Hi,
You can take some cues from my preparation strategy for SSC CGL. I was able to secure 165 in English Tier-2 in SSC CGL 2016 exam. I was in a habit of reading The Hindu newspaper. I think, it is one of the biggest contributor to my success. I used to read it for 1- 1.5 hours right from Front page, Editorial, Business, and Sports, National, International and some other news. So, indirectly, over a period of times, my English interpretation skills improved a lot. Reading improves Reading Comprehension, Vocabulary, Sentence formation and I found occasional Idioms and phrases. Additionally it helped me in General Awareness. This is how Newspaper works: If you read it daily, you come across many words. These words repeats in many news. So, naturally your vocabulary gets a strong boost. You come across many phrases and Idioms and if you read them with a context, you will never forget them. Editorials help you in Grammar, sentence formation etc. So, Newspaper is a complete package if it is taken seriously for 34 months before the exam. Give at least 60 - 90 minutes daily without fail. I love reading books. Though I am a novel freak since college days but the habit took a backseat in 2014 due to job and other commitments. Then during preparation, I started with a book, The Startup Nation (Excellent book on entrepreneurial spirit of Israel) followed by other books. I used to read books in night 12 hours. Non-Fiction stuff is best. I bought a book, General English by S. P Bakshi and followed it chapter by chapter. My way around was as follows : I read a chapter, note down some important points, grammar rules in a notebook and practice some questions at the end of the chapter. Did it for every chapter so at the end of it, I had almost all the grammar and other English rules. Used to revise them daily for half an hour. So, I remembered most of them during real exam and helped me a lot in Choose the best alternativetype of questions. Start with Tenses. Tenses are the foundation of English. Revise tenses daily, takes only 67 minutes for all the rules and see your confidence boost. Made a notebook for vocabulary. From A-Z, I completed in some 15 days. Revised almost daily and got a good grasp. Words from newspapers and previous year papers formed an important part. With words, write their most important synonym and antonym.
