SSC JE VS RRB JE Syllabus

The Staff Selection Commission (https://ssc.nic.in/)every year recruits many Junior Engineers for various posts under SSC JE Recruitment. Working as an SSC JE is considered to be one of the most respected jobs in society. Thousands of Candidates apply for this job since it is one of the most renowned govt exam in the country. The SSC JE Examination is divided into three branches of engineering such as Civil, Electrical and Mechanical.

The Staff Selection Commission Junior Engineer(SSC JE) exam is conducted into two phases. Phase 1 consists of multiple choices questions with sections like General Intelligence and Reasoning, General Awareness and General Engineering. The Syllabus for the General Engineering portion varies upon which engineering branch the candidate is from.

In this Blog, we will check the detailed syllabus for both Phase 1 and Phase 2.

We hope this blog has given you detailed information on Syllabus for both SSC JE and RRB JE. The aspirants might have observed that the marks in RRB JE CBT – 1 is less than SSC JE Phase 1, and every year the vacancies of Railways recruitment board is higher than Staff Selection Committee. The conclusion is RRB JE is easier to qualify since the marks in the first stage is less as compared to SSC JE. The Phase 2 exams of both the section include the same technical knowledge needed.

That will be all from our end at Entri, hope your idea of joining into any of the above organization is clearer now. Entri wishes you all the best for your upcoming examinations.
