Memory trick · Prashant Sir

Effective में effect साफ़ दिखता है। दवा तभी effective है जब उसका effect दिखे, यानी मनचाहा result दे। Efficient अलग है — वह time और money की बचत की बात करता है।

See EFFECT inside EFFECTIVE. A medicine is effective when it shows its effect, that is, when it produces the result you wanted. Keep it apart from efficient, which is about not wasting time or money.

Exam note

Synonym: efficacious, functional, fruitful, potent; antonym: ineffective, futile। SSC फ़र्क भी पूछता है: effective result देता है, efficient resources बचाता है।

Synonyms tested are efficacious, functional, fruitful and potent; antonyms are ineffective and futile. SSC also tests the difference: effective gives results, efficient saves resources.
