LIC HFL Assistant/Associate · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 6 hours per week

Week 1

Numerical Ability / Quantitative Aptitude & Reasoning Ability

  • Diagnose baseline accuracy in arithmetic (percentages, ratio, averages, profit-loss) by solving 40 mixed questions and logging error types

  • Build a personal formula sheet covering percentage, ratio-proportion, average, and simple/compound interest with one worked example each

  • Drill 15 simplification and approximation questions daily to cut calculation time

  • Solve 20 seating-arrangement and 20 blood-relation reasoning questions to identify weak sub-types

Your checkpoint

An error log spreadsheet with 80+ tagged questions and a one-page formula sheet

Week 2

Numerical Ability / Quantitative Aptitude & Reasoning Ability

  • Master time-speed-distance and time-and-work using the unit-method and LCM shortcut on 50 questions

  • Complete 40 data-interpretation questions across table, bar, and pie formats with a 90-second-per-question cap

  • Practise 30 syllogism and 30 inequality reasoning questions using Venn and number-line methods

  • Review week-1 error log and re-solve every missed question without notes

Your checkpoint

A timed 30-question DI and arithmetic mock scored and analysed for accuracy and speed

Week 3

Numerical Ability / Quantitative Aptitude & Reasoning Ability

  • Cover mensuration and geometry basics (area, perimeter, volume) with 30 applied questions

  • Solve 30 number-series and 30 coding-decoding reasoning questions

  • Introduce permutation-combination and probability at the level asked in the exam through 25 questions

  • Set a per-section time budget by simulating a 35-question quantitative set under exam timing

Your checkpoint

A completed quantitative sectional test (35 questions) with a scored breakdown by topic

Week 4

English Language & Numerical Ability / Quantitative Aptitude

  • Read one editorial daily and extract 10 vocabulary words with usage sentences

  • Complete 60 error-spotting and 60 fill-in-the-blank English questions focusing on grammar rules

  • Revise all quantitative formulas and re-attempt the weakest 40 tagged questions

  • Practise 20 para-jumble and 20 cloze-test questions

Your checkpoint

A vocabulary notebook of 60+ words and a scored 25-question English sectional test

Week 5

General Awareness (with focus on banking, financial and housing-finance awareness) & English Language

  • Build a dated timeline of RBI monetary policy actions and key banking-sector developments from the past 12 months

  • Memorise the structure and key facts about housing-finance institutions, NHB, PMAY, and mortgage-linked schemes

  • Cover banking awareness essentials: types of accounts, negotiable instruments, NPA classification, and priority-sector lending

  • Revise financial-awareness topics: budget terms, inflation measures, and major regulators

  • Solve 40 puzzles and 30 input-output or machine-input reasoning sets under time pressure

  • Take a 50-question general-awareness mock and log every unfamiliar fact

Your checkpoint

A scored 50-question GA mock with a corrected fact sheet of every missed item

Week 7

English Language & Reasoning Ability

  • Take two full-length English mocks and two reasoning mocks, each followed by a same-day error review

  • Refine a section-order and skip strategy based on mock performance

  • Re-drill the 30 highest-frequency error types across English and reasoning

  • Practise 20 statement-assumption and 20 statement-argument questions

Your checkpoint

A mock-performance tracker showing accuracy and attempt-rate trends across four sectional mocks

Week 8

Numerical Ability / Quantitative Aptitude & General Awareness (with focus on banking, financial and housing-finance awareness)

  • Take three full-length simulated tests covering all four sections under official timing

  • Revise the formula sheet, GA fact sheet, and vocabulary notebook in two consolidated passes

  • Re-solve every question missed in week-7 mocks to confirm the fix

  • Finalise a day-before checklist covering timing, section order, and stress management

Your checkpoint

Three completed full-length mocks with a final one-page revision sheet and a written exam-day strategy

Milestones

Week 2: Score at least 60% on a timed 30-question arithmetic-plus-DI set and finish within the target time
