Numerical Ability and Quantitative Aptitude & General Knowledge and Current Affairs
Diagnose baseline accuracy in arithmetic and current affairs by taking one untimed 40-question mixed set and logging every error by cause (concept gap, calculation slip, misread).
Memorise tables up to 20, squares up to 30 and cubes up to 15, then recite them daily in 10-minute bursts until recall is instant.
Drill percentage, ratio and average conversions until you can move between fraction, decimal and percentage forms without writing intermediate steps.
Set up a single current-affairs notebook split into national, Punjab/Chandigarh-local, sports, awards and appointments, and start a daily 15-minute newspaper or app review.
Your checkpoint
A one-page error log listing your three weakest numerical sub-topics with counts, plus 7 dated current-affairs entries in the notebook.
Numerical Ability and Quantitative Aptitude & General Knowledge and Current Affairs
Solve profit-and-loss, simple interest and compound interest problems using a fixed three-step template (identify given, choose base, apply formula) for 30 questions.
Complete 40 time-speed-distance and time-and-work questions, timing each set at 45 seconds per question to build exam pace.
Build a current-affairs timeline of the last three months covering major central government schemes and appointments, and link each to a one-line recall cue.
Review last week's error log and re-solve every missed question without looking at the solution.
Your checkpoint
A timed 30-question arithmetic test scored and corrected, with accuracy recorded and compared against week 1.
Numerical Ability and Quantitative Aptitude & General Awareness and Reasoning
Master simplification and approximation using BODMAS, surds and indices across 60 rapid-fire questions.
Complete 50 number series and analogy questions, writing the underlying rule next to each solved item.
Solve 30 data-interpretation sets based on tables and bar graphs, practising approximation instead of exact calculation.
Start a reasoning rule sheet covering coding-decoding, blood relations and direction sense with worked examples you write yourself.
Your checkpoint
A hand-written reasoning rule sheet of at least 15 rules, each with one original example and one solved practice question.
General Awareness and Reasoning & Numerical Ability and Quantitative Aptitude
Complete 60 seating-arrangement and puzzle questions, starting with linear arrangements before moving to circular and floor-based puzzles.
Drill syllogism and inequality questions using Venn diagrams until you can solve 20 in under 15 minutes.
Revise all arithmetic formulas from weeks 1-3 into a single condensed formula card.
Take one full-length mock of Domain 3 under exam timing and analyse every wrong answer.
Your checkpoint
A full-length numerical-ability mock completed under timing with a written analysis of every error and a revised formula card.
General Awareness and Reasoning & General Knowledge and Current Affairs
Solve 50 non-verbal reasoning items covering mirror images, paper folding, embedded figures and figure series.
Complete 40 statement-conclusion, assumption and cause-effect questions, noting the exact wording that makes an option wrong.
Consolidate current affairs from weeks 1-4 into 100 one-line facts and self-test them with flashcards.
Cover static general knowledge on Indian polity basics, the Constitution and Punjab and Chandigarh geography, writing short notes.
Your checkpoint
A 100-fact current-affairs and static-GK flashcard deck, self-tested with at least 80 percent recall.
Language (English and Punjabi/Hindi) and Basic Computer Knowledge & General Knowledge and Current Affairs
Revise English grammar rules for error spotting, sentence improvement, articles, prepositions and subject-verb agreement, then apply them to 60 questions.
Build a vocabulary list of 100 words with synonyms, antonyms and one original sentence each.
Practise Punjabi or Hindi passages and grammar items for 45 minutes daily, matching the language you will attempt in the exam.
Complete basic computer knowledge notes on hardware, software, memory units, shortcuts and internet terminology, then answer 40 questions.
Your checkpoint
A language and computer cheat sheet of 4 pages with 100 vocabulary words, 20 keyboard shortcuts and 15 computer abbreviations.
Language (English and Punjabi/Hindi) and Basic Computer Knowledge & General Awareness and Reasoning
Complete 30 reading-comprehension passages across English and your chosen language, timing each at 6 minutes.
Practise 50 computer-awareness questions on MS Office, file extensions and networking basics until accuracy exceeds 80 percent.
Revisit the reasoning rule sheet and solve 40 mixed reasoning questions drawn only from rules you previously got wrong.
Write 5 short letters or précis exercises to internalise format and conciseness.
Your checkpoint
A mixed 50-question language and computer test scored at 80 percent or above, with corrections written out.
General Awareness and Reasoning & General Knowledge and Current Affairs & Numerical Ability and Quantitative Aptitude & Language (English and Punjabi/Hindi) and Basic Computer Knowledge
Take three full-length mocks across all four domains on alternate days, each followed by a same-day error review.
Reduce per-question time in Domain 3 to 40 seconds by practising skip-and-return strategy on two timed sets.
Revise only your own notes, formula card, rule sheet and flashcards, avoiding new material.
Simulate exam-day conditions once, including sleep timing, to fix your section order and attempt strategy.
Your checkpoint
Three completed full-length mocks with scores trending upward, plus a final one-page exam-day strategy sheet covering section order and time allocation.
Milestones
Week 4: Score at least 60 percent on the timed Domain 3 mock and show that arithmetic accuracy has improved over the week 1 baseline.
Week 6: Recall at least 80 of 100 current-affairs and static-GK flashcards correctly and finish the language and computer cheat sheet.
Week 8: Achieve a rising trend across three full-length mocks, with the final mock at or above 65 percent overall and no domain below 50 percent.
