Only 18 days are left for SSC CGL 2026 Tier-1 (From today 12 Sep to 30 Sep). This is most crucial time. Do not start new topics. Follow this toppers strategy:
1. Focus on Mock Tests (Most Important): Give 1 full mock daily from 12 Sep to 29 Sep at same time as your exam shift (Example: If your shift is 9 AM, give mock at 9 AM daily). Analyse mock for 2 hours - Note down weak areas. SSC CGL Tier-1 is 60 Minutes with sectional timing? No, No sectional timing in CGL - 60 min for 100 Q. But practice with timer.
2. Revise Previous Year Papers (PYQ) - 20-30% Repeat: SSC repeats 20-30% questions from PYQ directly. Revise last 5 years CGL Tier-1 PYQ - Especially Maths (Arithmetic, Advance), Reasoning, English Vocab, GK (History, Polity, Science). For Assam students, focus on English - Most failing section.
3. Current Affairs - Last 6 Months Only: Prepare current affairs from March to September 2026 - Focus on Awards, Sports (Olympics 2026), Government Schemes, Appointments, Summits, Science & Technology, Defence. Do not prepare 1 year current - Waste of time.
4. Don't Learn New Topics: If you have not studied Advance Maths (Geometry, Trigonometry) till now, don't start now. Revise what you already know - Arithmetic, Algebra, Reasoning, English Grammar. New topic will take 3-4 days and you will forget old.
