How To Prepare General Awareness For SSC CGL 1
1|Page
When starting to prepare for SSC one tends to focus more on the current affairs
section as this is the general requirement in various banking and other recruitment
exams. But as you can see the weightage of each subject in General Awareness, you
will notice that the weightage to the static portion is way higher than the current
affairs.
So you need to go about preparing for this section smartly. You must continuously
weigh the cost to benefit ratio while preparing for this section. You need to look at
how the paper setters have been leaning because otherwise preparing for this section
can get to be a never-ending task. For example, a new trend nowadays is higher
number of questions from the topic of Environment. It is also not wise to say ignore
current affairs completely, but do not invest too much time in them.
