>>The first advice which I would like to give you is that do not waste time here and there after your office hours. Utilize even minutes of days for preparation when you are free from job. After doing job from 10 to 7 pm, take a rest of 1-2 hours. After that study for at least 3-4 hours upto 1 am different subjects like History, Civics, Economics and Geography.

>> At basic level read NCERT books from 6th to 10+2. In morning wake up upto 7 am and read for at least two hours before going to job. Read newspapers for current affairs and latest national and international affairs in office hours.
