DSSSB JE Exam · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 6 hours per week

Week 1

Arithmetical and Numerical Ability & General Intelligence and Reasoning Ability

  • Diagnose baseline by solving one timed 25-question arithmetic set and one 25-question reasoning set, then record accuracy and time per question.

  • Build a personal formula sheet covering percentages, ratio-proportion, averages, profit-loss and simple/compound interest, with one worked example each.

  • Drill 60 percentage and ratio questions in blocks of 15, writing the shortcut used beside every answer.

  • Practise 40 series and analogy questions, classifying each by rule type (numeric, letter, mixed) after solving.

Your checkpoint

A dated baseline sheet listing accuracy and average seconds per question for both sets, plus a one-page formula sheet with 20 formulas and worked examples.

Week 2

Arithmetical and Numerical Ability & General Intelligence and Reasoning Ability

  • Solve 80 time-work and time-speed-distance questions, converting every word problem into a one-line equation before calculating.

  • Complete 50 simplification and number-system questions under a 30-second-per-question cap.

  • Work through 40 coding-decoding and blood-relation items, writing the decoding key or family tree for each.

  • Maintain an error log tagging each mistake as concept gap, calculation slip, or misread question.

Your checkpoint

An error log with at least 30 tagged entries and a count of mistakes per tag, showing which tag dominates.

Week 3

General Intelligence and Reasoning Ability & Arithmetical and Numerical Ability

  • Solve 50 seating-arrangement and puzzle sets (linear, circular, floor-based) with a fixed 4-minute limit per set.

  • Drill 40 direction-sense and order-ranking questions, sketching a diagram for every item.

  • Revise the week-1 formula sheet and re-solve the ten questions missed most often in week 2.

  • Take one 50-question mixed arithmetic-plus-reasoning test in 60 minutes and analyse section-wise accuracy.

Your checkpoint

A timed mock scorecard with section-wise accuracy, unattempted count, and a list of the five weakest question types.

Week 4

General Awareness & Arithmetical and Numerical Ability

  • Compile a one-page static-GK sheet on Indian polity covering the Constitution, fundamental rights, Parliament, and key amendments.

  • Build a timeline card of Indian history from 1857 to 1947 with 20 dated events.

  • Memorise 30 current-affairs items from the past six months (appointments, schemes, sports, awards) and self-test on them.

  • Re-drill arithmetic topics from weeks 1-2 at 80 percent accuracy or better in a 30-question set.

Your checkpoint

Three revision cards (polity, history timeline, current affairs) plus a 30-question arithmetic re-test result at or above 80 percent.

Week 5

General Awareness & Hindi Language and Comprehension

  • Prepare geography notes on rivers, mountains, national parks, and Indian states with capitals, self-quizzing 40 items.

  • Learn 25 Hindi grammar terms and rules covering संधि, समास, उपसर्ग, प्रत्यय with one example each.

  • Solve 50 Hindi vocabulary items (पर्यायवाची, विलोम, अनेकार्थी) and record unfamiliar words in a personal list.

  • Read one Hindi passage daily for four days and answer five comprehension questions each, marking where the answer appears in the text.

Your checkpoint

A Hindi word-and-rule notebook with 50 vocabulary entries and 25 grammar rules, each with an example.

Week 6

Hindi Language and Comprehension & English Language and Comprehension

  • Complete 60 Hindi grammar questions on मुहावरे, लोकोक्तियाँ, वाक्य-शुद्धि and तत्सम-तद्भव, correcting each wrong answer in writing.

  • Practise 40 English error-spotting and sentence-improvement questions, naming the grammar rule violated for each error.

  • Build a 60-word synonym-antonym and idiom list in English and self-test twice.

  • Solve two English comprehension passages (five questions each) under 8 minutes per passage.

Your checkpoint

A bilingual error notebook containing 40 corrected Hindi items and 40 corrected English items, each annotated with the governing rule.

Week 7

English Language and Comprehension & General Awareness

  • Drill 50 English fill-in-the-blank, cloze, and one-word-substitution questions, noting collocations that decided the answer.

  • Revise all GK cards from weeks 4-5 and re-test 60 mixed static-GK items.

  • Take one 100-question full-length mock in 100 minutes under exam conditions with no pauses.

  • Analyse the mock by domain, listing time spent and accuracy for each of the five domains.

Your checkpoint

A full-length mock analysis sheet with per-domain time, accuracy, and a ranked list of the three domains needing the most revision.

Week 8

Arithmetical and Numerical Ability & General Intelligence and Reasoning Ability & Hindi Language and Comprehension & English Language and Comprehension

  • Re-solve every entry in the error log from weeks 2-6 and mark those still wrong for a final pass.

  • Take two full-length mocks on separate days and compare domain-wise accuracy against the week-7 baseline.

  • Revise the formula sheet, Hindi rule notebook, and English word list in three short sessions.

  • Fix an exam-day strategy: question order, per-section time caps, and a skip rule for questions exceeding 45 seconds.

Your checkpoint

A final readiness report showing both mock scores, improvement over week 7, and a written exam-day time-allocation plan.

Milestones

Week 2: Error log has at least 30 tagged entries and the dominant error tag is identified.

Week 4: Arithmetic re-test of 30 questions is scored at 80 percent or above, and all three GK revision cards are complete.

Week 6: Hindi and English error notebooks each contain 40 corrected, rule-annotated items.

Week 7: Full-length mock is completed within 100 minutes and per-domain accuracy is recorded for all five domains.

Week 8: Second full-length mock shows higher overall accuracy than the week-7 mock, and the exam-day time plan is written.
