SSC GD Selection Process 2026

The recruitment process for SSC GD includes several rigorous stages for induction into CAPFs, SSF, and Assam Rifles. Success in each stage is mandatory for final selection.

1. Computer-Based Test (CBT)

The objective-type online exam assesses candidates across four key subjects: General Intelligence & Reasoning, General Knowledge & Awareness, Elementary Mathematics, and English/Hindi proficiency.

2. Physical Efficiency Test (PET)

3. Physical Standard Test (PST)

This stage involves the verification of physical measurements, including height, chest circumference (for male candidates), and weight, against official standards.

4. Medical Examination (DME/RME)

A comprehensive medical assessment is conducted to ensure candidates meet the necessary health and fitness requirements for the role.

5. Document Verification

The final phase requires the formal verification of all educational qualifications, proof of identity, and category-related certificates.

Final selection is based on overall CBT performance, contingent upon meeting qualifying standards in the PET/PST, medical clearance, and successful document verification.
