The interview is the last 5% — and the part with the least written about it.
Almost every question traces back to four places: your own DAF, Bihar, the last year of news, and how you
would handle a situation. Free to read.
DAF Deep-Dive HIGH
Personal background · Education & subjects · Work experience · Hobbies & interests · Service preferences
Worth knowing: Anticipate questions on every line in your form (DAF). Know your district, state, college, hobby thoroughly. Reasons for joining services & service preference must be honest yet thoughtful.
Current Affairs (Last 1 Year) HIGH
National · Bihar · International · Economic survey · Schemes & policies
Worth knowing: Read 6–8 months of newspapers thoroughly before interview. Be ready with views (not just facts) on every major issue. Bihar issues — caste survey, migration, education, floods.
Worth knowing: Use STAR/PASA framework — Problem, Analysis, Solution, Aftermath. Show empathy + adherence to rule + creative solution. Honesty over impressive lying — the Board can detect bluffing.
Bihar — Specific Knowledge HIGH
History & culture · Geography & districts · Economy & schemes · Current developments · Famous personalities
Worth knowing: Know your district inside out — area, population, MLAs/MP, problems. Bihar schemes: Saat Nishchay 1 & 2, Mukhyamantri Kanya Utthan, JEEVIKA. Key figures — Karpoori Thakur, Jagjivan Ram, Jayaprakash Narayan.
Before the board
Everything on your DAF is fair game — your district, your graduation subject, your hobby, your
service preference. Prepare it as carefully as the syllabus, because it is the only part of the exam where
the questions are written about you.
Study these topics in order, and remember them
These questions are free to read. The app is the paid part, and it covers the whole exam rather
than stopping at Prelims: 83 Prelims topics, 34 Mains topics across 5 papers, the
interview, and 19 Bihar-specific topics — 94 chapters in reading order, each with a brief
on how the examiner asks it. ₹199 for a month, or ₹499 until your attempt is done — which is the one
to take if your exam is close.
