The SSC JE 2024 exam, number of vacancies, eligibility criteria, application dates, fee, and other details will be seen in the released SSC JE 2024 notification.

We know that many students must have started preparing for the SSC JE 2024 exam last year. Because every year, after one to two months of the release of the SSC JE notification, the exam will also be held, it is considered fixed. The same has happened this time too. The SSC JE notification was released on 28 march, and the SSC JE exam will be held on 5 to 7 july 2024. In such a situation, the students who have been preparing for it since last year are going to benefit from this exam. But those students who have not yet prepared for SSC JE 2024 need not be disheartened, as there is still a lot of time left to prepare for this exam. If you prepare by understanding the changes and updates in the SSC JE 2024 notification, then you can score very well in the exam.

All candidates are requested to read the SSC JE 2024 notification properly if they are going to appear in the SSC JE 2024 exam. Because there have been some changes this time as compared to before, prepare for the exam only after knowing these changes. For example, the SSC JE 2024 exam pattern, syllabus, mark distribution, etc. Let us know the SSC JE 2024 exam properly.

SSC JE 2024 Pattern

Dear students, before preparing for any type of exam, it is necessary to understand the pattern of that exam carefully. The student who prepares for the exam by understanding the pattern of the exam properly definitely gets success in that exam. As per the SSC JE 2024 notification, SSC JE is divided into two papers. Both papers are computer-based examinations. A table is being given below in which the Mode, Subject, number of Questions, maximum mark, and Duration will be seen. If you are going to prepare for the exam, then first understand it properly and then start preparing for the exam.

SSC JE Exam Pattern 2024 for Civil, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering:
