The National Talent Search Examination (NTSE) is one of the most prestigious competitive exams for school students in India. Cracking NTSE requires more than just textbook knowledge; it demands a high IQ, rapid problem-solving skills, and a deep understanding of Science and Social Studies. This curated resource collection provides all the necessary books and practice papers to help you clear both Stage 1 and Stage 2 with confidence.

MAT is often the section that determines the final rank. Unlike school exams, this tests your verbal and non-verbal reasoning. This resource includes intensive practice for topics like Number Series, Coding-Decoding, Mirror Images, and Blood Relations. Mastering these patterns is essential because they account for 50% of the total marks and require extreme time efficiency—usually less than 45 seconds per question.

The SAT section covers the NCERT syllabus of Classes 9 and 10. However, the questions in NTSE are often more analytical. The Science section requires a grasp of numerical physics and chemical reactions, while Social Science (History, Geography, Civics, and Economics) demands a thorough reading of every line of the NCERT. This PDF provides summary notes that highlight the “NTSE-favourite” facts and figures from the curriculum.

To secure the NTSE scholarship, we recommend a “Dual-Track” study plan. Dedicate at least one hour daily to MAT practice to build your logical “reflexes.” For SAT, focus heavily on Social Science, as it is often ignored by students but carries high weightage. Use the mock tests in this PDF to simulate the actual exam environment—timing yourself is crucial to ensure you don’t leave questions unattempted.
