After a very long time I am back again. It is high time to get ready for SSC (CGL)2016 Exam. It should be remembered that around 80-90 lakh students across India apply for this exam whereas vacancy varies from 10,000 to 20,000. So, the contest is very tough. This time, there is no interview..so, UR candidates have to score atleast 450 to get selected.Marks from 115-130 for tier-I & 220-235 in tier-II should be the target.You will have 100 minutes for Tier-I.Plan GA-20 mins for 35 Q, GI-35 mins for 45 Q , Eng-25 mins for 35Q & Mahts-20 mins for 25Q be the target. Read at least 8-10 hours daily GA-2hr, GI-1 hr , Eng-2.5 hr & Math-2.5 hr may be a good plan. Solve at least one set weekly to hit the bull's eye. Best of Luck to all...

LAST PHASE:

Commercial Banks working in India can be divided into two groups : Scheduled & Non- Scheduled Banks. Those banks which have been included in the Second Schedule of RBI Act , 1934. SBI & all its subsidiaries are scheduled banks i.e. SBI, Allahabad Bank, Bank of Baroda, UBI, PNB , UCO, Canara Bank etc.Some scheduled foreign banks working in India are Citi Bank, HSBC , Standard Chartered etc.
MISC.

After a very long time I am back again. It is high time to get ready for SSC (CGL)2016 Exam. It should be remembered that around 80-90 lakh students across India apply for this exam whereas vacancy varies from 10,000 to 20,000. So, the contest is very tough. This time, there is no interview..so, UR candidates have to score atleast 450 to get selected.Marks from 115-130 for tier-I & 220-235 in tier-II should be the target.You will have 100 minutes for Tier-I.Plan GA-20 mins for 35 Q, GI-35 mins for 45 Q , Eng-25 mins for 35Q & Mahts-20 mins for 25Q be the target. Read at least 8-10 hours daily GA-2hr, GI-1 hr , Eng-2.5 hr & Math-2.5 hr may be a good plan. Solve at least one set weekly to hit the bull's eye. Best of Luck to all...
