SSC does not publish a question paper archive. During the answer key window, candidates can see their own paper with responses on ssc.gov.in; after that, papers are available only as memory-based compilations. The table below lists the papers to practise first.

Each paper is a memory-based reconstruction from candidates' recall, so a few questions or options may differ from the original.

SSC GD Previous Year Question Paper with Solutions, in Hindi and English

SSC GD is bilingual: every question appears in English and Hindi, and you choose English or Hindi only for the language section (Part D). So a single paper serves both groups; just practise Part D in the language you will take. When picking a paper:

• Use solved papers for Maths and Reasoning, where the method matters more than the answer.
• Match the paper's date and shift to its answer key before checking your score.
• Prefer complete 80-question sets over partial lists of questions.

SSC GD Question Papers Year-Wise

The difficulty has stayed easy to moderate in all recent years, with Maths and Reasoning taking the most time. What changes from year to year is the current affairs window and the mix of static GK topics.

SSC GD Question Paper 2026

This is the most recent and most useful set. The 2026 exam was held over about five weeks in multiple shifts, so there are many shift papers to practise. With 21.56 lakh candidates and only 1.97 lakh shortlisted for the physical test, the competition was high, and the cut off is listed on the SSC GD result page.

SSC GD Question Paper 2025

The 2025 papers (4–25 February 2025) are the best second set. Maths in these papers leaned on percentage, ratio, average, profit and loss and simplification, which are worth mastering early.

SSC GD Question Paper 2024

The 2024 exam was the first held in 13 regional languages besides English and Hindi. Use these papers for extra Reasoning and Maths practice and for static GK, which repeats across years.

SSC GD Question Paper 2023

The 2023 papers were the first under the current 80-question, 160-mark pattern, so they are still fully relevant. Skip their current affairs questions, which are now out of date.

SSC GD Shift-Wise Question Papers

Each shift had a different paper, but the section split and difficulty band were the same. Practising papers from three or four shifts gives better coverage than repeating one. Topics that came up in almost every shift:

The SSC GD topic-wise weightage page breaks these down question by question.

SSC GD Exam Pattern 2026

The paper has four equal parts. Each question carries 2 marks, so one wrong answer costs 0.25 marks, a small penalty that makes careful guessing worthwhile.

The full topic list is on the SSC GD syllabus and exam pattern page.

Benefits of Solving SSC GD Previous Year Papers

Past papers do three things a textbook cannot:

• They show the real level, which for SSC GD is Class 10 and below, so you stop over-preparing advanced topics.
• They train speed: 80 questions in 60 minutes leaves 45 seconds a question.
• They reveal repeats, especially in static GK, English vocabulary and Reasoning patterns.

How to Prepare Using SSC GD Previous Year Question Papers

A simple routine works best:

• Finish the basics of all four parts first, then start full papers.
• Solve one full paper in 60 minutes, starting with 2026 and 2025 sets.
• Aim for about 65–70 attempts with 90% accuracy; recent cut offs for the general category in many states have needed 130+ marks out of 160.
• After each paper, list every wrong and skipped question by topic and revise those topics before the next paper.
• Move to two papers a week, then to topic-wise and full-length mocks in the last month.

Past SSC GD cut off trends help you set a state-wise target score.
