Study Plan for SSC CGL 2019
Apart from reading the best references books for SSC CGL Tier 1, the successful candidates go through a specific time table for paving their ways to eminent positions. You cannot hit the nail on the head, if you give each section a straight away three-week time period and start preparing.Such study plans are of no use, as there are higher chances that you end up totally forgetting things you have studied in the very first week (that is, when you check on the progress later). So, allot time for each section and prepare accordingly.
Always keep in mind that each section is important even though there is no sectional cut-off. A nine-hour, serious preparation per day focusing on every section, would land you better scores.
However, a full-time employee may not be able to follow a nine-hour schedule. In those cases, he has to put in more hours over weekends and holidays to compensate the loss. It is as the famous quote of Thomas A. Edison goes, “There is no substitute for Hard Work.”

In the above roster, certain portions under each section might seem overlapping and you would feel bored going over similar stuff again and again. However, it is highly recommended that those segments should be given more prominence. Keep revising the portions even though you are done with it. For instance, you might have done with General Awareness Section by Day 20 (as per the given time schedule).
Avoiding going through the GK section and ignoring it after Day 21 is not advisable. So, it is better to browse through the already covered topics so that you can excel at the respective section very easily.
Once first 40 days are over, the same time schedule can be followed for another 40 days.
During the remaining 20 days, all that you should do is practice as many question papers and mock tests as you can. An hourly glimpse of the notes in the last few days before the exam is also a must task.
Work hard till the 100th day lest you fail in the examination.
