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.

Study current affairs of past 8-9 months at least including scheme based, policies & foreign affairs etc. Refer Lucent for General Knowledge.
