The Staff Selection Commission has now officially released the SSC CHTE 2024 Tier-II exam city details, and this means it’s time to pull up your socks. Knowing your exam center early helps you plan better, avoid last-minute chaos, and stay focused on revision. Let’s break down everything you need to know, from city allotment to venue instructions, and a few things no one usually talks about.

Why Exam City Intimation Is a Big Deal 📍
A lot of candidates think exam city info is “just another update”—but nope, it’s much more than that. It can actually affect your performance. Here’s how:
Factor
Impact
Travel Time
Long-distance cities can cause fatigue
Local Language
Unknown city = language issues for many
Venue Familiarity
New cities can bring nervousness and confusion
Planning Stay
You can book hotels or local stay options in advance
Mental Preparation
Helps reduce exam-day anxiety
A friend of mine last year got Pune as her center even though she lives in Kolkata. She didn’t check city details until 3 days before the exam and ended up booking last-minute tickets at double the price. Trust me—don’t make that mistake.
Real-Life Experiences from Aspirants 👥
These little things matter more than people admit. Take Rohit, a Tier-II qualifier from Delhi. He shared how knowing his center 10 days before the exam helped him plan his train tickets and even find a nearby hotel under ₹500 per night.
Another candidate, Priya from Hyderabad, told me how she discovered her venue was just 5 km from her house. She did a mock trial route 2 days before the exam to avoid last-minute rush. On exam day, she reached the center 45 minutes early, fresh and stress-free. That’s how you ace competitive exams—not just by studying, but by preparing smartly.
SSC CHTE 2024 Tier-II: What to Expect in the Paper ✍️
Okay, now that you know your city, let’s shift focus to the exam pattern a bit. Tier-II of SSC CHTE is a mix of objective and descriptive sections, and here’s how it’s structured:
Section
Type
Duration
Marks
Description
Paper-I
Objective
2 hours
200
MCQs based on technical subjects
Paper-II
Descriptive
1 hour
100
Essay or Report Writing
Negative Marking

0.25 per wrong answer
Applies in Paper-I
This time, the descriptive paper has a slightly higher weightage. So, candidates need to prepare accordingly. If you’ve cleared Tier-I, that already shows you’ve got the potential. Just don’t slack in the final round.
Expert Insights on Tier-II Preparation 🧠
I reached out to a few mentors and SSC experts I follow on YouTube and Telegram, and they had some helpful advice:
Ramesh Sir from EduCrack Academy said: “A lot of students underestimate the descriptive part. Practice at least 5 essays before the exam. Use simple, clear English. Don’t overcomplicate.”
Neha Ma’am, a previous SSC topper, recommends: “Revise core technical concepts but also keep practicing time management. Solving mock tests under a timer can help you feel confident.”
And this one really stood out—Anuj Bhardwaj, an SSC CHTE examiner, once said in a webinar: “Presentation matters in descriptive papers. Leave margins, write clearly, and don’t overwrite. Clarity can be the key to scoring well.”
