• Physical Requirements: Separate PET/PST standards for male/female and different forces - be ready to meet height, chest (where applicable), and race/long-jump criteria.

Selection process - what to expect (and how to prioritize) 🧭

   • 80 objective questions, 2 marks each → total 160 marks.
   • Negative marking: 0.25 marks for every wrong answer.
   • Languages: Available in English, Hindi and 13 regional languages.
   • Focus areas: General Awareness, Elementary Math, Reasoning, and basic Computer/General Science depending on notification specifics.

2. Physical Efficiency Test (PET) - run, long jump, high jump as per force criteria.

3. Physical Standard Test (PST) - measurement checks for height/chest.

Prep priority: Start with CBE fundamentals (speed + accuracy), parallelly maintain PET training (running/jumping routine). The CBE score filters you into physical rounds - don’t ignore either.

Physical test pointers - train smart, not just hard 🏃‍♂️🏋️‍♀️

• Build running stamina gradually: interval runs + one long run weekly.
• Practice long jump & high jump technique with a coach or experienced trainer if possible.
• Core strength and leg strength: squats, lunges, planks, and bounding drills.
• Rest well before PET - tired legs cost time and distance.

Mental game - keep calm, stay consistent 🙏

Government exams are a marathon. Celebrate small wins (better mock test score, a faster run time), and treat setbacks as data to correct. A steady daily schedule beats last-minute panic. Believe in consistent effort - your preparation will reflect on exam day.
