Who should apply: eligibility and quick checks
The calendar itself lists the educational level required for each CET. Check these before you plan to apply:
- Vanpal: CET for Sr. Secondary pass candidates.

Before you start preparing seriously, verify these documents and basics: your class/degree certificate, a government ID (Aadhaar, passport, or voter ID), and your photograph and signature files (digital copies). The calendar is the first step — full eligibility criteria, age limits and reservation details will be in the recruitment advertisement and application notice on the RSSB site.

Create a smart 3-month study plan keyed to the exam dates
You have fixed exam dates. Use a phased plan rather than cramming.
Phase 1 — Syllabus mapping & baseline (week 1): spend the first 5-7 days listing topics you must study and taking a short diagnostic test or self-check to find weak areas. For Sr. Secondary CETs, focus on common basics: numerical ability, reasoning, basic Hindi/English comprehension, and computer literacy. For Graduation-level CETs, expect questions that test higher-level comprehension and reasoning.
Phase 2 — Intensive study (weeks 2-8): allocate daily targets. Study 3-4 topics per week with short, timed practice sessions. Mix learning with practice. If you can study 4 hours daily: 60% on theory and problem practice, 30% on question-solving, 10% on current affairs and revision.
Phase 3 — Revision and mocks (weeks 9-12): switch to revision and full-length mock tests. Take at least one full mock every 3-4 days in the final month. Increase mock frequency to alternate days in the final two weeks. Review mistakes immediately and maintain an errors notebook.
Balancing college or work: study early morning or late evening slots for focused work. Convert commute time into revision time (audio notes, short quizzes). Keep one day weekly lighter for rest and consolidation.
High-impact preparation checklist for each post (Vanpal, Clerk, Women Supervisor)
Vanpal & Clerk Grade-II / Junior Assistant (CET — Sr. Secondary):
- Start with basic arithmetic, percentage, ratio, and simple algebra practice.
- Focus on reasoning puzzles and data interpretation at a basic-to-moderate level.
- Practice language sections: comprehension, grammar, and vocabulary in the required language(s).
- Revise computer basics—typing, MS Office concepts, and common computer terminology.
Women Supervisor (CET — Graduation):
- Emphasise reading comprehension and logical reasoning.
- Work on analytical sections and problem-solving that require more conceptual clarity.
- Keep up with current affairs and Rajasthan-specific general knowledge where relevant.
Study materials and mock strategy:
- Use standard Sr. Secondary and Graduation-level practice books and previous year CET-like papers.
- Join at least one test series or use online mock tests to simulate exam conditions.
- Track time per section and improve speed gradually.
Note: The RSSB calendar lists the exam dates but does not publish the detailed syllabus or pattern in the calendar PDF. Check the official recruitment notice when its released for the exact exam pattern.
Exam-day readiness: admit card, ID, travel and timing tips
Admit card and centre details are not included in the calendar PDF. RSSB will issue separate admit card notices closer to each CET. Monitor rssb.rajasthan.gov.in for admit card release information.
What to carry on exam day:
- Printed admit card and one original photo ID (Aadhaar or passport preferred).
- A passport-size photo (a duplicate of the one used at application) if mentioned in the admit card instructions.
- Transparent pen pouch with permitted stationery only. Electronic devices and calculators are generally not allowed.
Travel tips:
- Visit the exam centre a day earlier if the centre is in another city.
- Keep a buffer of at least 1-2 hours before the reporting time for security checks and last-minute formalities.
- Sleep well the night before. Short, focused revision is better than last-minute cramming.
