I will give a simple guideline to prepare for TNPSC Examinations

TNPSC Exam is conducted in two phases:

1. Written test (descriptive type).
2. Interview


TNPSC Question:

Total question : 200
Total Marks : 300
and Interview process takes place for selecting candidates for Job. Interview is conducted by TamilNadu Public Service Commission.



Marks Needs to be selected:

For all category students , if you get 160 questions right then you will have more possible chance to get selected for interview.



Idea for TNPSC Exam:

Group 2 exam question paper will consist of 200 question in total. 100 questions from Tamil language or English language, and 100 questions based on general knowledge. First all, you must take enough time to prepare for language paper (Tamil or English). you must be able to get at least 90 questions right in language paper exam. It makes you easy to get good score in Group 2 exam.

So now you have to just get 70 questions right from the general knowledge part. It will be possible if you prepare hard every day for exam from the time of Notification to group 2 exams. Hard preparation does not mean Hard. In real, It is simple. 4 hours preparation for tnpsc exam is more than enough.



TNPSC General Knowledge Questions:


In general knowledge questions , questions are asked from various part .Those parts are General Science, current events of national and international importance, history and culture of India, geography, Indian Polity, Indian economy, Indian National Movement and Freedom struggle, Mental ability tests and other related fields(Maths, Quantitative Apps,Statics),And Basic questions on tamilnadu is also asked.
