It is not feasible to study every possible topic in advance, especially in the case of current affairs questions. Such questions are typically based on recent events and trends. Therefore, it is crucial to select specific topics from current affairs by scanning newspapers and magazines and then study the relevant information in detail, cross-referencing with other theoretical materials. Attempting to cover every possible topic beforehand is impractical and may not yield desirable results. Therefore, it is recommended to focus on understanding the key concepts and current trends in a few selected areas rather than trying to cover everything
