Syllabus

You will have to sit for the written examination after you have qualified from the preliminary
section (preliminary medical examination and viva). In this examination there are four subjects
as follows:

Bengali - 50 marks (time 1 hours)

English - 50 marks (time 1 hours)

General Math - 50 marks (time 1 hours)

General Knowledge - 50 marks (time 30 minutes)

Pass number is 20 (twenty) for each subject. To qualify, you have to pass all the subjects. The
most important theme is English. If someone passes by 20 marks or near 20 marks, they are
called poor marks. There will be no problem if someone gets 20 marks in Bengali, General Math
or any of the subjects, but if someone gets 20 marks in English there may be a disqualification
problem. Therefore, give English more importance.

(There is no exact syllabus for Bangladesh army written examination. I would like to describe
below a useful guideline based on my own experiences and observations of past. Note that the
approximate syllabus below is just a written examination by the Bangladesh Army.)

Bangla: paragraph, translation and basic grammar like Shondhi, Case (Karok), Bagdhara,
Shomash, Ek kothay prokash etc.

English: translation, passage, paragraph, preposition, parts of speech, voice change, degree
change, sentence transformation, correct use of verb, idioms and phrases etc.

Mathematics: basically from class 9-10's general math. Each math is of 5 marks. If you are
weak in geometry you can skip it because there will not be more than one question from this
part.

General Knowledge: National anthem, name of the great Bir Srestho with their ranks, ranks of
army, abbreviations, capital city, currency, head offices of different organizations and current
issues about home and abroad. Reference book: Ajker Bishsho (latest addition)It's true that, this
written examination is not so hard, but many students fail because they ignore it. Don't make this
assassin's error. You have to prepare sufficiently to pass this exam. There are many guide books
on the market that will help you prepare.General knowledge is the most difficult topic. You must
spend a great deal of time memorizing different names and dates. You've got to practice
regularly. By the way, reading the newspaper helps a lot on this matter regularly.
