Combined Defence Services (CDS) is an exam conducted by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC). Preparation Tips For English develop the habit of reading the newspaper regularly. Reading the newspaper improves not only one's vocabulary but also one's knowledge about the subject Read basic grammar books to clear the concepts Learn new words on a daily basis to develope a good hold over the language While learning the new words try to learn their antonyms and synonyms and also how to use the words in sentences Solve past year question papers so that you have an idea of what to expect Revise all the topics thoroughly Concentrate on having a clear concept on all the topics Watch television for the latest happenings in and around the world Pick up those topics first that you are strong at and practice thoroughly. Later move on the difficult ones and try to practice as much as possible.
