If you plan well for the exam, we assure that you can crack this exam in your first attempt. But, you have to start your preparation from today.


Preparation Plan for each sectionรจ

SSC CGL Tier-1 Exam contains 4 sections which include Reasoning, Quantitative Aptitude, General English and General Awareness. It is very important to make a preparation strategy for the exam.

It is common knowledge that every body has his strengths and weaknesses. For competitive exams it is very important to understand your plus and minus points. While working on strengths gives us confidence, improving our weak points may become a big pain. It is not useful to worry about the cut-offs before the exams. It is fine to have the previous years' data but predicting the current years' cut-off will only lead to the wastage of time. Let us now come to the exact strategy.

Now, Tips for cracking each section are:

1. Reasoning –>
Reasoning is a test of observing our mental and problem solving ability. Reasoning is not like numerical skill where you learn some formula and solve question by applying that formula. You have to be very careful while answering these questions.

The most important questions from this section are on the topics such as
Seating Arrangements,
Syllogism,
Coding-Decoding,
Statement and Conclusions,
Directions,
Blood Relations,
Analogy,
Classification,
Series problems,
Ranking,
Data sufficiency,
 Assumptions and Directions.
Non-Verbal is the toughest of all.

Also, deals with maximum number of problems especially with problem figures and mirror images.

2. Quantitative Aptitude : This section is there in both Tier I and II Papers.
You should get good grip on all the basic concepts of maths to get good marks in this section. You have to improve your calculation speed. Practice more, it will help you getting good accuracy and speed.
Focus on:
Numerical Ability,
Probability,
Profit-Loss,
Interest,
Partnerships,
 Averages,
Time and Distances,
Speed and Distances,
Algebra and Trigonometry (focus more on these two areas, as these are new for banking aspirants).

The total weight-age of this section is 250 marks (50 marks in Tier I and 200 marks in Tier II). So try to score atleast 170 marks in this section (150 marks for non maths students).

3. General English –>Believe it or not, this is the scoring section for SSC CGL. English section is there for both the Tier I and Tier II SSC Exams. So, you have to keep this in your mind during your preparation. The weight age is also high for this section (50 marks in Tier I + 200 marks in Tier II).

So you have to score at least 160 to 225 marks in this section. Make your preparation plan according to it. The questions will be based on Passages, Common Errors, Cloze test, Antonyms and Synonyms. You have to improve your vocabulary.
  
4. General Awareness –>
General Awareness is the most important section of SSC CGL Tier-1 Exam. This section acquires more importance because this is the only section which can be attempted quickly and at the same time, very high marks can be scored in this section.

How many hours should I spend per a day ? It completely depends on you. If you are sincere and dedicated to your preparation, then 5 hours / day is enough. If not, you should spend the whole day. Let's do 1 thing. Instead of making time schedule, you just make the list of topics you should prepare per day. Based on it you can spend your day. No matter what you do during the whole day, you should complete those topics at the end of the day.
