Good news for all Jharkhand PSC aspirants! Jharkhand Public Service Commission (JPSC) has issued a tentative plan of examinations for 2026. Each stage of the examination process (written exam, main exam, interview, and document verification) will be provided for you to assist you with your preparation.
With the announcement of the tentative exam dates, the candidates will have the ability to create a syllabus breakdown, set daily goals for their studies, and allow themselves to dedicate extra time to the areas in which they have difficulties. With the ability to plan ahead, it will be easier to complete mocks, review previous years’ papers, and attend revision classes than to rush to complete this as the day of the examination approaches.
A helpful hint to make planning easier: as these dates are tentative, be sure to regularly check the Jharkhand PSC website for periodic updates regarding any important deadlines. If the exam dates change, then you will be able to modify the plan that you have made for your preparation accordingly.
It is important to understand that passing the Jharkhand PSC exam requires more than just working hard; it is also about working smart. By using the exam schedule to guide your preparation efforts, you will feel more comfortable with each stage of the examination process and have less last-minute stress, thereby giving yourself a better chance to attain success!
