How toppers play this section
General Knowledge & Current Affairs is the single heaviest individual topic area on the entire paper, spanning Indian polity & the constitution, geography, general science, history, institutions, and static awards and national-symbol facts. Because it is pure recall with no calculation or deduction step, it is also the fastest topic to attempt per question — the entire return on investment comes from breadth of prior reading, not from any technique applied during the exam itself. Static facts (constitutional articles, national symbols, historic dates) stay valid for years once learned correctly, while current-affairs-style questions reward a broad, recent-months reading habit rather than any single source.
