The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) conducts the JE (Junior Engineer) exam to recruit technical professionals in Indian Railways. If you’re a mechanical engineer, this exam opens doors to a secure government job with job stability, good salary, allowances, and most importantly—respect.
As a mechanical JE, you will be responsible for:
Pretty hands-on, right? Plus, it's a stable and secure job that makes use of your mechanical engineering knowledge.
Before jumping into preparation, we need to understand what the exam demands. The RRB JE exam is conducted in two Computer-Based Tests (CBT-1 and CBT-2) followed by Document Verification and Medical Examination.
| Subject | CBT-1 (100 Marks) | CBT-2 (150 Marks) |
|---|---|---|
| Mathematics | 30 | 15 |
| General Intelligence & Reasoning | 25 | 15 |
| General Awareness | 15 | 15 |
| General Science | 30 | 15 |
| Technical (Mechanical) | – | 100 |
Here’s a deep dive into the most important part for mechanical students: the technical section.
| Subject | Key Topics |
|---|---|
| Engineering Mechanics | Laws of motion, friction, gear, pulleys |
| Strength of Materials | Stress-strain, bending, torsion |
| Theory of Machines | Governors, gyroscopes, flywheel |
| Thermodynamics | Laws of thermodynamics, entropy, heat engines |
| Fluid Mechanics | Flow of fluids, Bernoulli’s equation, pumps |
| Heat Transfer | Conduction, convection, radiation |
| Machine Design | Failure theories, stress analysis, shaft design |
| Manufacturing Engineering | Casting, welding, machining, CNC |
| Industrial Engineering | Work study, inventory, plant layout |
| Mechatronics and Robotics | Basics, actuators, sensors (optional in some zones) |
Want to study smart? Then focus on topics with the highest weightage based on past RRB JE exams. Here's a table mapping important topics with frequency.
| Topic | No. of Questions (Avg) |
|---|---|
| Thermodynamics | 10-12 |
| SOM (Strength of Materials) | 8-10 |
| Manufacturing | 12-14 |
| Fluid Mechanics | 6-8 |
| Theory of Machines | 5-7 |
| Heat Transfer | 4-6 |
As you can see, Manufacturing, Thermo, and SOM are the big guns. Prioritize them, but don’t ignore the rest.
You can’t win a war without a strategy, right? Here’s a sample weekly study schedule you can use and customize:
| Week | Topics | Focus Area | Tasks |
|---|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | Thermodynamics + General Awareness | Concept Building | 3 hours daily + Notes |
| Week 2 | SOM + Reasoning | Practice & Shortcuts | PYQs + Test Series |
| Week 3 | Fluid + Manufacturing + Math Basics | Revision & MCQ Practice | Revise + Flashcards |
| Week 4 | Heat Transfer + General Science | Mock Test Week | 2 Full Mocks + Analysis |
Stick to a schedule. Consistency > Intensity.
