5 Tips to remember when learning General Knowledge and General Awareness

  • Important Topics to Practice: Students will use the above-mentioned chapter-by-chapter review to concentrate on the most critical topics.
  • Read the complete question first: Students must stop making the mistake of reading incomplete questions and, as a result, arrive at incorrect responses. Read the questions closely to make sure you understand what’s being asked.
  • Regular Practice: To boost your efficiency and precision, make it a habit to practice previous year papers and mock tests every day.
  • Avoid any guesswork: Guesswork will lead to incorrect results, resulting in more negative marks. Even if you are unsure about the correct answer, don’t spend too much time on one question and move on to the next.
  • Focus on weak areas: First, try to concentrate on the weak areas & devote more effort to enhancing them. Spend more time on weak areas & less time on your key strengths
