General Knowledge Is Very Helpful For The Kids

By Armando Rodriguez


Every kid in the twenty first century is as competitive as their counterparts as compared to the twentieth century. Kids nowadays are very well acknowledging with the surrounding and very alert with the happenings of the world. Parents are not needed to force their children to get more information about the current affairs, they itself are interested in collecting more information about it and have enough mediums to do it.

This is not only limited to fashion but also in matters related to politics, games and even careers, in all kinds of languages. Parents asking their kids to get pursue general knowledge studies they are only helping them to hone their skills. This will help them to comply with the challenges of the outside world.

In the second phase of the process or the IAS exam, the candidate has to go through the Mains exam of the Civil Service Examinations. Here the Candidate has to appear for 5 papers for the mains exam which is the general studies, essay writing, English paper and one other language that it chooses from the 18 mentioned languages in the Indian Constitution.

Time duration for the exam is about 2 hours and the candidate has to answer questions about six topics which are Indian History, Constitution of India, Economics, Science, Current Affairs and Geography. The second paper is optional and consists of paper including the political science, Economics, Psychology and Physics, etc. This exam consists of maximum 300 marks with 120 questions to answer for which the time duration is about 2 hours.

Earlier the candidates had the liberty to choose the first subject as optional which would be their main stream subject and the prelims exam was found to be mostly covered in it. Moreover they only had to decide on the second optional subject. Currently, every candidate is provided with equal opportunity and equal liberty so they have to take a decision on the two optional subjects for the mains exam with more flexibility and having different criteria in mind. This is also going to determine the chances of the candidate to crack the exams.

When people look to have general knowledge about the history, they not only look to get information about the kings or the queens but also about the currency that was used at that time or even the culture they used to follow, also about the languages they used for communication and methods of transportation. Also gain information about the main occupations and how it evolved.

It is said that a child's brain is just like a pit, it can be filled with all the information that you can. They can catch up all the information they read and still have enough space for more, which is an amazing thing. All you need to do is get your child interested in a particular subject and it can read more and more about it. If it is the general knowledge, they can start learning about all the current affairs and things that they have to know about in general. It can be very helpful for the child's future.
