An analysis of TNPSC Group II & II A Exam (SEPTEMBER 14, 2024)
MIND GAMES DECIDES THE RESULTS
G. VISHNU PRIYA
TNPSC Group II and II A Prelims (2024) was held on 14th September 2024. It was a mind game, actually. An initial mini job of interchanging the Part A & B as GS and Language. Performance is usually based on the studied syllabus with current issue knowledge but this time it was quite different. General Studies (Part A) was the toughest part.
The mind game played very cleverly. At regular intervals, one or two easy questions were given to look up. The order and the level of the questions fell like ups and downs with mixed emotions of easy, funny, tricky ad cranky questions. More number of pair questions were asked than statement questions. In some places, eliminating the options in pair questions was difficult.
(25 Questions Apritude)
20 (Maths) - Easy and 5 (Reasoning) - Took time.
Language (Part B) part was unfair, General Tamil and English were not given equal mode.
Tamil - 10 to 15 questions were tough
English - 90+ easy
Overall, the question paper was moderate to tough. Though the questions were simple, it was difficut to attend. No recent current affairs had been asked. In fact, no questions on Government schemes, budget, Indices, Awards, Sports, Authors etc.. etc...
Only the state of mind determines the performance of the exam. Compared to Group I and IV (2024), Group II and II A standard and pattern of previous years questions were different.
