Since you guys might have already cleared or hoping to clear SSC CGL Tier 1, therefore we are not quoting basic books like R S Agarwal or M Tyra. Now, your first step towards Tier 2 Maths must be to cover all previous year questions of SSC CGL (Specially Mains) and recently conducted Tier -1 + Tier-2 papers in online mode.

After grasping these books your confidence will rise and you will be able to solve even some more difficult questions. You are also requested to keep your basics clear and do not rely on shortcuts, always solve a question by basics first and then try for shortcuts if possible. practice this consistently and you may also derive your own shortcuts. Please do not try to derive short cuts while appearing for the actual exam.

Basically, this section does not require any book, in recent SSC Exams, it was seen that passages were asked directly from The Hindu or India Express Newspaper articles.

I would recommend going with previous years papers, which will also cover other parts of English as well as Comprehension part.
