English Literature শর্টকাট

English Literature এর উপর আমি খুব বেশি জোর দেয়ার পক্ষপাতী না।কারণ এটা লিখিত বা অন্য কোথাও কাজে দিবে না।এছাড়া পিএসসিও চাবে না কেউ Literature অনেক অনেক মুখস্ত করে ইংলিশ এ পার পেয়ে যাক।আমার মনে হয়, সর্বোচ্চ ৭০% কমন থাকতে পারে। PSC এখন vocabulary, বিশেষত communicative English এর উপর বেশি জোর দিচ্ছে। ৩৫, ৩৬ তম বিসিএস এর প্রিলি ও লিখিত সেটার ইঙ্গিত দেয়।
