How to Prepare for DSSSB MTS Exam 2026
- Start with the syllabus and marks split. Each of the five subjects carries equal marks (40 each), so no single subject should be left for the last weeks.
- Build a weekly timetable by subject. Give fixed slots to arithmetic and reasoning, which need daily practice, and shorter daily slots to Hindi, English and general awareness.
- Use the 0.25 negative marking to your advantage. Practise attempting only the questions you can answer with reasonable confidence, and track wrong attempts in every mock.
- Solve previous year papers and full-length mocks. Practise finishing 200 questions in 120 minutes, since there is no separate time limit for each section.
- Revise formulas and static topics regularly. Keep a short sheet for arithmetic formulas, Hindi grammar rules and general awareness facts for quick revision.
- Do not ignore the language papers. The Hindi and English sections carry 80 marks together, so grammar and comprehension practice should be part of the daily routine.
