Time and Distance
About Project 400 Questions.
I will post 400 MCQ on Maths for SSC-CGL. These 400 questions are unique. These are variety questions. I will call these questions as “Project 400 Questions”. These questions are developed on the basis of research. If any SSC CGL aspirant become proficient in these 400 questions I am sure he will score always 40+ score in maths in tier 1 and 180+ in tier 2. Keep in mind along with these representative questions a lot of practice is required.
