DSSSB Admit Card 2026
For scheduled CBTs, DSSSB states that the e-admit card will carry the examination centre, date and timing. Candidates should monitor both the Board website and OARS for the download link and instructions.
- Check your exact post code before downloading the e-admit card.
- Match the name, photograph, exam date, shift and reporting time with your application details.
- Read the exam-day instructions on the admit card; do not rely on a coaching website for entry rules.
- If DSSSB changes a date or shift, the official notice and candidate portal take priority over this guide.
DSSSB Eligibility 2026
There is no single DSSSB eligibility rule for every vacancy. Treat eligibility as a post-code-specific check, not a generic graduation requirement.
TGT Computer Science • 41/26
The notification accepts specified routes such as BCA; graduation in Computer Science with the subject studied across the required years; BE/BTech in Computer Science or IT; or a graduation route with DOEACC A-Level, subject to the exact wording of the official recruitment rules. The advertised age limit is up to 30 years.
Domestic Science Teacher • 42/26
The official notification requires the prescribed Bachelor’s qualification in Domestic Science/Home Science together with B.Ed. with Domestic Science/Home Science as a teaching subject. The advertised age limit is up to 30 years. Candidates must verify the exact qualification wording before applying.
AE / JE / Legal / Special Education Posts
Eligibility is department- and post-specific. AE Civil, JE Civil and Legal Assistant do not share one universal qualification or age rule. Special Education posts also have their own professional qualification requirements. Use the post code in the advertisement and read its exact essential qualification, experience, age limit and relaxation clauses.
- Step 1 — Match your post name and post code.
- Step 2 — Read Essential Qualification before Desirable Qualification.
- Step 3 — Check whether experience is mandatory and the cut-off date for possessing it.
- Step 4 — Check category, age relaxation and any Delhi-specific condition in the exact advertisement.
- Step 5 — Recheck all corrigenda issued after the advertisement.

DSSSB Exam Pattern 2026
The safest way to explain DSSSB pattern is post-wise. The teaching pattern below is directly relevant to Advertisement 03/2026 Post Codes 41/26–44/26.
Teaching Posts 41/26–44/26
- One Tier Technical / Teaching examination
- Duration: 2 hours
- Total: 200 questions for 200 marks
- Section A: 100 questions / 100 marks
- Section A areas: General Awareness, Reasoning, Numerical Ability, Hindi and English — 20 marks each
- Section B: 100 questions / 100 marks from the subject concerned, including teaching methodology / B.Ed.
- Negative marking: 0.25 mark for each wrong 1-mark MCQ
Other DSSSB Posts
Do not copy the teaching pattern to every post. Technical, non-technical and Advertisement 01/2026 posts can have different one-tier or two-tier schemes, descriptive components or job-specific tests. The examination scheme printed against the exact post code is controlling.
- Skill Test / Physical Endurance / Driving / Trade / Aptitude tests may apply when the job requires them.
- DSSSB may normalize CBT scores when required.
- Draft answer keys are displayed after the examination and objections are accepted within the Board’s notified window.
Verify Your Post-wise Examination Scheme
DSSSB Syllabus 2026
The official examination scheme defines the Section A areas and post-specific Section B. The exact domain syllabus should be matched to the qualification and syllabus notice for your post code rather than copied from another DSSSB post.
General Awareness
Current affairs and general awareness areas relevant to the notified scheme. Prepare from reliable sources and map practice to DSSSB PYQs.
Reasoning Ability
General Intelligence and Reasoning Ability as named in the official Section A scheme.
Numerical Ability
Arithmetical and Numerical Ability as named in the official Section A scheme.
Hindi Language
Hindi Language and Comprehension; language papers are in the language concerned.
English Language
English Language and Comprehension; focus on comprehension, grammar and exam-aligned practice.
Subject / Methodology
For teaching Post Codes 41/26–44/26, Section B is the subject concerned and includes teaching methodology / B.Ed.Scholars SSC Academy preparation guidance: build Section A speed without sacrificing Section B depth. For teaching posts, subject knowledge and teaching methodology together carry 100 marks, so a generic SSC-only preparation plan is incomplete.

Scholars SSC Academy Preparation Framework
This section is preparation advice from Scholars SSC Academy, not an official DSSSB rule. It is included to help candidates turn the notification into an actionable study plan.
Map
Phase 1
Read your post code, scheme and syllabus first. Create a topic checklist before choosing books or mocks.
Build
Phase 2
Strengthen Section A fundamentals while giving daily protected time to the domain or teaching subject.
Test
Phase 3
Use timed sectional tests, then full CBT-style mocks. Track accuracy because negative marking punishes random attempts.
Revise
Phase 4
Use an error log, PYQs and short revision cycles. In the final phase, prioritize weak high-value topics instead of starting new sources.For teaching Post Codes 41/26–44/26, the official scheme gives 100 marks to Section B, including the subject concerned and teaching methodology/B.Ed. Your preparation should therefore be balanced around both aptitude and domain performance.
How We Verify DSSSB Updates
Trust matters more than artificial freshness. This guide is updated only when the underlying information changes and prioritizes first-party DSSSB and OARS sources.
- Primary source: DSSSB official vacancy notices and corrigenda.
- Application status: DSSSB OARS and special candidate portal where applicable.
- Exam dates: DSSSB official online examination schedule.
- Pattern, fee and eligibility: the exact advertisement and post-code rules.
- Correction policy: original figures remain labelled as original when a later corrigendum changes them.
- Preparation advice is labelled separately so candidates can distinguish official rules from academy recommendations.
