The exam pattern for the Tamil Nadu Police recruitment exams may vary depending on the specific position you are applying for, such as constable, sub-inspector, or other roles. However, here’s a general overview of the typical exam pattern:
- Written Examination:
- The written exam usually consists of multiple-choice questions (MCQs).
- The exam is conducted either offline (pen and paper mode) or online (computer-based test).
- The duration of the exam varies depending on the number of questions and sections.
- The written exam typically covers subjects such as General Knowledge, General English, Numerical Ability, Reasoning, and sometimes General Tamil (for exams conducted in Tamil Nadu).
- Each section may have a specific weightage, and candidates are required to secure minimum qualifying marks in each section.
- Physical Measurement Test (PMT):
- Candidates who qualify the written examination are called for the Physical Measurement Test (PMT).
- In PMT, candidates’ height and weight are measured to ensure they meet the prescribed standards specified by the Tamil Nadu Uniformed Services Recruitment Board (TNUSRB) or the conducting authority.
- Endurance Test:
- After PMT, candidates are required to undergo an Endurance Test, which usually involves running or walking a certain distance within a specified time.
- The distance and time requirements may vary based on the position and gender of the candidate.
- Physical Efficiency Test (PET):
- The Physical Efficiency Test (PET) assesses candidates’ physical fitness and endurance.
- It may include various physical activities such as running, long jump, high jump, and shot put.
- Candidates are required to perform these activities within specified parameters to qualify.
- Document Verification:
- Candidates who qualify the written exam, PMT, and PET are called for document verification.
- During document verification, candidates are required to submit their original documents for verification, including educational certificates, identity proof, caste certificate (if applicable), and other relevant documents.
- Medical Examination:
- Finally, candidates who clear all the above stages are called for a medical examination to ensure they meet the medical standards prescribed for the respective position.
It’s important for candidates to familiarize themselves with the specific exam pattern and syllabus mentioned in the official notification or guidelines provided by the TNUSRB or the conducting authority for the particular recruitment cycle.
