The SEED sample papers are not a replacement for textbooks and other study material. The main function of sample papers is to be used as practice material only. The candidate will not be able to learn the basic concepts and theoretical aspects of the subjectwithout the relevant text books. The candidate must only start solving sample papers after they have completed the theoretical undestanding of the process. By solving sample papers, the candidate will be able to better understand the concepts and lean how to use them to solve problems.

Some experts suggest that you skip your GA preparation for now. Instead, you can start preparing for the section 45 days or so before the exam. The logic is, GA is more about theory than anything else. So, even if you must the subject now, you will have to do thorough revision closer to the exam to remember all the points. 

Also, you need not bother about the interview now. That part will be important only after the results are declared.
