- Subject-specific topics will depend on the position for which the exam is being conducted. For example, for a TGT Science position, topics related to Physics, Chemistry, and Biology may be included. Similarly, for a PGT English position, topics related to English literature, grammar, and language skills may be included. It is important to refer to the official syllabus provided by DSSSB for the specific position to know the subject-specific topics.
