9. Preparation Tips for SSC CGL 2023

The way to success is never easier if you really don’t have the passion to earn it. So, try to learn in small chunks by keeping limited number of targets per day so that you will feel some form of accomplishment that help you to be consistent throughout the process. After learning each module, test yourself with previous year question papers and analysis where you have gone wrong. And focus on your weak points and practice using a timer for better results.
