SAASS Police Academy Exam study plan

SAASS Police Academy Exam · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 7 hours per week

Week 1

English Language and Comprehension & Law and Legal Awareness

  • Map the English section into its three question types (grammar and usage, vocabulary, reading comprehension) and log the error pattern behind every wrong answer in a personal error log.

  • Drill subject-verb agreement, tense consistency, articles, prepositions, and pronoun reference until you can explain each rule in one sentence without notes.

  • Build a 60-word list of commonly confused pairs (affect/effect, principal/principle, lie/lay) and use each pair in a self-written sentence.

  • Read the core constitutional articles on fundamental rights and police powers, then summarize each in two lines of your own words.

  • Sketch the hierarchy of courts from magistrate to Supreme Court and state one appellate fact about each level.

Your checkpoint

A 25-item self-made English grammar and vocabulary quiz with an answer key and a one-line rule citation for each answer.

Week 2

English Language and Comprehension & Law and Legal Awareness

  • Time yourself on two 20-minute reading comprehension sets and mark the sentence in the passage that justifies each correct option.

  • Practice skimming for main idea versus scanning for detail, and write down which strategy each question type rewards.

  • Draft a one-page glossary of core criminal-law terms (cognizable offence, FIR, arrest, bail, custody, summons) with a plain-language definition for each.

  • Compare the rights of an arrested person at the police station against the duties of the arresting officer, and list five checkpoints a defence lawyer would test.

  • Explain the difference between civil wrong and criminal offence using two original examples.

Your checkpoint

A timed reading-comprehension log of 20 questions showing time taken, score, and the passage line that supported each answer.

Week 3

Mathematics and Quantitative Aptitude & Logical Reasoning and Analytical Ability

  • Rebuild arithmetic fundamentals: percentages, ratio and proportion, averages, profit and loss, and simple and compound interest, solving 10 problems per topic with a written shortcut for each.

  • Solve speed, time and distance plus time-and-work problems using unit-rate tables rather than formula memorization.

  • Practice number series and coding-decoding sets, recording the rule you inferred before checking the answer.

  • Draw truth tables for AND, OR, NOT, and implication, then translate five verbal statements into symbolic form.

  • Work syllogism and blood-relation puzzles and justify each conclusion with a Venn diagram or family tree.

Your checkpoint

A formula-and-shortcut sheet covering 12 quantitative topics, each with one solved example written in your own words.

Week 4

Mathematics and Quantitative Aptitude & Logical Reasoning and Analytical Ability

  • Complete a 60-minute mixed quantitative mock under exam timing and classify every error as concept gap, calculation slip, or misread question.

  • Solve data-interpretation sets from tables, bar charts, and pie charts, and state which single figure answers each sub-question fastest.

  • Practice seating arrangement, direction sense, and ranking puzzles with a diagram-first habit.

  • Analyze assumption, conclusion, and strengthening/weakening arguments by separating evidence from claim in each stimulus.

  • Re-derive the shortcut sheet from memory and flag any formula you could not reproduce.

Your checkpoint

A scored 60-minute quantitative and reasoning mock with an error-classification table and a written fix for the three costliest mistakes.

Week 5

General Knowledge and Current Affairs & Physical Fitness and General Science

  • Build a dated current-affairs timeline for the last 12 months covering national policy, appointments, sports, awards, and science milestones, with one line per event.

  • Explain the structure of Indian governance (legislature, executive, judiciary, federal division of powers) and locate where policing sits in that structure.

  • Describe the physiological systems most relevant to police fitness (cardiorespiratory, muscular, skeletal) and how each adapts to endurance versus strength training.

  • Summarize basic nutrition and hydration principles for sustained physical effort, including why warm-up and cool-down reduce injury risk.

  • Explain first aid for bleeding, fractures, burns, heat exhaustion, and unconsciousness in a five-step sequence per condition.

Your checkpoint

A 40-item current-affairs and general-science revision sheet with answers folded to the back for self-testing.

Week 6

Basic Computer Knowledge & General Knowledge and Current Affairs

  • Operate core computer functions hands-on: file and folder management, keyboard shortcuts, and basic troubleshooting for a frozen or slow system.

  • Explain the roles of CPU, RAM, ROM, storage, and operating system, and distinguish hardware from software with examples.

  • Practice word-processing and spreadsheet tasks: formatting a document, entering a formula, and sorting a table.

  • Describe safe internet and email habits, including password hygiene, phishing recognition, and the purpose of a firewall and antivirus.

  • Review the current-affairs timeline and update it with the most recent month's events.

Your checkpoint

A one-page computer-literacy cheat sheet plus a screenshot-free written walkthrough of creating, saving, renaming, and emailing a document.

Week 7

Physical Fitness and General Science & Law and Legal Awareness

  • Run a self-administered fitness benchmark (timed run, push-ups, sit-ups, sit-and-reach) and record results against target standards.

  • Design a four-week progressive training schedule that alternates endurance, strength, and mobility days with at least one rest day.

  • Apply legal reasoning to five original fact patterns, identifying the offence, the applicable right, and the correct procedural step.

  • Explain police accountability mechanisms, including complaint channels and the consequences of custodial misconduct.

  • Connect physical-fitness standards to the science of training load, recovery, and injury prevention.

Your checkpoint

A fitness benchmark card with baseline numbers, target numbers, and the four-week training schedule you will follow.

Week 8

English Language and Comprehension & Mathematics and Quantitative Aptitude & Logical Reasoning and Analytical Ability

  • Take two full-length timed mocks under exam conditions and score each section separately.

  • Re-audit the error log and re-solve every question you previously missed without looking at the old solution.

  • Rehearse a section-order and time-budget strategy, then test it in the second mock and compare scores.

  • Revise the current-affairs sheet, formula sheet, and legal glossary in three spaced passes.

  • Confirm exam-day logistics: documents, reporting time, fitness-test attire, and rest plan for the preceding 48 hours.

Your checkpoint

A final mock scorecard showing section-wise scores, comparison with week 4, and a three-item list of remaining weak spots with a revision action for each.

Milestones

Week 2: Score at least 70% on your 25-item English quiz and explain every grammar rule behind a wrong answer without notes.

Week 4: Complete the 60-minute quantitative and reasoning mock with at least 60% accuracy and every error classified by cause.

Week 6: Recall 30 of 40 items on the current-affairs and science sheet and perform the listed computer tasks unaided.

Week 8: Improve total mock score by at least 15% over week 4 while keeping each section above 50%.
