CISF SI Exam Pattern, Papers & Books

Prep materials for CISF SI Exam -Syllabus, Sample Papers & Books

CISF SI Exam Pattern Sample Papers Prep BooksAs I had told you in my previous blog article titled: CISF SI Recruitment 2012 (LDCE) Notification, Form & Eligibility, this blog post is being made to help you prepare for the CISF SI (Sub-Inspectors) Exam by pointing you to the exam prep materials of CISF SI Exam - Sample Papers & Prep Books

At first let me tell you that although this article is being made on the eve of Limited Departmental Competitive Exam (LDCE) for Sub-Inspectors in CISF - the prep materials (i.e. Syllabus, Sample Papers & Books) can also be used for future examinees i.e. CISF SI Exam 2013/ 2014 as the pattern of the exam/selection process is not going to change soon. 

CISF SI exam pattern:
CISF SI Exam PatternAs mentioned in the notification, CISF Sub-Inspectors written exam consists of a single paper of total 200 marks, which has to be answered in 3 ½ Hours. The table at right gives you a clear idea about the test sections and mark distribution in the CISF SI exam paper.

These test sections are identical to the SSC SI exam for recruitment of Sub-Inspectors  in the four CAPF (Central Armed Police Force) organisations - BSF, CISF, CRPF & ITBP, which you can find in the table below as well as in my previous blog post titled: SSC CAPF SI/ASI Exam Sample Papers, Books, Syllabus. If you analyse these two exam pattern/format closely, you will find that only "Part-C Quantitative Aptitude" section of CISF SI Exam is named as "Numerical Ability" in SSC CAPF SI exam, which actually means the same thing. Therefore, you can use the prep materials (i.e. Sample papers & Books) for CAPF to prepare for CISF SI Exam.

SSC CAPF SI exam patternThis exam format of CISF SI Exam is also similar to Bank Clerical/PO exams - which also has similar four test sections - Test of reasoning, General Awareness, Numerical Aptitude & test of English language. Since the test section and even mark distributions are so similar, you can therefore use the banking exam papers & books to prepare for CISF Exam.

Syllabus for SSC CISF SI Exam:
No syllabus has been prescribed in the exam notification for CISF SI exam. However, you can use the following syllabus prescribed of Delhi Police SI Exam as a reference syllabus:

Part-1. General Intelligence & Reasoning : It would include questions of both verbal and non-verbal type. This component may include questions on analogies, similarities and differences, space visualization, spatial orientation, problem solving, analysis, judgment, decision making, visual memory, discrimination, observation, relationship concepts, arithmetical reasoning and figural classification, arithmetic number series, non-verbal series, coding and decoding, statement conclusion, syllogistic reasoning etc.

The test will also include questions relating to India and its neighboring countries especially pertaining to History, Culture, Geography, Economic Scene, General Polity, Indian Constitution, scientific Research etc.

CISF SI Exam Sample/Previous years Papers:
I searched on the net for some sample/previous years papers of CISF SI Exam but could not locate any reliable, authentic papers. However, following two papers of SSC CAPF SI exam can act as eye openers:

From placementpapers.net:

Since the above two papers can only act as eye-openers, I would recommend you to use the following books for preparing for CISF SI Exam, if you are serious about it.

Prep Books for CISF SI Exam:
I found following books good for preparation for CISF SI Exam. These books are for Sub-Inspectors (SI) Exam for CAPF (Central Armed Police Forces) i.e. BSF, CISF, CRPF, ITBP, SSB etc. Hence besides CISF, these books can also be used for SI exam for  other forces i.e. BSF, CRPF, ITBP, SSB etc

The books are available in most of the bookstores, but you can also order them online by clicking the links below, from Flipkart.com which offers huge discounts from 10% to 25%, apart from free postage in India if the order exceeds Rs. 200/=.

In addition, as the exam pattern is identical, following prep books for Delhi Police SI Exam can also be used  to prepare for CISF Exam:

As I had told above, CISF SI Exam is similar to Banking exams. Therefore, in addition to above, you can also go through the study materials posted for following banking exams:
