About

You will be able to

  • Explain everyday physics - motion, force, energy, gravitation, light, sound and electricity - and solve simple numericals
  • Recall basic chemistry - atoms, periodic table, acids, bases, salts, metals and common chemical names and formulas
  • Describe the cell, human body systems, nutrition and common diseases with their causes
  • Answer questions on plants, genetics, ecology and environmental issues
  • Apply science facts to daily life situations asked in government exams
  • Attempt the science part of Railway, Defence and civil services prelims papers with confidence

Who it is for

  • RRB NTPC / Group D, Agniveer and NDA / CDS aspirants
  • UPSC and UPPSC prelims aspirants who need science basics
  • SSC and state exam aspirants with a general science section

What you need

  • Class 10 level science background is helpful but not essential
  • NCERT science books (Class 6-10) for revision

Questions

Is NCERT enough for general science in government exams?

Class 6-10 NCERT books cover most questions. This course adds exam-style practice and common traps.

Are numerical questions asked?

Yes, simple numericals on motion, energy, electricity and lenses are common in railway and defence papers; they are taught step by step.

I am from arts background. Can I follow?

Yes. Concepts are explained from the basics with daily-life examples.

How long is the course?

About 6 months covering physics, chemistry and biology with chapter tests.
