How to use weekly current affairs for your exam
| Exam | How current affairs is tested | How to use the weekly PDF |
|---|---|---|
| CLAT 2027 (6 Dec 2026) | Current Affairs including GK has 28–32 of 120 questions, about 25%, set on news-based passages | Read for context, not just facts: for each big story, know the background, the institutions involved and the likely follow-up. Practise one passage set per weekly story |
| AILET 2027 | Current Affairs & GK has 30 of 150 questions, with −0.25 per wrong answer | Direct factual MCQs: build flashcards for names, places, numbers and dates every week, and revise the last 12–18 weeks before the exam |
| CUET (UG) General Aptitude Test | GK and current affairs are named units of the NTA General Test syllabus | Focus on schemes, awards, appointments, summits and sports; attempt a 10-question quiz after each weekly PDF |
| Judiciary (PCS-J) | Most state prelims include GK; mains and interviews draw on legal developments | Extract Supreme Court and High Court judgments, new laws and bills into a separate legal-updates notebook |
| 3-year LLB entrances | GK and legal awareness sections in most entrances | Same method as CLAT for legal news; flashcards for static GK links |
| IPMAT and CAT | No GK section in the written test; current affairs matters for WAT, GD and PI | Pick one economy or business story per week and write a 150-word opinion on it for interview practice |
| NID, NIFT, NATA | General awareness varies by exam and stage; confirm against each notification | Track design, architecture, culture and sustainability news for studio tests and interviews |
A 7-day routine for the weekly PDF
- Day 1, 45 minutes: read the new PDF once, end to end, without making notes.
- Day 2, 60 minutes: pick the 5–6 stories with most background (a bill, a treaty, a judgment) and write a 100-word note on each: what happened, why, who decided, what next.
- Day 3: turn names, dates, places and numbers into flashcards for factual-MCQ exams such as AILET and the CUET General Aptitude Test.
- Day 4: attempt the quiz in the PDF or a Toprankers GK mock; mark every wrong answer.
- Day 5: link each story to its static GK (the constitutional article, the organisation’s headquarters, the previous holder of the post).
- Day 6: revise the previous two weekly PDFs for 20 minutes each.
- Day 7: file the week’s notes under monthly headings, ready for the monthly PDF.
