  • History and Culture of India.
  • Indian Polity.
  • Indian Economy.
  • Indian National Movement.
  • Aptitude & Mental Ability Tests and
  • General Tamil/ General English.
Let me explain about each topic in more detail.

TNPSC Group 2 Preliminary Exam Syllabus Analysis: General Science

General Science plays a key role in the current era of almost all governmental exams. Till 2010, each and every government exams related to administration level, gave more importance to social sciences. But, after 2010, equal weightage has been given to life science too. You can see almost 7-12 questions related to general life science is all TNPSC  as well as UPSC question papers. So, we must give the equal importance to general life sciences as well as general social sciences. General Science is further divided into 4 categories. Those 4 categories are,
  • Physics.
  • Chemistry.
  • Botany and
  • Zoology.
These 4 categories include a variety of topics. Physics deals with all basic Geo-Physical topics. The most important topics to be studied in Physics are General scientific laws, Inventions and Discoveries, Mechanics, Magnetism and Electricity. Similarly, chemistry also includes a variety of Organic and Inorganic topics. The major topics in chemistry include Elements and Compounds, Metals, Carbon, Nitrogen and Fertilizers.

The most important topics in Botany are Classification Of Living Organisms, Nutrition & Dietetics and Respiration.Zoology is more important than Botany because more questions are taken from Zoology in the recent years. The important topics in Zoology includes Circulatory System, Endocrine System, Reproductive System, Bio-diversity and Human Diseases. Now, lets move into the next topic.


TNPSC Group 2 Preliminary Exam Syllabus Analysis: Current Affairs


Current Events are nothing but Current Affairs. Current Affairs are the most important topic in any governmental exam. My first preference goes to Current Affairs. For Current Affairs, all you need to do is 'Read the newspaper'. Even, I have written an article on 'How To Read The Hindu Newspaper For UPSC And TNPSC Exams'. You can read that article which will help you to understand how to read The Hindu newspaper. Coming to the point, the Current Events section is also divided into 5 categories. Those categories are,
  • History.
  • Political Science.
  • Geography.
  • Economics.
  • Science.
Important topics in History for current affairs includes Who is who, Eminent Persons in sports, Latest events timeline, Latest books and its authors, Latest awards and honors. Important topics in Political Science includes Public elections, Role of government, Role of non-governmental organizations, Political parties and Policies. Important topics in current affairs for Geography includes Geographical Landmarks and ecological issues. Important topics in Economics includes current economic polices, country and state budgets. Current affairs for science includes latest inventions and technology.


TNPSC Group 2 Preliminary Exam Syllabus Analysis: Geography

Geography is one of the important subjects in which more questions are asked frequently. Most important topics in Geography are Solar system, Formation of earth, India's climate, rainfall, water resources, industries and soil types. Socio-Geographical topics include remote sensing and disaster management. I advise you not to memorize Geography. All I say is to understand the subject Geography! Its the most beautiful subject to read.


TNPSC Group 2 Preliminary Exam Syllabus Analysis: History & Culture Of India

History is the subject in which more number of questions are asked every time. So, study History well. We can classify Indian History into 3 categories. Those 3 categories are,
  • Ancient India.
  • Medieval India and
  • Modern India.
But, when we deeply analyze the question paper and pattern, TNPSC gives more importance to South Indian History. The topic History in TNPSC group 2 exam starts from the modern India, that is, from the advent of Europeans in India. So, study well the following topics: European Invasion, British rule and its policies, South Indian History and the most eminent persons in south Indian history. Don't worry about Indian freedom struggle here because separate section is given for Indian freedom struggle.



TNPSC Group 2 Preliminary Exam Syllabus Analysis: Indian Polity

Indian Polity has become an emerging topic in TNPSC and UPSC exams. We can expect around 5-7 questions on Indian Polity. Indian Polity is a very big subject. Indian Polity is also a confusing subject. So, you should study Indian Polity with utmost care. The  most important topic in Indian Polity includes Union, State, Territory, Fundamental right & duties, Union legislature, State legislature, RTI (Right To Information) and empowerment of women.


TNPSC Group 2 Preliminary Exam Syllabus Analysis: Indian Economy

We can expect around 3-6 questions from Indian Economy. The most important topic in Indian Economy includes Nature of Indian economy, 5 year plans, Land reforms, Agricultural reforms, Industrial growth, GDP (Gross Domestic Product), PCI (Per Capita Income) and Social sector problems like poverty, unemployment, education etc.


TNPSC Group 2 Preliminary Exam Syllabus Analysis: Indian National Movement

As I have stated earlier, a separate section has been given to Indian freedom struggle. Indian National Movement is a big topic and it includes all the story from Sepoy Mutiny to Indian Independence. Most important topics in Indian national movement includes 1857 revolt, INC (Indian National  Congress), Mahatma Gandhi, Jawarhalal Nehru, Subash Chandra Bose, Role of Tamil Nadu in freedom struggle and Tamil freedom fighters like V.O.Chidambaram Pillai, Periyar, Rajaji etc.


TNPSC Group 2 Preliminary Exam Syllabus Analysis: Aptitude

Aptitude & Mental Ability Tests accounts for 25 marks. So, If you study well, you can grab these 25 marks easily. We cannot point out particular important topics in this section. Every year different trend has been followed in Aptitude & Mental Ability Tests. But, after a deep analysis, I have suggested a few important topics here. They are Dice puzzles, Simple interest, compound interest, Logical reasoning and number series. Anyhow, read all the topics but the above mentioned topics are must-read topics.


TNPSC Group 2 Preliminary Exam Syllabus Analysis: General Tamil

The language paper accounts for a whole 100 marks in the TNPSC group 22 preliminary exam. Usually, the General Tamil is classified into 3 categories. Those 3 categories are
  • Grammar Of Tamil Language.
  • Literature Of Tamil Language and
  • Tamil Poets And Their Contribution To Tamil Language.
In this section, questions can be asked from anywhere. So, I can guarantee a particular topic here. So, read all the topics well. I have suggested few books below. Better read those books.

Similar to General Tamil, General English also accounts for 100 marks. General English is also categorized into 3 parts. Those 3 parts are
  • English Grammar.

  • English Authors And Their Literary Works.
Here also, I can't point out particular topics, because the syllabus is very big and you have to study a lot of topics. So, better read the books suggested below as they will come handy to your preparations.
