Exam Structure and Important Details
The SSC MTS exam will be conducted in two sessions on the same day, covering different areas of assessment. The first session focuses on Numerical and Mathematical Ability along with Reasoning Ability and Problem Solving, while the second session covers General Awareness and English Language and Comprehension.
Session 1: Numerical and Reasoning Ability (Qualifying in Nature)
| Section | Number of Questions | Marks | Qualifying Criteria |
|---|---|---|---|
| Numerical and Mathematical Ability | 20 | 60 | Minimum 30% (12 out of 40) |
| Reasoning Ability and Problem Solving | 20 | 60 | “ |
| Total | 40 | 120 | “ |
The first session consists of 40 questions, 20 from each section, with a total of 120 marks. It serves as a qualifying round, requiring candidates to answer at least 30% of the questions correctly (i.e., 12 out of 40) to proceed. Importantly, there is no negative marking in this session, allowing candidates to attempt all questions without the fear of losing marks for incorrect answers.
Session 2: General Awareness and English Language (Merit-Based)
| Section | Number of Questions | Marks | Negative Marking |
|---|---|---|---|
| General Awareness | 25 | 75 | Yes (1 mark per wrong answer) |
| English Language and Comprehension | 25 | 75 | Yes (1 mark per wrong answer) |
| Total | 50 | 150 | “ |
In the second session, candidates face 50 questions divided equally between General Awareness and English Language and Comprehension, each carrying 75 marks. Unlike the first session, this part of the exam includes negative marking, with one mark deducted for every incorrect response. The scores from this session will directly determine the candidates’ positions in the final merit list. Given its weight in the selection process, candidates should prepare meticulously for these sections.
