Nepal Police: the written paper
The Nepal Police written exam is objective and carries its own police-related subject alongside the general ones. Below is a short timed paper that shows which of them is currently weakest.
Where do you actually stand?
Five questions, two and a half minutes, 20% off for a wrong answer and nothing off for a blank — the same arithmetic as the real paper. At the end it names the subject costing you the most.
Sit a five-question paper
Same rules as the real thing. Two and a half minutes, 20% deducted for a wrong answer, nothing deducted for leaving one blank.
- 2:30 on the clock
- 20% negative marking
- Blank costs nothing

Accuracy is kept per subject rather than as one average, because an average hides the single subject that will fail you — which is the only thing worth knowing before the exam.
The official syllabus
The Public Service Commission publishes the syllabus itself, and it is updated from time to time. We link to it rather than reprinting it — a copy here could quietly go out of date, and somebody preparing from an outdated syllabus is worse off than somebody who read the original.
