Dear Reader,

If your main aim is to crack UPSC and your GS is weak although your maths and english is well then you should focus on GS by solving practice sets on regular basis and also for general knowledge you have to keep yourself up to date by focusing on daily current affairs.As in starting nobody is good in any subjects or anything it's proper time management and hardwork which makes them good in that.So don't start studying GS thinking that it's your weak area,take interest in any subject firstly and enjoy studying them things automatically become easier for you.And if you makes yours plans with SSC now then it's true that the selection procedure of SSC CGL takes times but you have to be positive also don't come in people hear saying that it's a long process and time taking process,your main aim is to clear SSC CGL so only focus on that as think positive good things always take time .So,be positive and focus on your goals not on people hear saying.Hardwork,proper time management and execution of study plans them all look easier.

Yeah! Its true, that the results of SSC CGL are delayed and the recruitment isn't that smooth as compared to that of the UPSC CSE. Now see if you have strong Mathematics and English then SSC is a good choice for you. If your GS is weak because you can't remember or retain fact, then if you go for the UPSC then you need to work hard to master the skill of retaining facts by rigorous practice. Now the UPSC preparation is time consuming, so you need to target atleast 2 years of preparation to get all the things done upto a level required for the examination. So as a result, both examination have merits and demerits of there own and you can't change only for the merit of the recruitment time.

I would recommend you to go for UPSC CSE preparation if and only if you are interested in the service and you are up to read the Subjects such as Polity, History, geography, etc. So you need to first clear your interest and then choose any of it. That will be much fruitful compared to that of just changing it due to the recruitment time.
