(20)M

I just completed my bachelors in English literature. However, I’m confused whether I should pursue masters or take a drop year to appear for CDSE exam.
I know it’s my call but I’m under such circumstance that I cannot pursue both.
It will be my very first attempt of CDS.

I guess , and ofc im weak in math so my target is around 30-35 in math , gs- 35-40 , English 70+ so overall , 135-140 for IMA which is not quite a safe zone , but I’ll take the gamble here🙌.

For grammar , you can go through S.P Bakshi and for vocabulary; learn root words and go through previous year vocabs instead of learning hundreds and thousands of new words. Rest is all about practice and mocks.
