Competitive exams are meant for real-men and women. This is no country forcrybabies, kids, college teens and no0bs. So first of all, you must get rid of thefollowing loser mindsets:

1. Yaar this maths is so hard, I cant do it.

2. Im not from science/engineering background hence this is not my cup oftea.

3. Im poor in maths and I cannot improve.

4. Thik hai, dekh lenge. (alright, Ill see).

Maths is not difficult. All it requires is concept clarity + lot of practice.In SSC-CGL exam, youve to face Mathematics at two stages

Stage Maths-Questions Penalty

Tier-I (Prelims) 50 QsNegative0.25

Tier-II (Mains) Paper I: ArithmeticalAbility

100 Qs worth 200marks

Negative0.50

The Approach for Maths, stands on two pillars.

1. Conceptualclarity

1. NCERTs (Free download links @bottom)

2. Mrunal.org/aptitude

3. For some topics, directly Quantitative aptitude books.

2. Lot ofpractice

From Quantitative aptitude books.

There are lot of books in market, the question is,which one to refer? It is explained at the bottom ofthis article.

About Me


Well divide Maths or Quantitative Aptitude, into topics and furtherinto subtopics.

Your task is to cover one topic at a time, first get conceptual-clarityand then solve maximum questions at home.

Whenever you learn any shortcut technique, you note it down in yourdiary.

Similarly, whenever you make any mistake while solving sums, youalso note that down in your diary. Night before the exam, you reviewthat diary of mistakes. (why do this? Because it is the Art of Aptitude(Click ME)

Topic Subtopics How to approach

1. Permutation

2. Combination

3. Probability

Not asked as such.

But Sometimes a question ortwo comes in theReasoning portion ofTier-I. Hence not muchattention necessary.

But again, they too can besolved without mugging upformulas: go throughvarious articles onwww.Mrunal.org/aptitude

Lately SSC has startedasking 1-2 question in eachof Tier I and II. But they

1. CoordinateGeometry

can be solved by merelyplugging numbers in thereadymade formulas givenin your QuantitativeAptitude book.

2. Progression:Arithmetic+Geometry

Again, rarely asked in SSC.Sometimes a question ortwo comes in theReasoning portion of Tier-I.

Basically you just have toplug in the values informulas. Basics ofArithmetic progressionexplained in NCERT Class10 Chap 5.

3. Logerithms Not asked.

Misc.

Breakup: SSC-CGL Tier I (2010,2011, 2012)

Avg+alligation 3 3 2

TSD 6 5 2

algebra 6 0 5


DI 3 4 5

% 6 14 5

Trigonometry 0 0 9

Geometry 3 5 12

Total 50 50 50

The 2012s Tier-I paper, is trend-breaker. Because

1. The conventional questions from ratio-proportion, basic maths, time-speed-work are asked for namesake only.

2. Otherwise, Out of 50 Maths questions in tier-I, almost 30 questions arefrom just Geometry+Trig+Percentage application.

3. Earlier, they used to ask mostly area-volume-perimeter type questions fromGeometry segment. You just had to plug-in values into the formulas andget the answer.

4. But This 2012s paper has mostly theory based geometry (angle, bisector,tangent, inequality of triangles etc.)

5. Similarly the difficulty level of algebra, number theory based questions is bitraised.

Or perhaps SSC too decided to employ the BackbreakingTM move of UPSC!Anyways, jokes apart, the lesson here is, adapt.

Breakup: SSC-CGL Tier II (2010,2011, 2012)


Type 20102011 2012

basic math 11 4 3

Misc. 2 2 3

Trigonometry 0 4 8

Algebra 10 13 10

% 27 18 19

Geometry 14 10 27

Total 100 100 100

Here too, Geometry+Trigonometry have been given emphasis likenever before.

Almost 65% of the paper is made up of Geometry, Trig, Percentageand Algebra (and in that too, mostly Quadratic equations.)

Merely knowing the concepts or formulas wont help. Because unlessyou practice different variety of questions, you wont becomeproficient in applying those concepts flawlessly in the actual-exam.

Second, despite knowing concept and formulas, people make sillymistakes either in calculation or in pluging the values.

