DSSSB General Science High-Yield Syllabus Breakdown
Based on our analysis of past DSSSB TGT and PGT Computer Science question papers, General Science questions in Section A emphasize practical, NCERT-based core concepts rather than advanced derivations:
| Topic | Core Recurring Themes | Average Questions in Exam |
|---|---|---|
| Physics | Mirrors/lenses in automobiles, Total Internal Reflection (optical fibers), SI units, escape velocity, laws of motion. | 2–3 Questions |
| Chemistry | Baking soda, washing soda, acids in food items, rust prevention (galvanization), greenhouse gases, alloys (brass, bronze). | 1–2 Questions |
| Biology | Vitamins & deficiency diseases, blood groups (universal donor/recipient), cell organelles (mitochondria), communicable diseases. | 2–3 Questions |
| Environment | Montreal Protocol, Kyoto Protocol, food chains (10% law), ozone layer depletion. | 1 Question |
Frequently Asked Questions (DSSSB General Science PYQ)
1. How many Science questions are asked in DSSSB TGT Computer Science?
In DSSSB TGT Computer Science, Section A comprises 100 marks divided equally across 5 sections (20 marks each). Under the General Awareness (20 marks) section, General Science routinely accounts for 4 to 7 questions covering basic Physics, Chemistry, and Biology.
2. Does DSSSB deduct marks for wrong answers in Section A?
Yes. DSSSB follows a strict negative marking scheme where 0.25 marks are deducted for every incorrect option. Each correct answer carries 1 mark. Unattempted questions carry no penalty.
3. Which NCERT classes should I study for DSSSB General Science?
NCERT textbooks for Classes 8th, 9th, and 10th are sufficient. Focus on everyday applications: common chemical names/formulas, basic optical instruments, human nutrition, hormones, and disease classifications.
4. Why are optical fibers and semiconductor questions frequent in TGT Computer Science?
Optical fibers (Total Internal Reflection) and semiconductors directly link basic physics with computer hardware and data communication concepts, making them frequent favorites in both Section A and introductory Section B questions.
5. Can this practice quiz also be used for DSSSB PRT and PGT exams?
Yes. The syllabus and question bank for Section A (General Awareness, Reasoning, Maths, Hindi, and English) are common and standardized across all DSSSB teaching (PRT, TGT, PGT) and non-teaching posts (DASS, Head Clerk, Patwari).
