Preparing for the All India Sainik Schools Entrance Examination (AISSEE) requires a slightly different focus than JNVST, as AISSEE includes General Knowledge and has a higher weightage on Mathematics (3 marks per question).

Below is the year-wise analysis and difficulty trend for AISSEE Class 6 (2021–2025).


AISSEE 2025 Paper Analysis

  • Mathematics: Highly conceptual. Focus on Roman Numerals, LCM/HCF, and Algebraic expressions. Approximately 10 questions were application-based (word problems).

  • Intelligence: Standard patterns but with more Non-Verbal Reasoning (Mirror images and embedded figures).

  • General Knowledge: Heavy emphasis on Static GK (Firsts in India, National Parks) and General Science (Human body, Plants).

  • Language: Grammar-heavy. Direct/Indirect speech and Active/Passive voice saw a surprise appearance in some sets.

AISSEE 2024 Paper Analysis

  • Mathematics: Calculation-intensive. Topics like Profit & Loss, Simple Interest, and Unitary Method dominated the paper.

  • Intelligence: Tricky Mathematical Analogies and Coding-Decoding.

  • General Knowledge: Strong focus on Scientific Instruments and Indian Freedom Struggle.

  • Language: Reading comprehension was straightforward, but vocabulary (Synonyms/Antonyms) was challenging.

Note: AISSEE is out of 300 marks. A score above 250 is generally considered very safe for top-tier Sainik Schools.


Subject-Wise Strategy Tips

  • Mathematics (150 Marks): This is the "Rank Maker." You cannot afford to skip Fractions, Decimals, and Percentage, as they form the base for 40% of the paper.

  • Intelligence (50 Marks): Practice Number Series and Blood Relations daily. These are "easy marks" if you know the patterns.

  • General Knowledge (50 Marks): Don't just read history; focus on Awards, Sports, and Geography (Rivers/Mountains).

Language (50 Marks): Focus on Parts of Speech. The NTA often tests the identification of Adjectives and Adverbs in sentences.
