SSC CGL 2021-22 Syllabus

Since one month is remaining for the exam, it is expected that the candidates have prepared all the topics.
The candidates should try to solve the previous year's question paper in the exam-like conditions in a time-bound manner. The real-time practice with the official question papers will give a clear understanding of the SSC CGL exam pattern. The Commission releases the SSC CGL question papers after the result and mentions the candidate's response and official answer key.

SSC CGL 2021-22 Study Plan
Candidates should prepare a study plan incorporating the time for the topic understanding, practice, time-bound previous paper solution, and revision. The candidates should make the study plan based on their affinity for the topics. The candidates should assign more time to the topics that seem difficult to the candidate and less time to those topics which they find easy and require less practice.
SSC CGL 2021-22: How to practice?
The candidates must practice with the questions given in the standard textbooks and the practice papers freely available for the exam. The candidates can also practice with the readily available applications specifically meant for the SSC CGL exam.
The candidates should do practice for each topic separately because no topics can be said as important. There is no weight-age provided to any topic in the official syllabus.
SSC CGL 2021-22 Time Management Tips

So here speed, time and accuracy become the important factors in the exam. SSC CGL's previous year's question papers can help the candidates here.

The candidate should try to solve the questions in their mind without using pen and paper. If they do so, their chances of selection increase manifolds.
SSC CGL 2021-22 Revision Tips
Revision is the most overlooked aspect of the SSC CGL preparation. The candidates must practice with the previous year's question papers and check their answers. The candidates should give more time for revision where the candidates are taking more time to recall the basic formulae or concepts and where the answers are getting wrong while solving the previous years’ questions.
Accuracy
Accuracy plays a very important role in the exam. But accuracy comes with practice and revision. The candidate should learn the mathematics table till 50 or more. This will help in speeding up the calculations. For the English section, the candidate must learn the exceptions. The exceptions play an important role because, in the exam paper, exceptions are the fundamental part of the paper.
One hour of daily revision is essential in case all the aforesaid things are done simultaneously.
One around one month is left for the exam. Staff Selection Commission (SSC) will release the application status and CGL admit card 2022 fifteen days before the exam date. SSC CGL 2021-22 notification was released on December 23 and the number of vacancies was not mentioned by the commission.
