Common questions about preparing for this exam
Eight to ten weeks is enough for most first-time takers. The Clerical Ability section is the swing factor — daily filing and alphabetising drills lift scores faster than another verbal review.
Sub-Pro tests Clerical Ability where Pro tests Analytical. Verbal and Numerical are also lighter on Sub-Pro. Both still need 80% to pass, but Sub-Pro is more about speed and accuracy than abstract reasoning.
If your government role needs second-level eligibility (most professional posts), take Pro. Sub-Pro covers first-level positions — clerical, filing, and admin support roles.
