Various political global groupings like UN and regional groups like ASEAN, SAARC, etc. are also important<strong>.<\/strong>One can expect regarding headquarters, chairpersons, functions of the organization or any other major reform\/ event that took place (pertaining to the organization).<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Geography:<\/strong>\u00a0You can expect general questions from geographical features from India and across the world. Questions on theoretical aspects of geography, like the mechanism of earthquakes, volcanoes etc. are rarely asked.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Everyday Science:<\/strong>\u00a0Focus is more on questions from the application of science rather than theoretical aspects of Physics and Chemistry. Further, expect questions on technologies involved in communication, IT, space, biotechnology etc.\u00a0Questions are generally of the School level.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Awards and Honors<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>History:<\/strong>\u00a0It can be further divided into Indian and World History. Indian History, especially after the 1857 revolt is more important.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Economy:\u00a0<\/strong>This is an important section for all entrance tests. You can expect questions from theoretical as well as practical aspects of Indian and World Economy, with a special focus on India&#8217;s macroeconomic indicators, like inflationary trends, GDP etc.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Constitution &amp; Polity:\u00a0<\/strong>In this, you may be asked questions on the working of the Indian Political System e.g. political parties, pressure groups etc. Also, as far as the constitution is concerned, expect questions on major Articles, Schedules and Constitutional Amendments. Further, features of major social schemes launched by the central government in the past are very important.\u00a0Use &#8220;<strong>Comparative Reading<\/strong>&#8220;. For instance, read in the following manner &#8211; \u00a0First\u00a0read about the President, then the\u00a0governor, then read about PM, then CM, Parliament and then State Legislature, Supreme Court and then High court and so on.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Though the syllabus may seem vast, a good way to prepare is to refer to reliable resources. Consider custom-made e-books for each exam. One can also peruse NCERT ( up to class 10) books for preparing static GK.

However, general knowledge for bank exams does not go beyond the relevance of banking general knowledge to a common man e.g. savings accounts, current accounts, operational banking procedures, RBI rules etc. Thus to prepare for general knowledge related to banking, one needs to be regular with newspaper reading.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>As far as most banking, government &amp; MBA exams, one must be thorough with the current affairs of the 3 &#8211; 5 months prior to the exam.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"GK_Section_Preparation_Resources_Free_Oliveboard_Tests\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>GK Section Preparation Resources: Free Oliveboard Tests<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The GK section\u00a0has the potential to \u00a0help you clear those overall cutoffs and seal the deal as it:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Provides 100% accuracy\u00a0(unless you indulge in blind guesswork)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Is highly time-efficient and,<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Extremely\u00a0scoring<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Thus, to aid your preparation you can attempt<em><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><strong>Oliveboard&#8217;s<\/strong><em><strong>\u00a0GK tests<\/strong><\/em> which cover the following topics:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Current Affairs<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Banking &amp; Insurance<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Computer Knowledge<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Polity &amp; Governance<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Culture, Books &amp; Awards<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Countries and Capitals<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Geography<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Dates and Committees<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Economy<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Science and Technology<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">History<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Sports<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The tests are extremely comprehensive and cover all important questions and aspects. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oliveboard.in\/register.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FREE GK Tests<\/a> are available for all of these categories.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oliveboard.in\/register.php?ref=blogdc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000; text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Click here\u00a0and start\u00a0attempting the FREE GK\u00a0tests NOW!<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Hope this helps.
