THDC JE study plan

THDC JE · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 7 hours per week

Week 1

Engineering Discipline (Civil / Electrical / Mechanical / Electronics & Instrumentation) - technical core

  • Map the full Domain 1 syllabus for your chosen discipline branch and rate each subtopic as strong, weak, or unknown before studying anything

  • Build a one-page formula and standard-value sheet for your branch (e.g. bending moment and shear formulas, cable sizing and voltage drop, thermal efficiency, sensor transfer functions)

  • Solve 20 core numericals from your strongest subtopic to calibrate difficulty and timing per question

  • Start a mistake log with columns for topic, error type, and the corrected rule

Your checkpoint

A completed self-rating sheet covering every Domain 1 subtopic plus a formula sheet you can revise from in under 10 minutes

Week 2

Engineering Discipline (Civil / Electrical / Mechanical / Electronics & Instrumentation) - technical core

  • Work through the two weakest Domain 1 subtopics using worked examples before attempting unsolved problems

  • Practice 30 mixed Domain 1 questions under a 35-minute timer to build exam pace

  • Re-derive rather than memorize the five formulas you got wrong most often in week 1

  • Explain three key concepts aloud in plain language to confirm real understanding

Your checkpoint

A timed 30-question Domain 1 set scored and fully corrected, with every error traced to a named concept gap

Week 3

Engineering Discipline (Civil / Electrical / Mechanical / Electronics & Instrumentation) - technical core

  • Cover the remaining Domain 1 subtopics, prioritizing ones that appear in both theory and numerical form

  • Solve 15 design or estimation style problems that combine two concepts in a single question

  • Review the mistake log and re-solve every logged question without looking at the solution

  • Draft a 20-line summary of standards, codes, and typical values you keep forgetting

Your checkpoint

Full first pass through Domain 1 complete, with at least 80 percent of logged week-1 errors re-solved correctly

Week 4

Engineering Discipline (Civil / Electrical / Mechanical / Electronics & Instrumentation) - technical core & Quantitative Aptitude and Numerical Ability

  • Take a 60-question Domain 1 mock and analyze it by subtopic to find residual weak areas

  • Learn and drill shortcut methods for percentages, ratios, averages, and time-work problems

  • Solve 40 aptitude questions with a strict 45-second average per question

  • Memorize the squares to 30, cubes to 15, and fraction-to-percentage conversions you use most

Your checkpoint

A Domain 1 mock score plus a written list of the three subtopics that still cost you the most marks, with a fix plan for each

Week 5

Quantitative Aptitude and Numerical Ability & Reasoning and General Intelligence

  • Drill arithmetic word problems in timed blocks of 10 to build accuracy before speed

  • Practice series completion, coding-decoding, and blood-relation reasoning in alternating sets

  • Learn to solve seating arrangement and puzzle sets with a diagram-first method

  • Review every wrong aptitude and reasoning answer and classify it as concept gap, misread, or time pressure

Your checkpoint

Two timed 25-question sets, one aptitude and one reasoning, each scored above 70 percent with corrections written out

Week 6

Reasoning and General Intelligence & General Awareness, Current Affairs and General Knowledge

  • Work through non-verbal reasoning types including figure series, mirror images, and embedded figures using a rule checklist

  • Build a current-affairs timeline covering the last 12 months of national infrastructure, power, and policy news relevant to THDC's sector

  • Revise static general knowledge on Indian geography, rivers, dams, and major power projects

  • Take a 30-question mixed reasoning and awareness quiz and log recurring weak areas

Your checkpoint

A one-page current-affairs and static-GK revision sheet plus a scored mixed quiz with weak areas flagged

Week 7

English Language and Comprehension & Basic Computer Knowledge and Awareness

  • Practice grammar and error-spotting sets covering subject-verb agreement, tenses, prepositions, and articles

  • Complete reading comprehension passages under a 6-minute-per-passage limit and note where you lose time

  • Revise computer fundamentals: hardware, operating systems, MS Office basics, internet and email, and common shortcuts

  • Take a 20-question computer awareness quiz and correct every miss

Your checkpoint

A scored English and computer combined set plus a personal list of the 15 grammar rules and 15 computer facts you most often forget

Week 8

Engineering Discipline (Civil / Electrical / Mechanical / Electronics & Instrumentation) - technical core & Quantitative Aptitude and Numerical Ability & Reasoning and General Intelligence

  • Take two full-length mocks in exam conditions and analyze section-wise accuracy and time allocation

  • Re-solve every question in your mistake log one final time without hints

  • Revise only your formula sheet, current-affairs sheet, and grammar and computer lists in the final three days

  • Fix your exam-day order of attempting sections based on mock performance data

Your checkpoint

Two full-length mock scores with a written section-order strategy and a final one-page revision sheet for exam eve

Milestones

Week 2: You can solve a mixed 30-question Domain 1 set at exam pace with at least 60 percent accuracy and every error logged

Week 4: Domain 1 first pass is complete and a 60-question mock shows no subtopic below 40 percent accuracy

Week 6: Aptitude and reasoning timed sets both score above 70 percent, and your current-affairs sheet covers the last 12 months

Week 8: Full-length mocks show steady improvement over week 4, and you have a fixed section-order strategy plus a one-page exam-eve revision sheet
