What each written exam and physical test covers, from each notice. General knowledge and maths are common to all five, and every exam has a running test and height standards. A dash means the notice we checked does not say.

Ask the study assistant anything about Police exams.
Each state runs its own: the UP Police Recruitment and Promotion Board, the Central Selection Board of Constable in Bihar, Rajasthan Police Headquarters, and the MP Employees Selection Board. Delhi Police Constables are recruited through an exam held by the Staff Selection Commission.
Yes, in all five here. But reservation and age relaxation are only for the state’s own domiciles in UP, Bihar, Rajasthan and MP; reserved candidates from other states apply as General. Delhi Police is open to all India with the same relaxation for everyone.
12th pass for UP Police, Bihar Police, Delhi Police and Rajasthan Police (Rajasthan also needs a CET Senior Secondary pass). MP Police Constable (GD) needs only 10th pass, or 8th pass for ST candidates.
