General Awareness is the shortest section to attempt and the hardest to prepare, because there is no method to fall back on — you either know the fact or you do not. Twenty-five questions in Tier I are usually finished in six or seven minutes, which makes GA the section that buys time for maths. Every mark you leave here is a mark you have to earn back under a much tighter clock.

This page splits General Awareness into twenty chapters so you can prepare it the way it is actually asked: ancient, medieval and modern history separately; Indian and world geography separately; polity, economics, physics, chemistry and biology on their own; and static GK broken into books and authors, awards, important days, sports, government schemes, organisations and miscellaneous. Current affairs has its own chapter and is refreshed continuously.

How Many GK Questions Are Asked in SSC CGL?

General Awareness is worth 50 marks in Tier I and 75 marks in Tier II Paper I, and unlike the other sections it cannot be solved on the spot — it is entirely revision-driven.

Tier I runs on locked sectional timing from the 2026 cycle — you cannot carry unused minutes from one section into the next, which is exactly why chapter-level speed matters.

Chapter-wise weightage in SSC CGL Tier I GK

Typical spread seen across recent SSC CGL Tier I shifts. SSC does not publish a chapter-wise breakup, so treat these as planning ranges, not guarantees — the section total is always 25 questions / 50 marks.

How the GK Chapter Wise Tests Work

Every chapter on this page opens the same test player. You pick a level, pick a test number, choose English or Hindi, and choose whether you want the clock running.

• 50 questions per test, with a full question palette (answered, skipped, marked for review).
• Optional 30-minute timer — attempt with the clock to build exam speed, or without it while you are still learning the chapter.
• Marking: +2 for a correct answer, −0.5 for a wrong one, 0 if left blank — the same scheme as the real paper.
• Solutions, tricks and concept notes open after you submit, question by question.
• English and हिंदी — the same test in both languages wherever the Hindi set has been uploaded.
• No login needed to attempt a chapter test.

SSC CGL GK Syllabus 2026 — Chapter by Chapter

History and art & culture

Ancient, medieval and modern India together contribute three to four questions in most shifts, with the freedom struggle the densest part — sessions of the Congress, major movements, and the leaders attached to each. Art and culture sits alongside it: classical dances and their states, musical instruments, painting schools, folk forms and UNESCO heritage sites.

Polity, economics and geography

Polity questions are almost always article-based or institution-based, so a chapter test that repeats articles, schedules and amendments works far better than reading the Constitution end to end. Economics leans on budget vocabulary, RBI functions and index names. Geography splits cleanly into Indian physical and world physical, and both are map-and-list heavy.

General science — physics, chemistry, biology

Science is the largest single block in GA, at roughly four to six questions per shift. Biology dominates — human body, deficiency diseases, vitamins and classification — followed by everyday physics and basic chemistry. All three are factual recall at Class 8 to 10 level, which is exactly what repeated chapter tests fix.

Static GK and current affairs

Static GK is broken here into books and authors, awards, important days, sports, government schemes, organisations and miscellaneous, so you can revise one narrow list at a time instead of one enormous one. Current affairs typically covers the six to eight months before the exam and is worth four to six marks — the single biggest chapter in the section.

How to Use Chapter Wise Practice for SSC CGL GK

1. Revise, do not read. GA is a memory subject. Attempting a 50-question chapter test twice is worth more than reading the same chapter twice.
2. Start with science and history. Together they are seven to ten questions per shift — the biggest return for the first week of preparation.
3. Keep current affairs on a separate daily track. Use the daily current affairs page through the year and the current affairs chapter test for consolidated revision.
4. Use wrong answers as your syllabus. After each test, list only the facts you missed. That list, revised weekly, is a far better resource than any notes you copy out.
5. Do not spend exam time here. Finish the GA section in six to seven minutes. If you do not know a fact in ten seconds, you will not know it in forty.
6. Test it in a real paper. Attempt a previous year paper to see how SSC frames GA, then a full mock test to practise finishing it fast enough to protect the maths clock.

Chapter Tests, PYQs or Mock Tests — Which One, When?

The three are not alternatives. Chapter tests build the parts, previous year papers calibrate them against the real paper, and mock tests teach you to hold all four sections together for 60 minutes under locked sectional timing.
