About This Syllabus

The Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission issued this scheme for the Assistant Architect post in the Public Works Department under Advertisement D-2/E-1/2024, S-06/01. The notice, dated 04 May 2026, is important because it settles the structure of the screening examination well before the proposed examination date, giving candidates a clear framework for preparation instead of relying on unofficial summaries. The recruitment is for only seven posts, so competition is likely to be close and small differences in accuracy can matter. Candidates should therefore treat the official notice as the primary source and check the Commission website for the detailed syllabus referred to in the notice. A practical approach is to build preparation around the two parts of the paper in proportion to their importance, while keeping regular revision of general studies so that it does not become a neglected area. Because the paper is objective and time-bound, regular practice with timed tests, careful reading of questions, and disciplined answering can help. Guessing without elimination carries a cost, so candidates should attempt questions they can narrow down and leave doubtful ones where appropriate. Finally, candidates should track official updates for the admit card and examination arrangements, and use this page only as a guide to the published scheme.
