Bihar Police Sub-Inspector — How to prepare

From advertisement to appointment

  1. Watch the commission’s home page Every notice is a PDF there; the PET date for the 2025 round will appear as one.
  2. Learn the sheet before the syllabus Roll number, booklet number, signature and the two declaration paragraphs in the candidate’s hand — the admit-card notice sets them out.
  3. Prepare Paper 2 as the examination Two hundred marks across seven heads decide everything; the Hindi paper and the preliminary only admit.
  4. Know the minimum for the category 40, 36.5, 34 or 32 per cent in Paper 2 is required for the final list regardless of rank.
  5. Train the four events The race fails a third of those called; the jumps and the put allow three attempts each.

Confirm the structure against your own notification

BPSC, BSSC, the constable board and the state’s other recruiting bodies revise schemes, ratios and dates between cycles, and the advertisement for your cycle is the document that binds. The figures here are from the latest documents on the official sites at the date checked and are labelled where they come from an older cycle.
