SSC Exams After 10th: MTS, GD and Selection Post Guide
Compare SSC routes available at Matriculation level, the work they lead to, and the extra physical or post-specific requirements.
Start with your completed qualification
If your highest completed qualification is Class 10, begin with MTS, GD Constable and Matriculation-level Selection Posts. Do not assume every vacancy in those examinations has identical age, physical, medical or post conditions.

Frequently asked questions
Can I apply before my qualifying result is declared?
Only if the current notice allows it and you can prove the required qualification by its stated cut-off date. Read that clause exactly.
Can I apply for more than one SSC examination?
Usually yes when you meet each notice’s eligibility and submit each required application, but every notice remains independent.
Where do I confirm age relaxation?
Use the current official notification and the valid certificate rules for your category. Do not rely only on a general age table.
