Exam Overview
The Agniveer exam is typically held once a year through joinindianarmy.nic.in. Selection unfolds in two stages — first the Online Common Entrance Examination (CEE), followed by the Recruitment Rally, which involves physical tests.
As far as the information goes, the online application fee is around Rs 250 plus bank charges. It’s worth double-checking this figure against the official notification, though.
Details on vacancies, age limit, or the fee structure specific to this Bengaluru rally aren’t available in the source material. Candidates would do well to confirm these directly from the official notification.
Selection Process and Exam Pattern
The CEE runs for 60 minutes as an Online CBT, with 50 objective questions. The pattern does shift depending on the trade.

Army Clerk/SKT
Two different patterns have surfaced for this category in the source material, so both are listed here. The official notification should settle which one actually applies.
- First reported pattern: 50 questions, 200 marks. GK 5 questions/20 marks, General Science 5 questions/20 marks, Mathematics 10 questions/40 marks, with -1 mark for each wrong answer.
- Second reported pattern: 50 questions, 200 marks, 60 minutes. English 25 questions/100 marks, GK 5 questions, General Science 5 questions, Mathematics 10 questions, Computer Science 5 questions.
Syllabus Level
Across categories, the syllabus is broadly pegged at Class 8 to Class 12 level. The exam itself is bilingual, set in English and Hindi, in objective format.
General Knowledge draws on Indian History, Geography and the national movement. General Science, meanwhile, leans heavily on NCERT Class 10 concepts.
15-Day Preparation Plan
From today, 16 October 2026, to the expected exam date of 31 October 2026, candidates have exactly 15 days in hand. Splitting this stretch into three phases tends to work best.
Phase 1: Building the Foundation (Day 1-7, 16-22 October)
The focus this week should simply be brushing up on basic concepts across the syllabus.
- Mathematics: HCF/LCM, percentages, Simple and Compound Interest, averages
- General Science: Key chapters from NCERT Class 9-10 Physics, Chemistry and Biology
- General Knowledge: Indian history, geography, national movement
- Logical Reasoning: Series, coding-decoding, figure-based questions
- Daily physical training — running, push-ups, pull-ups — should start from this week itself
Phase 2: Deep Practice (Day 8-12, 23-27 October)
Pairing two subjects each day works well here — say, Mathematics with GK through previous year questions, and General Science with Reasoning through topic-wise MCQs.
- Attempt at least 2 timed topic quizzes daily
- Keep a note of recurring mistake patterns for quick review
- Step up the intensity of physical fitness training and keep practising for the Physical Fitness Test (PFT)
Phase 3: Revision and Mock Tests (Day 13-15, 28-30 October)
Don’t touch any new topic in the final three days — the entire focus should stay on revision and mock tests.
- Day 13-14: Take 2-3 full-length mock CBTs, 60-minute timer, with negative marking in mind
- Day 15: Light revision only, document verification papers kept ready, and enough sleep
Exam Day (31 October to 3 November, expected)
This is only an expected window — keep checking joinindianarmy.nic.in regularly for the final confirmation.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Guessing answers at random while ignoring negative marking
