Skill Test in Data Entry (DEST) Test: This test is conducted to check a Candidate’s typing skills. Candidates are given an article of 2000 words in English which they have to type on the Computer in 15 minutes.
Computer Proficiency Test (CPT) Test: This test is conducted to check a candidate’s proficiency in Word Processing, Spreadsheets and Generation of Slides are the three areas that are tested by the SSC for the post of CSS, MEA, Inspector (Central Excise), Inspector (Preventive Officer), Inspector (Examiner).
Note: SSC CGL Tier-4 is qualifying in nature (i.e. no marks will be rewarded in Tier-4).
Candidate should prepare for SSC CGL exam in the following manner:
Be Thorough With The Syllabus: Go through the SSC CGL syllabus and see what all topics are included under each section. Categorize your strength and weakness, to find out which topics are easy and which are difficult.
Create A Timetable: The next step is to create a proper and realistic timetable. Separate time slots should be allotted for each of the sections. More time should be spent on the section that you find difficult and less time on your strong sections.
Develop Reading Habits & Clear Your Concepts: You need to understand what each of the concepts means. Otherwise, it won’t be possible for you to even identify the problems. Especially for the Language section (Hindi/English) and General Knowledge & General Awareness sections, you need an extensive reading. Try to understand the application and usage of grammatical rules and improve your vocabulary. The General Knowledge & General Awareness section on the other hand needs you to have information about a wide range of topics at your fingertips. All these things can be achieved with regular reading of Newspaper and Articles.
