Hi SAM!!
I think you didn't read my mrng comments on SSC Science Quiz today…..
I have sent you this reply as follows –
Actually, I didn't made the plan right now for prep of descriptive test but today and tomorrow, Il tell you the plan for it.
And for right now, my suggestions are –
1. For Essay Writing
Read daily The Hindu Editorial Section , banking & finance section of
The Hindu, The Economic times Banking & Finance Section.. After reading, try to write the topic in your own words daily atleast one topic. Try to read about Insurance Sector, IRDA site and NICL.
2. For Precise writing.
You don't have to for anything extra.
Topics which you have read above have to be written by you in your own words but in summarize way and less number of words.
3. For letter writing
I think this we are doing from our school times – both formal and informal.
If any doubt in letter writing , just say me, il be there……
Hmm…following the same …thanks

ek aur post kiya hai
Maruti Cruisers sailed 132 km along with the river in six hours. Suddenly the boat had to return to the starting point and it started returning against the river and this time the Cruiser
travelled at 128 km in eight hours. By how much percentage Cruiser's speed exceeds the speed of the River ?
a) 533.33% b) 444.44% c) 267.67% d) none of these
explain kr do
if you picturize the problem goat is at corner so it can graize only so area= 1/4 (pi)x 7x 7=38.5
Cruiser's speed+speed of river=132/6
=22km/hr
Cruiser's speed-speed of river= 128/8
=16km/hr
now solve both the equation and you will get
Cruiser's speed=19km/hr
speed of river=3km/hr
So percentage Cruiser's speed exceeds the speed of the River=(19-3)x100/3 =533.33%
Bhai simplify karo ans 8 mil jayega…
Gud mrg.happy ugadi….
