    GK is unlike any other subject.
    To be a master in GK, it takes time. It requires patience.
    There is no book that can make you an expert in General Knowledge. The key is observation and curiosity is the second most important element in order to know about the world around you and the things that happened in past.
    Some of the important steps to follow are:

    -Don't depend on GK books.
