| Re: Assistant Statistical Officer Exam Study material
As you want to get APPSC Assistant Statistical Officers exam syllabus so here I am providing you same:
PAPER-I: GENERAL STUDIES
General Science
Current Events of National and International Importance.History of India and Indian National Movement. India and World Geography.General Mental Ability.
Questions on General Science will cover General appreciation and understanding of science including matters of every day observation and experience, as may be expected of a well educated person who has not made a special study of any particular scientific discipline. In current events, knowledge of significant national and international events will be tested. In History of India, emphasis will be on broad general understanding of the subject in its social, economic and political aspects. Questions on Indian National Movement will relate to the nature and character of the nineteenth century resurgence,
growth of Nationalism and attainment of independence. In geography emphasis will be on geography of India. Questions on geography of India will relate to physical, social and economic geography of the country, including the main features of the Indian agricultural and natural resources. On general mental ability, the candidates will be tested on reasoning and analytical abilities.
