RRB NTPC: Railway Jobs for Non-Technical Posts
The Railway Recruitment Boards (RRBs) conduct the NTPC (Non-Technical Popular Categories) exam to fill posts such as Station Master, Goods Guard, Junior Clerk, Accounts Clerk, Senior Time Keeper and Commercial Apprentice across Indian Railways — one of the world's largest employers. Vacancies run into the tens of thousands, and applications into the crores, making it a fiercely contested exam.
NTPC is offered at two levels — undergraduate (12th pass) and graduate — and the process moves through a first computer-based test (CBT-1) that screens candidates, a deeper CBT-2, a skill or typing test where applicable, and document verification. The syllabus is aptitude- and awareness-based, with General Awareness carrying the single biggest share of questions.
PadhoDost offers free RRB NTPC practice built to the CBT-1 pattern: chapter-wise drills in Mathematics, General Intelligence & Reasoning and General Awareness, full-length section tests, instant scoring and your All-India rank. Every question comes with a worked solution, and static-GK and science topics are broken down so they actually stick.

Quick prep tips
- General Awareness has the most questions (40) — build a strong static-GK base and revise current affairs daily; it's the highest-return section.
- Speed up your arithmetic with shortcut methods so the 30 maths questions don't eat your time.
- Cover Class 10 general science thoroughly — it's frequently tested and quick to answer.
- Remember the 1/3 negative marking: skip questions you're genuinely unsure of rather than guessing blindly.
Frequently asked questions
Who is eligible for the RRB NTPC exam?
NTPC has two levels: undergraduate posts require a Class 12 (10+2) pass, while graduate posts require a bachelor's degree. Age limits vary by post and notification, with relaxations for reserved categories.
What is the RRB NTPC exam pattern?
The first stage, CBT-1, has 100 questions for 100 marks in 90 minutes, covering Mathematics (30), General Intelligence & Reasoning (30) and General Awareness (40), with +1 for a correct answer and -1/3 for a wrong one. Qualifiers move to CBT-2, followed by a skill or typing test where applicable and document verification.
