I'm appearing for the upcoming DCIO (Tech) exam (I don't know when) and, to be honest, I know very little about how this exam actually plays out.

Based on the syllabus and the available PYQ (Test Booklet 0008741 – GAT DCIO), it looks like the technical section is roughly 85 questions (CS + ECE) along with 15 Quantitative Reasoning questions.

For the CS portion, I'm following multiple resources (NPTEL, GFG articles, standard textbooks, etc.), so I'm fairly confident about covering that. My bigger concern is the ECE portion, which seems to account for 43–48 questions—too significant to ignore.

NPTEL has excellent lectures for almost every ECE topic, but the content is extensive. Since I also want to prepare CS thoroughly (to keep my preparation aligned with exams like **IBPS SO (IT Officer)-**29 Aug and SEBI Grade A IT), I'm not sure how deep I should go into ECE.

For those who've appeared for the exam:

• Which ECE topics deserve the highest priority?
• Are there any good, concise resources for theory + MCQ practice?
• Is there any book, notes, or question bank that closely matches the actual level of the exam?
• If you had to prepare the ECE part in a month or two, how would you approach it?

Any guidance or resource recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi everyone,

Was anyone scheduled to appear for the IFFCO GET (CS/IT) online preliminary exam today?

The exam was supposed to be conducted online, but the recruitment portal has been showing "Under Maintenance" for the past few hours. I'm unable to access the exam portal or find any official update regarding whether the exam has been postponed or if there's a technical issue.

Just wanted to check:

• Is everyone facing the same problem?
• Has anyone been able to log in or start the exam?
• Did anyone receive an email, SMS, or any official communication from IFFCO regarding this situation?

It would be helpful if candidates from different locations could share their experience so we can understand whether this is a widespread issue or something specific.

Thanks, and best of luck to everyone!
