In competitive exams like CLAT and CUET, General Knowledge (GK) and Current Affairs can make or break your score. Unlike Quant or Verbal, GK requires regular exposure and consistent revision. A one-time cram session before the exam rarely works.
At Career Launcher South Ex, Delhi, we train aspirants to build a daily GK habit that sticks — using mini quizzes, note-taking, and smart revision to make learning seamless and stress-free.
Why a Daily GK Habit Matters
- Steady Knowledge Retention: Smaller, regular doses beat last-minute cramming.
- Exam Relevance: CLAT and CUET both test recent events + static GK.
- Confidence in Mocks: Familiarity with topics boosts accuracy and speed.
- Interview Readiness: A strong GK base also helps in Group Discussions and interviews.
Step 1: Fix Your GK Sources
- Newspapers: The Hindu / Indian Express (focus on editorials & national/international news).
- Monthly Compilations: Government reports, PIB updates, standard magazines.
- Online Quizzes: Weekly current affairs quizzes from trusted education portals.
Step 2: Use Mini Quizzes Daily
- Dedicate 15–20 minutes every day to a GK quiz.
- Focus on a mix of current affairs + static GK.
- Track your scores to see progress.
Example: Monday – National & International News Tuesday – Legal & Constitutional GK Wednesday – Science & Environment Thursday – Awards & Sports Friday – Economics & Business Saturday – Mix & Revision Sunday – Mock GK quiz
Step 3: Note-Taking That Works
- One-Page Daily Notes: Summarize 5–7 key points of the day.
- Use Headings & Bullet Points: Easier to revise later.
- Color Codes: Different colors for Legal GK, International News, Government Schemes, etc.
- Weekly Consolidation: Every Sunday, compile your notes into a single file or notebook.
Step 4: Active Recall & Spaced Revision
- Test yourself on old notes weekly — don’t just read.
- Use flashcards or apps like Quizlet to shuffle questions.
- Apply the “Two-Week Rule” — revisit each topic at least twice before exam day.
Sample Daily GK Mini Quiz
- Who is the current Chief Election Commissioner of India?
- Which country recently became the newest member of BRICS?
- Name the chairperson of the 16th Finance Commission.
- What is the theme of the latest UN Climate Conference (COP)?
