I am hereby sharing my success story with PracticeMock, but before I start I would like the aspirants those who are preparing for SSC CGL that you will have to give your best shot without loosing your confidence.

Section-wise Preparation Strategy

English Section Preparation Strategy

As far as english section is concerned one must read news & other magazines thoroughly. Practice as many questions as possible related to the below topics:

  • Idioms & Phrases
  • One word Substitution
  • Common confusing word
  • Antonyms & Synonyms

Other than these master vocabulary as much as you can. Also, knowing the basis of grammar thoroughly will be really helpful in scoring good in this section. after you have cleared all yoru basics of every topic & practiced different types of questions, it is important to pick up previous years papers and practice questions from that. past 5 years of papers can be really helpful. english by Neetu Singh Vol 1+Vol 2 will also be of great help.

For Arithmetic I focussed on profit & loss, time & work, SI & CI. Practice previous 5 years questions.

Reasoning Section Preparation Strategy

Practice analogy, coding decoding questions. Learn squares, cubes and practice questions based on other mathematical operations including identifying of figure based questions such as mirror image etc.

Static GK plays an important role in clearing SSC CGL exam. Around 60-65% weightage is being given to static GK that includes history, geography, economics, politics & science. As far as science is concerned science of upto 10th standard is to be learned thoroughly. Physics, chemistry & biology are important. Study current affairs of past 8-9 months at least including scheme based, policies & foreign affairs etc. Refer Lucent for General Knowledge. I have even practiced current affairs quizzes from practicemock.
