TGSRTC TST/MST study plan

TGSRTC TST/MST · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 6 hours per week

Week 1

Road Transport Operations and Traffic Management & Motor Vehicle Mechanics and Automotive Engineering

  • Map the Domain 1 syllabus into five units: traffic regulation and enforcement, road geometry and signage, passenger transport scheduling and crew duty rules, accident response and reporting, and depot-level operational records

  • Define and memorise the core vehicle systems vocabulary for Domain 2 (engine, transmission, braking, steering, suspension, electrical) in English with Telugu equivalents where standard

  • Solve 40 mixed Domain 1 practice questions and log every wrong answer with the exact rule or concept it tested

  • Build a one-page formula and definition sheet for traffic density, headway, journey speed, and fleet utilisation that you can revise in ten minutes

Your checkpoint

A 25-term glossary plus a one-page operations formula sheet, self-quizzed to 90% recall

Week 2

Road Transport Operations and Traffic Management & Motor Vehicle Mechanics and Automotive Engineering

  • Explain the working of a four-stroke diesel engine, clutch, gearbox, differential, and air-brake system in your own words without notes

  • List the statutory duty-hour, rest-period, and crew-change requirements that govern stage-carriage bus operations and state how a depot enforces them

  • Interpret ten traffic-control scenarios (signal failure, festival diversions, accident bottlenecks) and write the correct enforcement or routing response for each

  • Diagnose five common bus fault symptoms (overheating, brake fade, steering pull, hard gear shift, battery drain) and name the probable cause and first check

Your checkpoint

A 20-item fault-symptom-to-cause table and a 10-scenario traffic response write-up, both self-graded against source notes

Week 3

Road Transport Operations and Traffic Management & Motor Vehicle Mechanics and Automotive Engineering

  • Complete 60 timed Domain 1 questions at exam pace, targeting at least 70% accuracy

  • Complete 60 timed Domain 2 questions, targeting at least 70% accuracy

  • Re-study only the topics behind your missed questions and rewrite each corrected explanation in one sentence

  • Sketch the preventive-maintenance schedule for a city bus (daily, weekly, monthly, and periodic servicing) and match each task to the system it protects

Your checkpoint

A two-column error log of at least 30 corrected items with one-line reasons, plus a completed maintenance schedule chart

Week 4

Motor Vehicle Act, Rules and Transport Regulations & Road Transport Operations and Traffic Management

  • Memorise the structure of the Motor Vehicles Act: licensing, registration, permits, insurance, offences, and penalties, and state which section covers each

  • Distinguish the permit categories relevant to state transport undertakings (stage carriage, contract carriage, special permits) and their conditions

  • Apply penalty, compounding, and compounding-fee rules to ten offence scenarios and state the correct outcome

  • Revisit Domain 1 weak spots from Week 3 and clear at least 80% of them on a retest

Your checkpoint

A section-number-to-topic index covering licensing, registration, permits, insurance, and offences, verified by a 30-question self-test at 75% or better

Week 5

General Studies and Current Affairs & Arithmetic, Reasoning and Analytical Ability

  • Build a rolling current-affairs habit: review the past three months of national and Telangana transport, policy, and scheme news and summarise 30 items in one line each

  • Drill arithmetic shortcuts for percentages, ratio and proportion, time-speed-distance, averages, and simple and compound interest until each type takes under 90 seconds

  • Practise reasoning sets on series, coding-decoding, blood relations, syllogisms, and seating arrangement, 10 questions per type

  • Analyse data-interpretation sets (tables and bar charts on passenger load and revenue) and extract answers without full calculation

Your checkpoint

A 30-item dated current-affairs digest plus a timed 40-question arithmetic-and-reasoning set scored at 70% or above

Week 6

General Studies and Current Affairs & Arithmetic, Reasoning and Analytical Ability & Telangana State Formation, History, Culture and Geography

  • Summarise the key stages of the Telangana statehood movement, the 2014 formation, and the major post-2014 administrative and transport initiatives

  • Map Telangana's districts, major rivers, physiographic regions, and principal crops and industries onto a blank outline you draw yourself

  • List the state's major festivals, art forms, and cultural landmarks with one identifying detail each

  • Complete 50 mixed general-studies, current-affairs, and Telangana questions under timed conditions

Your checkpoint

A hand-drawn Telangana outline map labelled with districts, rivers, and crop belts, plus a one-page statehood timeline

Week 7

Computer Awareness and Office Applications & Motor Vehicle Act, Rules and Transport Regulations

  • Operate the essentials of a word processor, spreadsheet, and presentation tool: formatting, formulas, sorting, filtering, and slide layout

  • Explain computer fundamentals, hardware and software categories, networking basics, and common security practices such as passwords and phishing awareness

  • Rehearse the official-portal tasks a transport employee performs: form filling, file upload, and email with attachment

  • Re-test the Domain 3 offences and penalties material and confirm retention above 80%

Your checkpoint

A completed spreadsheet exercise (a small depot duty roster with totals and a filter) plus a 20-question computer-awareness self-test at 80%

Week 8

Road Transport Operations and Traffic Management & Motor Vehicle Mechanics and Automotive Engineering & Motor Vehicle Act, Rules and Transport Regulations & General Studies and Current Affairs & Arithmetic, Reasoning and Analytical Ability & Telangana State Formation, History, Culture and Geography & Computer Awareness and Office Applications

  • Take two full-length mock tests under exam timing and review every error by domain

  • Re-drill the top 20 recurring weak concepts across all domains until each is answered correctly twice in a row

  • Rehearse the Week 1 formula sheet, Week 4 section index, and Week 6 map from memory

  • Plan exam-day logistics: reporting time, documents, and a final 48-hour revision sequence

Your checkpoint

Two completed mock tests with domain-wise score breakdowns and a written final-48-hour revision checklist

Milestones

Week 2: Explain the diesel engine, transmission, and air-brake systems and the statutory crew duty rules aloud without notes, and score at least 65% on a 30-question mixed Domain 1 and 2 quiz

Week 4: Score at least 75% on a 30-question Domain 3 test covering licensing, registration, permits, insurance, and penalties, and correctly resolve 8 of 10 offence scenarios
