SSC CGL Tier 2 : Maths Study Plan

Section-1: Vocabulary Section
This section is very interesting because you can easily score maximum marks in Vocab section. All you need to do is just Read English Newspaper, magazine or any article written in standard English. Once you understand the literal and figurative meaning of the English words, it would be easier to answer correctly all the questions based on Synonyms, Antonyms, One-word substitutions, fill in the blanks and idioms/phrases. The only trick is to revise it daily without fail.The revision should be very intense and exhaustive. we have provided The Hindu Newspaper Editorial vocabulary, read all these words daily just 15 min. and you will cover more than 100 words, you will find all these words in the exam. For one word substitutions and idioms, we have provided all important and previous years questions.
Section-2: Grammatical Section 
Grammatical part solely depends on rules. Once you remember and understand all the important rules, this part can we cracked very easily. Again, revision is the key here also. Most of the grammatical part is made of Parts of speech. You need to once go through all the parts of speech and the rules based on these grammatical terms. we have provided “100 Most Important Grammar Rules | SSC CGL Tier-II 2017”. This grammatical part plays an indispensable role in every type of questions in English section. Learn all the tenses and its usage.

Section-3: Comprehensive Section 
For these type of questions, you need to solve 5 comprehensions and cloze tests daily. Reading habits will help you in solving Jumbled Paragraphs, Voice, Narration, cloze tests and Reading Comprehension Questions. Such questions are asked to check your understanding of Engish language especially your reading habits. If you are used to reading books, novel etc in English language, then it will come naturally to you. You can easily understand the context and you can answer all the questions based on it. The important trick is to read the questions first, so that you can understand the context of the paragraph beforehand, while you read the passage very first time, you will find the answer to all the questions which you have already read. In this way, you can save precious time by not reading passage all over again for each question. when you study in these remaining days, follow this trick, it will help you tremendously.
For an overall understanding of English Language, Students need to cultivate reading habits. Now Since, as you don’t have much time left for the SSC CGL Tier-2 Exam 2017,  read a newspaper daily and practice questions and mock tests as much as you can. Focus on your positive areas and make sure you score best in such topics. For Sentence Improvements, knowledge of tenses, sentence structure is required. So, learn and memorise important structures in the English language. For Error Detection, Knowledge of Subject-verb agreement, pronouns, adjectives, conjunctions, determiners, and tenses is required. Revise and learn all important rules for this section. For Fill in the blank type Questions, Focus on Prepositions/phrasal verbs and vocabulary. Questions are asked from these two topics. For One Word Substitution, memorise all important and frequently asked at least 300 words. For Idioms/Phrases, memorise all important and frequently asked at least 300 words/phrases. For Comprehension, Practice mock tests. For Antonym/Synonym/Spellings, learn, memorise and practice mock tests.  Always maintain a personal vocab diary, note down all the important vocabulary that you encounter in your newspaper reading. This habit will benefit you a lot.
How many hours should you Study Every day? 
It completely depends on you. If you are sincere and dedicated to your preparation, then 8 to 11 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 utilize your day. You should divide your time accordingly because a working person will have a different schedule than a non-working person.
Revision is the Most Important Aspect CGL Tier-2 2017

Make your habit to revise the topics you read, write down the important things, maths formula (which makes you time consuming).
