BOOK LIST @SSC

🕉 

Generally... Candidates Appearing for Competitive Exams shouldn't neglect GA/GS sections. These not only makes you unique but keeps you ahead of thousands just having merit in these Sections.

So..Before Starting Preparation.. We must have proper clarity about the perfect booklist rather following Many resources in Very less time, resulting a regret later.

Let's Have a Look...

1.HISTORY:

It is divided into 3 parts. 

●Ancient,

●Medival,

●Modern.

#Ancient :

 R.S. Sharma would be completely fine (Old)

Follow Ncerts (6-8) for basic Understanding.

#Medival: 

History of Medival India by Satish Chandra,

Follow Ncerts ( From 9th, look into Indian portion only) 

Lectures of Chetan MNA (for both Ancient & Medival)

Tamilnadu BOOK for both Medival &Ancient History.

#Modern: 

Indias struggle to Freedom by BIPIN CHANDRA is more than adequate.

Also..have Spectrum [ Brief History of Modern India] by Rajiv Ahir as 2nd priority.

Lectures of Abhishek Srivastava Sir.

#Arts&Culture:

Follow Nitin singhania blindly. [Either his notes/Text]

(Or)

Intro to Fine Arts [11 Ncert]

The 2nd most important after History is GEOGRAPHY according to Weightage of most Exams.

● NCERTs of 11&12 are must.(Also refer from 6th if u have time)

●Dheeraj Singh Chouhan classes are the Best Source.
