How to prepare for this track
Kerala PSC is a recruitment body, not a college entrance examination. Common preliminary tests and individual mains examinations have different syllabi.
The 2025 degree-level syllabus assigns 50 marks to general knowledge, 20 to arithmetic and mental ability, 20 to English and 10 to regional language. The initial bank does not yet cover every subtopic.
Revise Kerala history and geography alongside the Constitution, general science, language and reasoning. Use custom practice to isolate a weak subject, then compare first attempts on a fixed mock.
- Read the organising authority’s syllabus and mark the topics you have already studied.
- Take a fixed mock without pausing the timer. Record weak subjects and the questions where you guessed.
- Review the explanations, revisit the source material, then use a custom set for focused practice. Return to a different fixed mock to check progress.
