How to Crack SSC CGL 2016 in 4 months

 
Hello Friends,
We are sharing with you some preparation strategy and tips for SSC
CGL 2016 Tier I.First note that all aspirants have their own preparation
strategies,strong and weak points and their own situations so may be
these tips are helpful or may not be helpful so don't confuse and stick to
your plan and be confident.So here are the tips :

1.You have 4 months from now and these 4 months will decide
your future of 40 years.your single day of these four months will
decide your 120 days of your upcoming
life.so decision is yours so don't waste a single day of your life because
now in SSC competition is really tough.All aspirants who are preparing
for UPSC, PSC are giving SSC as backup plan.All those who are
already working in Central government(as non interview posts),in
Banks(as PO,AO and Clerk ) and in private companies are preparing
for SSC. Some CAT aspirants and students from NITs are also take
SSC as back up plan.So try to get good marks in Tier 1 because due to
tough competition if you will just on the boundary line or 5-10 marks
above cut off you have to perform extra-ordinary in Tier 2 because all
others are already get lead in Tier 1 and one more thing, this
preparation for Tier 1 will also help in Tier 2.If you are prepared well for
tier 1 only you need to practice mocks for Tier 2 in Maths and English.

2.Don't distract from technology or any other activity.
Fix a time for whtsapp and Facebook or calling to your friend.Turn off
your net while doing study and stay away from mobile and laptop. Don't
be a slave of Technology.

3.Is attending Coaching is Necessary for selection.
If you have time and your concepts are not clear and if you think that
you cannot get selection then you can take coaching but remember
some points that don't even think that you can not get selection without
coaching.In CGL 13, CGL 14 there are large number of candidates
those are selected by self study.Some times you become completely
dependent on coaching that when Sir/madam complete the syllabus I
will also complete that and when syllabus is completed you have no
time to do mock test.It also happen that due to taking coaching you are
not able to do self study so self study is very important with
coaching.Sometimes 4 hours of self study at home will better that 2
hour of class because when you take class in coaching of two hours
actually your 6-7 hours will consumed. So if you are taking any coaching
try to make best use of it and some times you will be demotivated and
bored with studies and some negative thoughts appears on your mind
so you can take any coaching or mock test to be regular and keep in
touch with other students.(Thoda hafte me do-teen bar ghumna bhi
jaruuri hai)But if you are not financially strong, no need for any coaching,
self study is sufficient.So decision is upto you to do or not to do
Coaching.If you do coaching, make best use of it.

4.How many hour should I study.
See You need a time table for study and fix your number of hours for
study but don't think that if you study 3 hours only you cannot selected
and if you study 6 hours you will definitely selected.I am giving you a
example.Suppose a aspirant is already prepared for CAT in B-tech Final
year but not able to score good to get in Top College so he joined any
private company through campus selection and after 2 years in that job
now he is preparing for SSC. Now that aspirant already prepared well
for English,Maths and Reasoning in B tech.So even if he study 2-4
hours daily without any coaching and 6-7 hours in Weekends it is
sufficient for him because he has to prepare only for GK and has to
practice some mock test but in other case for Example if any Graduate
from Science stream has not studied Maths and English, he has to
prepare very hard because all the syllabus is new for him and he has to
start from scratch and clear his basics.You he need to give his full timeand give their best for studies.So I am trying to say that try to study as
much as u can.Don't think that for selection a specific number of hours
you have to study.It differs from person to person and depend on
intelligence level and preparation level.

