To prepare effectively for the IB ACIO exam, candidates should cover at least 6–8 months of current affairs prior to the exam date. Focus should be on major national and international events, government schemes, defence updates, sports, awards, appointments, economy, and reports. Reading newspapers like The Hindu or Indian Express, monthly current affairs magazines, and online PDFs can help. It’s also recommended to revise current affairs through quizzes and mock tests regularly to strengthen recall and accuracy. For best results, integrate current affairs with static GK topics during preparation.
