Kerala Secretariat Assistant Mock Tests, Syllabus & Complete Exam Guide

The Kerala PSC Secretariat Assistant recruitment fills the post of Assistant (recruited alongside Auditor) in the Kerala Government Secretariat, the Kerala PSC office, the Advocate General's office and allied offices. It is a degree-level recruitment and one of the most sought-after Kerala PSC posts, because a strong rank on the common objective paper can lead to a secure clerical-administrative job at the heart of the state government.

Selection runs through a single objective test whose score builds a ranked list; candidates on the list are then called in rank order for certificate verification and appointment as vacancies arise. The syllabus is broad — General Knowledge and current affairs, general science, quantitative aptitude and mental ability, and Malayalam — with a strong, distinctive emphasis on Kerala's social-reform renaissance and Indian polity.

The Kerala Renaissance is the heart of the General Knowledge section: the social reformers — Sree Narayana Guru, Ayyankali, Chattampi Swamikal and Vagbhatananda — the Vaikom and Guruvayur Satyagrahas, and the 1936 Temple Entry Proclamation come up again and again, so build these into strong, repeatedly revised notes. Pair this with a firm grip on Indian polity and the Constitution and steady current affairs.

General science and quantitative-and-reasoning questions are predictable and high-return, so drill degree-level science, arithmetic and reasoning until they are quick and reliable. Because a ranked list rewards every extra mark, aim for both speed and accuracy; even without negative marking, careless mistakes cost ranks. The Malayalam section rewards steady practice of grammar, sandhi, samasam, synonyms, antonyms and idioms in the Malayalam script.