5.Should I leave my Job for Study:
Answer of this question depend on your condition which is differs from
person to person.Resigning from any job is very tough decision and
effects a lot in complete career and decision is to be taken very
wisely.One point to be noted that 35-50% candidates who got Interview
posts already in Job.So don't think that you have to leave your job for
study.If you are in private job it is really tough task to prepare for SSC
because you have to change your stream and very risky because you
bet your career,your Rating or bands and Promotion .In my opinion
Don't Resign from any company,forget about rating,promotion.It is really
tough to get good rating and promotion and Selection in SSC both so
you have to compromise. Try to make best use of your office.For
example in free time you can read pdf of English Vocabulary or rules on
your PC or mobile.(I used to make excel of Word list and paste in
Oracle SQL and read it :-P and if you are reading pdf on mobile no one
knows what are you doing).Try to make best use of lunch time and
breakfast time. Don't waste your single minute in gossip.Don't tell any
one in Office that you are preparing for Government jobs even to your
best friend in office.Try to get long leave of 15-20 days before exams
and study daily 4-5 hours in the morning and evening and in weekends
8-10 hours.In office try to study 1-2 hours in free time.If you are
working I advice you to live in single room or with or without partner.If
you live in Flat with group of friends you have to participate in Weekend
parties and it is really disturbing.Forget your weekends for Parties or
Shopping.These weekend time is really precious and don't waste it.

6.How to prepare for GK in three months
For GK recommend book is Lucent and you can also buy Arihant Gk
Book.Don't follow any capsule for GK from any website because SSC
GK is too vast and even you study complete Lucent you will be able to
20-35 questions only so how can a capsule of 100 page is useful.In GK
read Lucent book or Arihant Gk Book first and current affairs of 9-12
months from date of Examination and if you have time, you can also
consult any notes, capsule or NCERT books.GK is infinite so you can
study as much as u can but GK weightege is 50/600 marks so dont try
to give too much on GK because.Try to give more time on English and
Maths that will also in Tier II.You can also refer kiran or GhatnaChakra
or any other books or coaching material for reference.For working
people we suggest that first they cover Lucent.

7.How to prepare for reasoning in four months
SSC reasoning is very easy and it requires good speed and
accuracy.For reasoning recommended book is R.S. Agrawal(Click here
to buy).For reasoning you can buy Chapterwise Kiran Reasoning
previous Year papers.of SSC so that you will get fair idea of questions
of SSC Examination.For working people we suggest to solve Chapter
wise questions of previous years paper of SSC.

8.How to prepare for English in four months.
Tier I English is divided into 3 parts(Grammar,Vocab/Idioms,Unseen
passage)
First Clear your grammar basics first.You can refer any book like
S.P. Bakshi(In English),or A mirror of Common errors by Ashok Kumar
Singh(in Hindi),or Plinth to Paramount or your coaching notes and
previous years paper of Kiran Chapterwise(In english) or Previous
years paper of SSC of English by Ajay Kumar SIngh(In Hindi language).
If you practice more your accuracy will increase and may be you will
able to find question in exam that you already had done in practice
because some question of grammar are repeated or some little change
in questions.
Second is good command in vocabulary:
For vocabulary recommended book is Word Power made Easy by
Norman Lewis.Try to complete this book.Word of this books comes in
different examination.Some Pdf for vocabulary is already shared in our
website you can also refer them.Try to mug Idioms and phrases as
much u can
Third is Unseen passage.
If you want to improve your English Read Hindu News Paper daily either
online or offline.Reading this newspaper gives you good command in
Vocabulary and Unseen Passage and Parajumbling.
If you don't like to read Hindu you also refer any small novel or article
published in any Paper if you have time to study.

9.How to prepare for maths in four months.

Recommend books for clearing your basics in Maths are Sarvesh
Kumar Verma(Arihant Prakashan) or Quantitative Aptitude by Arun
Sharma.You need to study concepts from any of these books and
workout some examples and try to solve level of difficulty one questions
only.Around 12 chapters are there and 50-60 questions per chapter are
there so you need to solve total of 600-800 questions after studying
concept and examples.I do't think it is very tough task as it appeared to
students that how can i solve these books so don't fear from Maths and
try to solve questions.Any of these two books are required if you are
doing self study.After clearing your concepts you need to solve Mock
test as much as u can and previous years questions also.In CGL 12questions level are really tough and questions are not repeated but in
CGL 14 some questions are repeated and based on old pattern and
some change in Data and some news questions are also there.So If
you have time We recommend you to solve SSC Previous years
chapter wise questions by Kiran for mathematics(In english Language)
or SSC Previous years chapter wise questions by GhatnaChakra(In
Hindi launguage) or any other book.You can also refer Paramount book
for Maths.Its upto your choice which book you like but whichever book
you like try to complete it first and then go to other book
