The General Awareness section is the most unpredictable section of the SSC CHSL exam. The questions asked in the SSC CHSL exam in April were of moderate level. General Awareness section questions were asked from the current affairs.
The candidates find it difficult to cover the syllabus of the General Awareness section because of its horizontal expansion. The number of topics that are required to be covered in General Awareness is very difficult to cover. The candidates need to retain the facts and figures and choose the correct answer from the visible confusing options.
Current Affairs plays a crucial role in the General Awareness section, as most of the questions are asked from the recent past only. The Current affairs change daily and the candidate needs to prepare it regularly so that they can answer the questions correctly in the exam.
