The SSC CGL Examination is held to fill up various Group ‘B’ and Group ‘C’ posts in different Ministries/Departments/Organizations of the Government of India, as well as in various Constitutional Bodies, Statutory Bodies, and Tribunals. Achieving success in the SSC CGL examination is a challenging task. However, it is often observed that candidates who start their preparation early tend to perform better compared to other candidates. This is known as the “early bird’s advantage.”

Starting preparation for SSC CGL in early days can be beneficial in various ways:

The SSC CGL exam is highly competitive, with around 30 lakh students applying for various government positions each year. To outshine in this examination, consistent effort and timely preparation are essential. By starting early, candidates can increase their chances of cracking the exam in their very first attempt.

More Time and Opportunities: Candidates who start early have more time for their studies. They can prepare thoroughly for the exam and work on their weaknesses. For instance, those who begin preparing for SSC CGL during their graduation days will be well-prepared by the time they complete their degree, compared to those who start after graduation.

Reduced Stress: Early starters are closer to the exam, which means they experience less stress. They feel more confident and can perform better because they have dedicated sufficient time to preparation. If a student’s graduation degree is three years long, starting preparation in the first year and consistently studying for 3-4 hours can help them crack the exam in their very first attempt.

More Practice: Candidates who start early have more time to practice. After completing their syllabus thoroughly, they have enough time for practice and revision. In an exam like SSC CGL, where time management is crucial, practicing and taking more mock tests can help candidates complete the exam on time.

Motivation: Most students complete their graduation by the age of 22. If someone starts preparing during their graduation and cracks the exam in their first attempt, they can become a government officer at a very young age. This can be a significant source of motivation, and they can explore other opportunities, such as preparing for the UPSC, and achieve their other dreams too. The social respect they will receive at such a young age can be another motivating factor.

These reasons make starting early a very advantageous strategy for the SSC CGL exam. If you start early, you can perform better than other candidates and achieve success.
