General Intelligence & Reasoning: The Syllabus for General Intelligence would include questions of
both verbal and non-verbal type. The test may include questions on analogies, similarities,
differences, space visualization, problem solving, analysis, judgement, decision making, visual
memory, discrimination, observation, relationship concepts, arithmetical reasoning, verbal and
figure classification, arithmetical number series etc. The test will also include questions designed to
test the candidate’s abilities to deal with abstract ideas and symbols and their relationships,
arithmetical computations and other analytical functions.

(ii) General Awareness: Questions will be aimed at testing the candidate’s general awareness of the
environment around him/her and its application to society. Questions will also be designed to test
knowledge of current events and of such matters of everyday observations and experience in their
scientific aspect as may be expected of any educated person. The test will also include questions
relating to India and its neighbouring countries especially pertaining to History, Culture, Geography,
Economic Scene, General Polity and Scientific Research, etc. These questions will be such that they
do not require a special study of any discipline

TIER-I OF THE EXAMNATION :

A. General Intelligence & Reasoning : It would include questions of both verbal and
non-verbal type. This component may include questions on analogies, similarities
and differences, spatial visualization, spatial orientation, problem solving, analysis,
judgement, decision making, visual memory, discrimination, observation,
relationship concepts, arithmetical reasoning and figural classification, arithmetic
number series, non-verbal series, coding and decoding, statement conclusion,
syllogistic reasoning etc.
B. General Awareness : Questions in this component will be aimed at testing the
candidates general awareness of the environment around him and its application to
society. Questions will also be designed to test knowledge of current events and of
such matters of every day observations and experience in their scientific aspect as
may be expected of any educated person. The test will also include questions
relating to India and its neighbouring countries especially pertaining to sports,
History, Culture, Geography, Economic Scene, General Polity, Indian Constitution,
scientific Research etc. These Questions will be such that they do not require a
special study of any discipline.
C. Numerical Aptitute : The questions will be designed to test the ability of appropriate
use of numbers and number sense of the candidate. The scope of the test will be the
computation of whole numbers, decimals and fractions and relationships between
numbers. It will test sense of order among numbers, ability to translate from one
name to another, sense or order of magnitude, estimation or prediction of the
outcome of computation, selection of an appropriate operation for the solution of
real life problems and knowledge of alternative computation procedures to find
answers. The questions would also be based on arithmetical concepts and
relationship between numbers and not on complicated arithmetical computation
(The standard of the questions will be of 10+2 level).
