As day by day the importance of the General knowledge and science is increasing ,you can start preparing for it right from now as it has no end and it is dimensionless.

Dear Aspirant
It is good to aspire and aim high but there is time to do everything.You should focus on current studies.You have chosen Computer Science.It is good that you chosen your branch of your choice.You should make your programming skills good.
I would like to say that minimum educational qualifications is graduation and age limits is 21 years.That you know very well.So performing better today in your studies will give you more motivation and success in your life to do good for such a big competitive exams.In this level you should only learn to read any English newspaper daily and that will be sufficient for getting half the success and you should do nothing.
The benefits of reading newspaper is your English communication skills,speaking skills,comprehension skills and further your vocabulary will improved.Further reading newspaper will help you lot in updating current affairs than any other magazines or competitive magazines.Your general knowledge will improve a lot in this way and finally go through NCERT books of class 9th and 10th.
