Hey,

It all depend on your interest which subject you really like the most.

Usually, SSC asks 5-6 questions from this section amounting to 10-12 marks.

BA history (hons)  involves the study of subjects such as History of India, Social Formations and Cultural Patterns of the Ancient World, Medieval World, History of Modern West, and the History of Modern Europe.

It will help to cover the required topics thoroughly.

But it is not necessary to opt for any specific degree as the exam include the general things about the subjects coming under the exam syllabus.So prepare accordingly.

Thank you!!!

Hello,

First of all for SSC CGL Eligibility Criteria is passed Bachelor's Degree in any discipline from a recognized university, except few posts where it differs.

SSC CGL is conducted in four level, in Tier I exam it has four sections such as English, Quant, Reasoning, General Awareness while in Tier II it has English and Maths(for other posts there are additional subjects such as Statistics for JSO and general studies consisting of economics and finance for AAO), then there is descriptive test which is conducted in offline mode including essay,letter, application or prcis and in Tier IV we have data entry or computer proficiency test.

Now, SSC CGL isn't only limited to General Studies, in fact if you see Maths and English have been given more weightage in Tier I as well as II, so you have to prepare for all the sections with special emphasis on these subjects. First get acquainted with the syllabus which you can get through official website of SSC.

You can go through following books to initiate your preparation;

For Quant, you can use RK Agarwal's Quantitative Aptitide for Competitive Exam, M Tyra's Quicker Maths, Fast Track Objective Mathematics by Arihant

For Reasoning, you can use RK Agarwal's Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasining , MK Pandey's Analytical Reasoning

For English, refer Wren and Martin for Grammar, and Objective General English by SP Bakshi.

For static portion of General Awareness, Lucent's GK is best, while the dynamic portion can be covered by reading newspaper on a daily basis, you can choose The Hindu, it'll help you in English as well.

Go through previous year paper, SSC often repeats its question, also apply mock papers for different section which are freely available at various competitive exam sites.
