Computer Based Recruitment Test (CBRT) for Head of Testing

Start by downloading or opening the latest official syllabus issued by Goa Public Service Commission. Compare it section by section against the topic list mentioned here so nothing is missed.

Group topics by weight — give more attention to scoring sections such as Quantitative Aptitude, Reasoning, English, General Awareness, and any subject-specific paper applicable to your post.

Create a topic tracker (spreadsheet or notebook) where you mark every sub-topic as "not started", "in progress" or "revised twice" so you always know what is pending.

Split your preparation into three phases — concept building (60% of time), full-length practice (25%), and revision plus mock analysis (15%).

Solve at least one previous-year paper every week. It is the single most reliable indicator of question style, difficulty and time pressure.

Maintain a short notes book of formulas, current-affairs highlights and frequently asked GK facts. Review it the night before the exam.

Take a sectional mock every alternate day in the last month and a full mock every weekend to build stamina and timing.

Attempt the easier section first to build confidence and bank time for harder questions later.

Mark questions for review instead of getting stuck. A government exam is won on accuracy plus attempt count, not on solving every question.

If there is negative marking, skip a question rather than guessing blindly unless you can eliminate at least two options.
