I am working in Full time job; How to prepare for SSC CGL
Preparing for SSC CGL 2017, while having a full-time job, is definitely not an easy thing to do. Here are two important reasons for that:
1. Lack of time: Of the available 24 hours in a day, if you deduct work hours, travel time and the time allotted to sleep, one would be left with not more than 6 hours per day. It becomes crucial to use this miniscule amount of time in the best manner possible.
2. Lack of Energy: Well, after a long day’s work, the last thing you would like to do is get to bed for a much needed sleep and not look to prepare intensively for an exam. This is where your motivation to crack the exam plays an important role.
Wait!
Here is the solution: A person with a full-time job can also crack the exam comfortably, if he puts his/ her heart, mind and soul into the preparation. It is the quality of preparation that matters, not the quantity of time spent.
Quick tip: General awareness during the mornings will help you memorise information quickly.You may also read newspapers and take up notes from them for future reference.Reserve evenings to prepare for other sections.
Keeping this in mind, we suggest you to prepare a time-table based on the time that’s available to you.
Study plan you can use: With 3 hours to spare every day, this is how your daily time table should look like:
|
Section |
Time |
|
General Awareness |
45 min |
|
Quantitative Aptitude |
45 min |
|
General Intelligence & Reasoning |
45 min |
|

Personalize your time-table based on your preferences and time availability. Identify your weak areas and spend more time on those topics.
The more time you have at your disposal, the better. But ensure that every second that you spend on preparation is made perfect use of. Avoid distractions.
Weekends are gold: Use the weekends to the maximum. Increase the time you spend on each section. Also devote time for topics that you are weak at.
