    SSC CGL Maths.

    Syllabus of SSC CGL Maths Section (for both Tier - I & II)

    A major change that take place in SSC exams syllabus was they started asking questions
    from Algebra, Trigonometry, Mensuration and Geometry HEAVILY. And the 'heavily'
    means almost 20-25 (out of 50 questions) questions in Tier - I and and 40-45 questions
    (out of 100) in Tier - II were asked from these four topics. However you should have clear

    How to prepare Quantitative Aptitude / Maths for SSC CGL


    Exam
    2/4
    As the topic of maths will be tested in both the tiers so you have to prepare this very
    seriously. So let's talk about the books/study material from which you will prepare this giant
    syllabus of SSC CGL maths.

    1. Quantum Cat by S.K. Verma: The ultimate masterpiece of maths. I can guarantee you're
    gonna keep this book with you forever. It's got everything that you need. You need
    concepts, formulas, short-cut methods it has everything.

    YOU JUST HAVE TO SOLVE THE INTRODUCTORY EXERCISES AND LEVEL - 1


    EXERCISES ONLY. THAT WILL BE ENOUGH FOR SSC MATHS.

    One of the important thing about this book it doesn't want you learn the short-cut methods
    blindly. All the short-cuts given in every chapter are in limited quantity and all of them are
    explained logically.

    2. SSC Maths Chapterwise Solved Papers since 1997-till date: It is very important to solve
    previous years questions by SSC. It will help you to understand what type of questions like
    to ask and what is the difficulty level of questions.

    Some important things that you should know about these resources

    Myth Quantum Cat, it is only for Management Exams: It is specially recommended for 4
    most important topics that is Mensuration, Trigonometry, Algebra and Geometry as it has
    better coverage over these topics. And it is the best book to polish your mind. And we have
    never recommended you to do all the exercises of Quantum Cat. We have recommended
    upto Level 1 only.

    1. Quantum Cat: You will start with rank 1 chapter i.e. Mensuration then 2 - Trigonometry
    and so on. Just solve introductory exercises and level 1 exercise only.

    2. SSC Maths Chapterwise: Why I need to solve the previous years questions. Well, the
    answer is very simple. It is important to understand what kind of questions SSC like to ask.
    What is the difficulty level of questions.

    So first Quantum Cat----> and then SSC Maths Chapterwise.

    Points to remember during the preparation of maths

    1. You can minimize the use of pen and paper in the exam hall. You should first try to solve
    the problem in brain and if it is solved without the help of pen and paper then it is very good
    because you will be able to other questions in that saved time.

    2. Instead of solving the questions at the bottom of the page solve them by plugging the
    values near the questions. In that way you don't have to look up and down on the question
    paper.
    3/4
    3. All the methods, rules, formulas and questions which are repeated most frequently in the
    should be on your finger tips. For eg. tables upto 20 & also square and cube table upto
    20.

    Just solve the questions, complete the books and win the game of SSC CGL. Good Luck!

    4/4