Third reason- Tier I has 200 questions in 120 limits. =not even 2minutes per question. Plus, questions reasoning and comprehensionmight take more than 5 minutes! Therefore speed is essential. Sincethere is negative marking system, accuracy also matters.

So it is beyond doubt that you have to practice excimer number ofquestions at home.

The question is where to get the practice? Which book should be usedfor SSC exam?

#2: Practice

Choice of Quantitative AptitudeBook?


In all competitive exams, uncertainity factor is involved. Despiteyour best preparation, you might lose the success-train by 2-3 marks.

Therefore you must never put all eggs in one basket.

While you are preparing for SSC, you should also keep open mind andapply for other competitive exams, such as IBPS, ACIO, ONGC,Railways, LIC, CDS, Coast Guard etc. (Depending on your career-taste).

Publication houses will come up with new books for each and every of^these exams, but we have neither the time nor the money to buy anew book for every new exam.

Such readymade books are only skimmed down version of originaltopicbooks. For example, if there is SSC-FCI exam, or ACIO exam,these people will combine a few topics of GK, maths, reasoning andenglish. And present you a book.

Problem= you dont get comprehensive understanding or coverage.Besides, given the population of India, competition level is alwayshigh, irrespective of exam. So half-hearted preparations withreadymade condensed books dont help much.

Almost all of these exams follow same structure:

1. General awareness

2. Maths

3. Reasoning (Verbal, Non-Verbal)

4. English vocabularly, grammar and comprehension.

How do they differ from each other?= number of questions, difficultylevel and inclusion / exclusion of particular subtopics.

So when youre picking up books for the first time, you should choosethe books, that have universal usefulness for similar exams. That wayyour time, effort and money will be saved.


DONOT use Quantitative Aptitude by R.S.Agarwal for SSC-CGL.

1. The way SSC-CGL question pattern is transforming, R.S.Agarwals book onQuantitative aptitude, is just not upto the mark to match this changingenvironment.

2. Its chapter on Trigonometry (Height and Distance) is simply insufficient tohandle SSC-CGL level bombarding.

3. Similarly coverage of algebra, quadratic equations and number theory iseither absent or just for namesake.

4. Geometry coverage is mostly confined to area-volume-perimeter(=mensuration). But SSC-CGL is moving towards Non-mensurationgeometry (angle, bisectors, midpoint, circles, triangles etc.)

5. The printing and presentation is very cluttered. He has written the bookassuming that you were already good at maths from school level.

6. If youre already good at basic concepts, use this book for practicing andimproving your speed, else dont bother, there are better books in market.

Author

Quantitative Aptitude For Competitive Examinations (S.Chand)R.S.Agarwal

Quantum CAT (Arihant)Sarvesh Kumar

Fast Track Objective Arithmetic (Arihant) Rajesh Verma

Books for Maths/QuantitativeAptitude

Problems with RS Agarwals Math book:

Pricing factor


The point is, both books of Arihant Publication (Sarvesh or Rajesh)are way better than R.S.Agarwal, in terms of content, presentation,language and coverage, without being too expensive thanR.S.Agarwals book.

And both of them have universal application for almost all of thecompetitive exams in India (for maths segment).

My advice, go with either Rajesh Verma or Sarvesh Kumar. Then thequestion, which one to pick up?

Fast Track ObjectiveArithmetic by RajeshVerma.

Quantam CAT by SarveshKumar


The size and pricefactor goes in favorof this book.

Concepts,techqniues,readymade formulasgiven here and there.Language,presentation is lucid.

Algebra, quadraticequation andTrigonometryspecific chapters aregiven for exclusivelyfor SSC.

If you solve all thesums of this book,then mathematicsportion of SSC-CGL(Tier-I and II) willbe as easy as a walkin the park.

Although book is written for CATand Management exams, he startsexplaining everything from basics.Then exercises are divided intoIntroductory

If you want to become truly invincible for the maths portion of any competitiveexam, then you must practice maximum numbers of questions at home andmaintain a diary of mistakes.This concludes how to approach Mathematics/Quantiative Aptitude for SSC-CGLexam.Now only two topics remain (will be discussed later, in separate articles):

1. How to approach Logical Reasoning

2. How to approach English vocabulary, grammar and comprehension
