RRB NTPC Exam 2025: Syllabus And Exam Pattern
While announcing the schedule, the RRB is also expected to issue the syllabus, exam pattern, duration, and other details. Typically, the NTPC exams are based on four subjects: mathematics, general intelligence and reasoning and general awareness. This exam pattern is followed for many recruitment exams in India.
The CBT exam typically lasts for 90 minutes. Candidates should note that there is a negative marking for incorrect answers, with one-third of a mark deducted for each wrong response.
RRB NTPC Exam 2025: Selection Process
Through the NTPC exams, the RRB hires candidates for posts such as Traffic Assistant, Junior Clerk, Accounts Clerk, and Commercial Apprentice, among others. The RRB NTPC exam is conducted in multiple phases, including typing and computer-based tests (CBT).
In its announcement, the board will clarify the sequence of these phases and the expected duration between the two exams. Typically, candidates have to attempt the CBT 1, CBT 2, and Typing Skill Test/Computer-Based Aptitude Test phases to clear the RRB NTPC selection process (as applicable for the relevant position).
Following this, the board will conduct a document verification stage as well as a medical examination to confirm the eligibility of the final candidates.
The final selection is based on the performance of the candidates across all stages. The typing test is applicable for posts such as Junior Account Assistant-cum-Typist, among others.
