Key Takeaways for Your Preparation
- Context Matters: JKSSB often tests synonyms through “Paragraph Writing with Blanks,” where the “best fit” word depends on the sentence’s tone.
- Root Word Strategy: Instead of cramming, learn roots (e.g., “Bene” means good) to decode unfamiliar words during the exam.
- Consistency over Intensity: Aim to learn 10 new synonyms daily rather than 100 in one sitting. Use the “1-3-7 Revision Rule” (review after 1 day, 3 days, and 7 days) to lock them into long-term memory.
