Real test conditions

Before you launch the test

This is the computer-based test format, not a quiz page: one clock, a question palette, and no way back once a section closes. Read these first.

  • It runs in full screen. The test takes over the screen when it starts, the way the real computer-based test does.
  • Leaving it is counted. Switching away is recorded and warned about; the third time, the paper is submitted for you.
  • The clock runs for 120 minutes. Set aside that long, uninterrupted. It starts when you begin, keeps running if you close the tab, and submits the paper at zero.
  • 3 timed sections. Each section has its own limit, and a section you have finished cannot be returned to.

  • English: synonyms, antonyms, one-word substitution, fill in the blanks, error spotting, indirect speech, sentence rearrangement, a cloze passage and a reading passage on supermarket packaging and nutrition labels

Areas worth revising for the SSC Steno written paper

  • Samudragupta's conquests, inscriptions and coins
  • The Contingency Fund of India and the constitutional articles that create bodies such as the Election Commission
  • Saponification, which gives glycerol along with soap, and the functions of cell organelles
  • Subject-verb agreement with 'a number of' versus 'the number of'
  • Reported speech rules, including universal truths that stay in the simple present tense

How Grade C and D candidates can prepare better

  • Sketch every direction and circular seating question on rough paper before choosing an option
  • Keep one sheet of constitutional articles beside the bodies they set up
  • Revise vocabulary as synonym and antonym pairs so one list serves both question types
