CGL notification came, we got one and a half month. CHSL notification came, we got only 2 months. That means now, we understand that these days, they don't give much of a gap between notification and exam time. Earlier they used to give a gap of 3-4-5 months. Cracking the SSC CHSL (Staff Selection Commission – Combined Higher Secondary Level) exam unlocks secure and prestigious government careers for 12th-pass students.

Introduction : 

Now let's know the story after this, what can we do now. Ok, at least the mistake was made. Now, I am telling you clearly, look, I will not make you wonder, now prepare, now the exam has come, what should we do, no, it will not happen, I will make you face the reality, it may be difficult for you to digest some realities that what I will say is there now, but this is the reality, right son, so we have to focus a little on the reality. The first mistake that we made was that we took CHSL lightly, that oh, okay, okay? If you are thinking that you are preparing for CHSL now and at the time of preparing for CHSL, it is okay, no, I will do it next year.

 If you are focused for the next year, look, I am telling you two ways. If you are thinking that it will not be possible for me to prepare for 2 months by doing all the strategies 'and that means, I will not be able to work so hard. So, I am telling you to be very honest, to leave this year's CSSL and focus on the 2026 exam. 

If you want this, then watch this session. Isn't it? Look, there are only two ways. This is the reality. If you can prepare hard for 2 months or not, I will do all that, only then should you think of 2025, otherwise target 2026 and don't waste these 2 months. I will personally tell you this. Yes, definitely give the exam.

 I will also say that you should definitely give the exam so that you get an idea of how much milk and how much water you are in. Okay? Now let me tell you, if I talk about the vacancies right now, we have 3131 vacancies. You had 3131 vacancies. Now what can we do for this vacancy so that we can prepare within 2 months. Tier 1 has not come out. Tier 1 will come out.

Understanding the SSC CHSL Exam Pattern : 

Before you start, know what you’re preparing for:

If you prepare, but for Tier -2, don't even think that you will be ready. However, you will get time in Tier 2. So, right now let's focus on Tier 1. Now tell me what do we have to study for Tier First?

We all know, what we have to study for Tier -1. We know that for Tier 1, we have to study Maths, we have to study Reasoning and we have to study Maths, Reasoning, English and GK GS. Now what should we study in GK GS? First, I will take GK and GS. If I take GK and GS. So now here, we can see that I had got an analysis done. I got it done by everyone. Now, I am saying here that look brother, in GK and GS also has a good weightage. So, for that we should study History, study PT, study theory completely, don't study. If you study theory, you will not be able to do it. 

Time  Required to Prepare for SSC CHSL

•  Preparation Time: 

6–12 months is the standard recommendation for serious aspirants, especially, if you’re starting from scratch or looking for a high score. This period allows you to build concepts, practice, take mocks and revise.

• Daily Study Hours:
  
  5–6 hours/day for 6–7 months is considered enough for most, provided you follow a structured plan.

Whatever exams you have taken, whatever exams you have taken, take out the current affairs paper of all those exams and see which topics and which issues were asked. You can be sure that whatever questions or topics of the paper. You will read, your questions will be copied and pasted from here only. So, you will not have to work hard in current affairs because current affairs will carry a lot of weightage for you. So, see the current affairs of all the exams that have taken place in the last 6 months or 12 months or 8 months. You will realize that the topics coming from everyone are the same. First of all, the current affairs will be done from here. Apart from this, do not think too much about current affairs., wherever you see the current affairs of 6th month and 12th month together. Take those topics and those classes. Your current affairs will be solved from here and rest just solve MCQs. 

Step-by-Step Strategy for SSC CHSL Preparation

1. Get the Syllabus and Exam Pattern

• Find out  the updated syllabus and Go through  all topics for English, Maths, Reasoning, and GK.

2. Follow Realistic Study Plan

• Start with basics, spend equal  time on each subject daily ( Spend 1 hour to each)
• Revise daily for practice questions or mock tests.

Don't waste time by studying theory here. Now,  let's talk about History and Geography. If you avoid a little in History and Geography. Solve questions only. In this case, do only questions because now there is no time left to read everyone's theory.

You look at the previous year question paper. I am telling you even now. There are 2 months left. Look at the previous year question paper. Look at the papers of 5 years. Look at History in that, which topics of History are being asked. Geography and that's it, what to do only and only? Solve their questions. Solve as many questions as you can. Save time like this. Now when you solve questions for three-four days in this, then you will understand that friend, I get stuck on this topic every time. Suppose you guys got four such topics that we are never able to make questions on. Then, you just study the theory of those four six seven topics.
