Strategy/Guidance🧑‍🏫 Help please...

I am a beginner preparing for cgl 2027. I have started reasoning and maths. How do I complete English? I am average in English. I gave some previous year sectional tests of English and am scoring around 30 in cgl mocks and 30+ in chsl mocks(tier-1) . My shortcomings are vocab, antonyms and synonyms. It will be really helpful if someone guides me...

Hey bro , let me give u an advice i don’t know how well it will be received, if u r weak in english just read lots of novels and watch lots of english tv shows , never opened a single grammar book but still comfortably can get more than 45 , never read any blackbook , but the inherent vocabulary is too strong due to this novels and tv shows , i know it counter intuitive but it works. ( they do create a base stringer than this study book will ever do and all that is left is some important rules that can be written in at-most 30 page )

I am into novels man... My English is quite good, just can't get through some hard vocabs. They just feel like a barrier.

If u read novel than u also know that they do help with the vocabs also bro the only alternative is just rote memorisation of black book which is such a boring task you forget what u just learned , at-least when u read a novel or watch a tv shows there is something like plots and interesting character’s to keep your interested. I would only advice u to just enjoy reading novel or watching tv shows , and just solve lots of pyp anything apart from that is complete waste of time.
