The General English section is a high-scoring 10-mark segment in the Kerala Police SI mains exam. Radhika Mohan, an English tutor for Kerala PSC at GJR Institute, emphasized giving equal importance to both grammar and vocabulary.
Because the mark is split evenly between Grammar and Vocabulary, your study plan needs to be balanced.

Preparation Strategy for General English Section
To secure these 10 marks, focus on these "repeat-pattern" areas often seen in Kerala PSC Police Sub Inspector Mains exams:
The "Must-Know" Grammar: Question Tags, Articles, and Prepositions are almost guaranteed questions in Kerala Police SI mains. Also, master Conditional Sentences (If-clauses), as they are a favorite for "Correction of Sentences" tasks.
The Vocabulary Trap: Don't just memorize synonyms for the upcoming Police Sub Inspector exam. Focus on Phrasal Verbs and Foreign Words (e.g., Ad hoc, Persona non grata), as these often confuse candidates and carry high value.
| SN | Other Study Materials & Resources |
|---|---|
| 1 | Indian Constitution: Study Notes |
| 2 | How To Study the BSA (Evidence Law)? |
| 3 | Governance & Administrative Law |
| 4 | Kerala Police SI Eligibility: Age, Height, & Physical Standards |
Direct/Indirect & Active/Passive: These usually appear as transformation questions in the General English section in Kerala PSC Police Sub Inspector question papers. Practice the rules for converting "Imperative" and "Exclamatory" sentences specifically.
