The General Awareness section in the OICL Assistant Mains exam is not just a test of memory, it’s a test of awareness, comprehension, and relevance. Unlike static GK, current affairs demand consistent tracking of events across multiple domains such as politics, economy, international relations, sports, science, and government initiatives.
This section includes 50 questions, and a good score here can significantly boost your overall percentile. Moreover, current affairs are interlinked with other sections like Banking Awareness and Insurance Awareness, making it essential to prepare holistically.
