Among all the sections of the SSC CGL examination, the
section that stands out is that of the SSC Quant Syllabus 2017. Quantitative Aptitude section is a crucial section and thankfully so. If you have good command over this section, you can
score 40
– 45 questions in
just 40
minutes. It
is known to be a scoring area for those who consider Mathematics as one of
their stronger sciences.
All
that is needed is a strong basic knowledge and a sharp mind to quickly solve
questions without compromising on accuracy. A major factor to do so, would be
the use of tricks, shortcuts and strategies.
To
help you get a proper breakdown of the paper, here is the predicated pattern
for the SSC Quant in India.
The SSC quant
syllabus 2017 is as follows:

The following observations can be made from the past
years:
1.
As of 2016, the
number of questions in the SSC quant in
India have been cut down to 25 from the earlier 50 questions. The 2017
paper is also believed to accommodate 25 questions in the SSC quant section.
2.
Questions on
Percentage, Profit and Loss, Interest have been consistent over the years
(2010-2016)
3.
Data
interpretation (bar graphs, pie charts, table analysis) and mensuration are
chapters of moderate difficulty with more number of questions in the overall
quant section.
4.
The same can be
said for Geometry and Trigonometry. Make sure you are well versed in
trigonometric identities and congruency conditions and coordinate geometry.
Some exam takers often find this section to be slightly more challenging
because of the number of formulas involved. But this can be tackled with pre-planned
rigorous preparation.
5.
Topics like
Ratio Proportion and Theory of Interest are easy to prepare for and can be
complete scoring questions.
Make the most of this analysis and with the right amount of
dedication and hard work, you should be well on your way to acing the SSC quant
section. All the very best!
