Rajasthan CET Graduation Level Syllabus and Pattern

What the graduate CET does

Rajasthan uses one Common Eligibility Test to screen candidates for many subordinate and ministerial posts, instead of running a separate first round for each. The graduate level CET feeds twelve services, including:

• Patwari (revenue and irrigation), Village Development Officer and Tehsil Revenue Accountant
• Junior Accountant in state accounts and in the agricultural marketing board
• Women Supervisor and ICDS Supervisor, Deputy Jailor and Platoon Commander
• Hostel Superintendent Grade II in social welfare and tribal area development

Once you have a qualifying score, you apply separately when RSSB advertises each post. The main exam for that post then decides selection with a separate syllabus; two of the biggest posts have their next round explained on our Rajasthan patwari syllabus page and, separately, the Rajasthan VDO syllabus page.

Rajasthan CET graduation level exam pattern

Reports of the latest graduation level notice still give 150 questions, 300 marks and 3 hours, so the graduate paper is now longer than the class 12 level CET, which was cut to 120 questions in its own latest notice. RSSB does not fix how many items each subject gets; subject splits quoted online are guesses based on earlier papers.

The graduate list goes a step beyond the class 12 list in maths (geometry, trigonometry and averages) and in computers. Download the official syllabus PDF from the board's website, because the wording there decides what can be asked.

Qualifying score and who can apply

You need a bachelor's degree or equivalent, and reports of the latest notification say final year students can also apply. Applicants should be aged 18 to 40, with relaxations such as 5 years for general category women and for reserved category men of Rajasthan, and 10 years for reserved category women of Rajasthan. Check the full relaxation table, including ex-servicemen and divyang candidates, in the notification. Any extra qualification a post needs, such as a typing skill or a computer certificate, is checked at the stage of that post's own recruitment.

A 12 week plan for graduate CET

1. Weeks 1 to 4: the state's past and its heritage, followed by its physical geography with a blank outline map you fill in each week.
2. Weeks 5 to 6: polity and economy of India and Rajasthan, using the latest state budget highlights and economic review.
3. Weeks 7 to 8: sixty minutes daily on puzzles and numbers; add geometry and mensuration, which the class 12 paper skips.
4. Week 9: secondary school NCERT science, then computers, with a focus on e-governance and security terms.
5. Weeks 10 to 12: both language papers' grammar, twelve months of news, and complete three hour mocks shaded on a printed OMR.
