CDS Maths preparation in one month

When you are aiming for CDS exam preparation in one month, leave CDS Maths preparation aside and focus only for CDS English paper and CDS GK paper so that you atleast have chance of clearing CDS Exam for OTA (For which marks of only GK and English paper are considered)

We are leaving Maths preparation aside because:

1. Completing 3 paper syllabus and revising it is not possible. Instead, if we will focus on two papers, we can manage time properly and their are chances to clear cutoff for CDS OTA exam (by scoring 90+ Marks in English and GK paper)
2. CDS GK preparation will demand atleast 2 revisions and CDS English needs rigorous practice of previous year papers. This can be done if we divide our time in 2 subjects only. (Quality study possible)
3. Instead of focusing on multiple academies, our focus will be only on Officers Training Academy (OTA) and we will make it through.
