Good choice, i recommend to you what my teacher and my senior recommend to me, don’t go reference book if your concept is not clear because whether you read or follow the reference book then it may chances make confusion.
First take any fingertips book like during my GPAT i am taking GDC fingertips book that was enough. I am not doing any kind of promotion and advertising. I just tell you that thing which was my senior said to me.
And if you want DPP then you can search on google or download gdc application because they provide free class test and DPP.
And strategies is simply be consistent make a balance of all subject. Focus on major subject’s.
