How I prepare for static gk for clat please suggest some interesting book because it is so boring

Hi Vani,

Firstly, let us first understand the pattern of the GK section of CLAT examination. So out of 200 marks, Gk comprises of 50 marks.

GK comprises of both Static GK & Current Affairs.

To study so many topics and to remember them is really difficult and boring. So, I would personally suggest you to first list down the topics that come under Static GK and keep updating yourself with Current Affairs.

Static GK can be understood by understanding each topic and also by solving as many questions as possible. Do not try to memorize as you would eventually forget the facts and figure.

Static GK is a very broader section, so first try covering the Static GK on India.

1. Cover all the capitals, currencies, dance forms, important days, National Parks & Wildlife Sanctuaries, Sports, Important days(National),  and Indian Awards

2. Once, you have covered these topics solve questions based on them.

3. Then go to International section, cover International Awards, International Sports, World Heritage sites, Important days (International)

4. Simultaneously keep preparing for Current Affairs and keep solviing as many questions as possible because it also holds an equal amount of weightage in CLAT Examination.

Even though you have prepared for maximum of all the topics, you should solve as many questions as possible as it would help you improve your score and gain maximum marks from this section.

So, I would personally suggest you to start giving mock tests for this section and try remebering Static GK/Current Affiars on a daily basis, spent nearly 2-3 hours in a day, as it will not burden you and simultaneously you can prepare for other subjects as well.

I have personally given weekly mock tests and it has helped me improve my score, there are also certain youtube videos that give daily Current Affairs questions.

I am providing with some links as it helped me in my preparation.

There is a channel they daily come with videos on Current Affairs, so you can see it. Also, they provide weekly mocks test series for GK so you can register yourself and try the mock tests, as it helped me improve my score.

Finally, I am again stressing on solve as many questions as possible because questions help you improve your score and help you understand your weaker areas.

Hey.

In case you want to refer to a book for Static GK for CLAT you can use the consized sized Pearson book for GK or the Lucent book. In case you want an interesting way of  preparing static GK then you can play GK quizes of the topics which will make it easier for you to grasp and will be interesting too.

Most of the topics which come repeatedly in the previous year papers are- Medievial and modern Indian history, Indian polity, Basic science, Indian geography, World geography -Countries, capitals and currencies, Environment  etc.

Make sure that you also go through past year papers to see the repeating questions and topics. Other than static GK most of the weightage is for Current affairs, so focus on that too.

Best of luck
