Many toppers of Bihar Judicial Services prefer the following books mentioned below. 

  • Static GK - Limit the sources for General Knowledge. Keep in mind that two sources are more than enough for GK preparation. If you run behind many sources, revising won't be easy. For Static GK, cover from Lucent for theoretical questions; in Ghatnachakra, you will find topic-wise question banks. 
  • Current GK - Go for Pratiyogita Darpan, monthly or annual,l for current affairs. Prefer AffairsCloud and Jagran Josh if you are comfortable learning via online mode.
  • Legal Previous Year Papers - The most recommended sources for the previous year's questions are Singhals and Universal Publications. Specifically, pick questions for the Bihar Judiciary exam. Go for the UP Judiciary last year's question papers. Both exams have a similar pattern, and. MA Raashid is the bible for practising questions.
