JK Police SI study plan

JK Police SI · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 7 hours per week

Week 1

General Awareness and Current Affairs & Reasoning and Analytical Ability

  • Start a dated current-affairs log and record 30 entries in week 1: 10 national, 6 Jammu and Kashmir, 5 international, 4 appointments/awards, 5 sports and defence items, each with a one-line context note.

  • Drill 100 reasoning questions across number/letter series, analogy, coding-decoding and blood relations, working in timed sets of 25 at roughly one minute per question.

  • Take a 20-question diagnostic on syllogism and linear seating arrangement, score it honestly, and list the three subtypes where accuracy fell below 60%.

  • Review every wrong reasoning answer on the same day and write the underlying rule beside it in an error log, so week 2 starts from named gaps.

Your checkpoint

A dated 30-entry current-affairs log plus a reasoning error log naming the three weakest question subtypes with their diagnostic scores.

Week 2

General Awareness and Current Affairs & Reasoning and Analytical Ability

  • Memorise 60 static-GK facts this week, split evenly across Indian polity, geography, economy and basic science, and self-test them with 30 recall questions.

  • Build a table of 20 government schemes with launch year, ministry and one-line objective, including at least five that are Jammu and Kashmir specific.

  • Solve 100 puzzle-type reasoning questions covering floor arrangement, scheduling, data sufficiency, inequality and direction sense, timing each set of 25 under 20 minutes.

  • Keep the daily current-affairs habit by adding 5 entries per day and re-reading the previous week's log every Sunday.

  • Attempt one 30-question mixed reasoning sectional and record topic-wise accuracy to compare against the week 1 diagnostic.

Your checkpoint

A completed 20-scheme reference table and a scored 30-question reasoning sectional showing improvement over the week 1 diagnostic.

Week 3

General English & Reasoning and Analytical Ability

  • Revise and apply grammar rules for subject-verb agreement, tense sequence, articles, prepositions and pronouns across 200 error-spotting and sentence-correction questions.

  • Compile 50 exam-level words with meaning, synonym, antonym and one original sentence each, and test yourself on 25 of them at week's end.

  • Practise six reading-comprehension passages with a strict 8-minute cap per passage and mark the evidence line for every answer chosen.

  • Work through 60 reasoning questions on statement-assumption, statement-argument, inference and cause-effect, writing a one-line justification for each rejection.

  • Log the recurring error types from both domains into one page so revision in week 8 is targeted rather than general.

Your checkpoint

A timed sectional of 30 English and 20 reasoning questions with a topic-wise accuracy report and a one-page list of recurring error types.

Week 4

General English & Indian Constitution, Policing and Law

  • Complete 100 questions on idioms and phrases, synonyms, antonyms, cloze test and para jumbles, then re-attempt only the missed ones after two days.

  • Study the Preamble, Fundamental Rights, Directive Principles, Fundamental Duties, writs and the main constitutional amendments, and test retention with 100 MCQs.

  • Sit one full English sectional of 50 questions in 45 minutes under exam conditions and analyse the time spent per section.

  • Write short notes linking each writ and each Fundamental Right to one current example so the article numbers stick.

  • Read one monthly current-affairs digest cover to cover to close gaps in the first three weeks' log.

Your checkpoint

A full-length mock covering current affairs, reasoning and English, scored against your target cut-off with a section-wise time breakdown.

Week 5

Indian Constitution, Policing and Law & Numerical Ability / Quantitative Aptitude

  • Map the Union and State executive, Parliament, Supreme Court and High Court, federalism, the Schedules and emergency provisions, then answer 80 MCQs on them.

  • Learn policing essentials: the new criminal law framework replacing the IPC, CrPC and Evidence Act, plus NDPS, POCSO, Juvenile Justice, human rights and cybercrime basics, and write a one-line summary of each Act.

  • Solve 150 arithmetic questions on percentage, ratio, average, profit and loss, time-work and time-speed-distance, with a 60-second-per-question clock.

  • Maintain a formula sheet and an error log that names the exact step where each arithmetic attempt broke down.

  • Re-read the week 3 English error page and re-solve 20 of the previously wrong questions.

Your checkpoint

A 50-question law-and-policing mock at 75% or above plus a 25-question arithmetic set finished in 25 minutes at 80% accuracy.

Week 6

Numerical Ability / Quantitative Aptitude & Jammu and Kashmir Specific Knowledge (history, geography, culture, polity)

  • Practise data interpretation on tables, bar charts, pie charts and line graphs, completing 10 sets of 5 questions each within 30 minutes.

  • Cover simple and compound interest, mixtures, pipes and cisterns, boats and streams, mensuration and basic trigonometry, solving 120 questions across the week.

  • Learn Jammu and Kashmir geography: the Indus, Jhelum, Chenab and Tawi rivers, the Pir Panjal, Karakoram and Zanskar ranges, and the main passes and lakes.

  • Memorise all districts, both divisions and the major crops and crafts of each region, testing yourself with a blank map.

  • Note five numerical topics where accuracy stays below 70% for extra drilling in week 8.

Your checkpoint

A hand-drawn Jammu and Kashmir map labelling the four main rivers, eight passes, five lakes and all districts, plus a 30-question arithmetic and data-interpretation set scored and dated.

Week 7

Jammu and Kashmir Specific Knowledge (history, geography, culture, polity) & Computer Awareness and Basic IT

  • Study Jammu and Kashmir history, culture and polity: Dogra rule, the 1947 accession, the 2019 reorganisation and change of status, the legislative assembly, the Lieutenant Governor and the High Court.

  • List 15 cultural markers of the region, including festivals, Sufi and saint traditions, languages, Pashmina, papier-mache and the major pilgrimage sites, with a one-line note on each.

  • Cover computer fundamentals: hardware and software, input and output devices, memory types, number systems, operating-system basics and common shortcuts.

  • Practise Word, Excel and PowerPoint tasks, and revise internet, email, browser, networking and cyber-security and virus basics with 60 MCQs.

  • Take a combined 40-question test of 30 Jammu and Kashmir questions and 10 computer questions.

Your checkpoint

A combined 40-question Jammu and Kashmir and computer test scored at 80% or above, with a one-page corrections sheet.

Week 8

General Awareness and Current Affairs & Reasoning and Analytical Ability

  • Revise the full eight-week current-affairs log in three passes, one for national, one for Jammu and Kashmir, and one for schemes, appointments and awards.

  • Solve 200 mixed reasoning questions under a 45-second average, prioritising the subtypes still weakest after week 2 and week 3.

  • Sit three full-length mocks covering all seven domains on alternate days, each followed by a two-hour analysis of every wrong answer.

  • Re-solve all logged errors from English, law, arithmetic and Jammu and Kashmir, ticking off only those answered correctly twice.

  • Reduce revision to the formula sheet, the error page and the current-affairs log in the final two days, and fix a sleep and exam-day routine.

Your checkpoint

Three completed full-length mocks with a scored trend line showing the final attempt at or above your target cut-off.

Milestones

Week 2: Reasoning sectional score logged and at least 10 percentage points above the week 1 diagnostic, with the error log naming specific subtypes rather than topics.

Week 4: First full-length mock across current affairs, reasoning and English completed under timed conditions, with section-wise accuracy recorded against the target cut-off.

Week 6: Arithmetic and data-interpretation accuracy holding at 80% or better with an average under 60 seconds per question, and the Jammu and Kashmir map test passed without notes.

Week 8: Third full-length mock scored at or above the target cut-off in every section, with all logged errors re-solved correctly twice.
