1. The Importance of mathematics in SSC
When it comes to cracking government job exams in India, Mathematics plays a crucial role—especially in SSC (Staff Selection Commission) exams like SSC CGL, SSC CHSL, and SSC MTS. It is one of the most scoring yet challenging sections that can make or break your overall result.
Why Mathematics Matters
High Weightage in Tier-I and Tier-II
In SSC CGL, Mathematics (Quantitative Aptitude) carries 25 questions for 50 marks in Tier-I and 100 marks in Tier-II.
Scoring well in this section significantly boosts your total marks and ranking.
Scoring with Accuracy
Unlike General Awareness or English, Quant offers clear right or wrong answers.
With practice, you can achieve near 100% accuracy and maximize your score.
Time Management
Mastering shortcuts, tricks, and formulae helps you solve questions faster.
Good command over arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and data interpretation ensures speed and precision.
Foundation for Reasoning
Many reasoning problems are indirectly based on mathematical thinking—ratios, patterns, percentages, and series.
A strong math foundation helps you crack complex logic-based questions faster.
Selection Game-Changer
With increasing competition and cut-offs, a high score in Quantitative Aptitude often determines your selection and post preference.
