I am having toothache from a while and my doctor has asked me to go for RCT. But because of my exams I won't be able to go for sittings really soon. Is it advisable to eat pain killers for long?

Obviously Its not advisable to take painkillers for long time. Spare some time ( at least 45 min. ) from your reading schedule and go to dentist and finish the first sitting, your pain will get relieved from that. than you can go for further sittings after your exams.

No, it is not advisable to be on painkiller for long. Also as the infection is there, it will worsen and the pain will also worsen.
Instead go for the first sitting of root canal, the dentist will remove the infection and put a medicated dressing which will give you some relief during your exams.
Taking painkiller is for temporary relief.. it's not the treatment.. better if u get d RCT started .. that wud relieve Ur pain.. and u can get d whole treatment done after Ur exams.. all d best for Ur exams .. wishing u a pain-free session
