Author: Anju Goswami
All the Whole year students went SSC Coaching Institute in Delhi but all are not selected because to clear any exam a strategy is more essential. SSC Coaching Centre Guid you, help you, but how manage your time is your own responsibilty. some guides are given below:
- Your most important source is the previous year question papers because many questions are repeated as it is. you just purchased a single book(Kiran Prakashan) containing previous year papers and solved it 3-4 times. After completing that book, you didn't feel the need to consult anything else and it actually worked for you.
- General Awareness - This section has the least benefit-cost ratio. You will invest more time, but your return will be low. Moreover you have found that Lucent's GK book has the best compilation, especially for CGL. So instead of referring multiple sources and wasting your limited time, just go for Lucent.
- Reasoning - Most scoring section of Tier-1, because the questions are pre-defined. Just practice the question papers, and you will definitely score well (you should at least get 40+ here, in less than 30 minutes).
- Quantitative Aptitude - Most important part of the syllabus. This is the section where you should devote most of your time. Just purchase any good book (Arihant is fine) and practice thoroughly. Mugging shortcuts will help you to get an edge over others. Try solving every question within 1 minute.
- English - Most tricky portion. Every section of this portion is unpredictable. You can't guess which idioms, antonyms, synonyms, phrasal verb, etc. will be asked. Error correction - at least prepare the rules used in previous year papers Idioms, One word substitution, Synonyms, etc. - Learn 10 words each, daily. Direct- Indirect and active-passive- Very scoring. Just mug the rules Comprehension - You can't do much here. Reading news paper can help.don't ignore the previous year question papers.
You can daily solve a previous year paper or a Mock test paper and try to do all 200 questions correctly within 2 hrs.if you start ssc preparation from 3-4 months before the exam, you will definitely clear you ssc cgl exam.
