The number of candidates called for this stage will be ten times the number of vacancies. Ex-servicemen who are shortlisted in the Computer-Based Examination will only need to appear for the measurement of their height, chest, and weight during the PET/PST stage, as PET will not be conducted for them.

SSC GD Physical Efficiency Test (PET)
After the Computer-Based Test, the Staff Selection Commission will shortlist candidates for the Physical Efficiency Test (PET) and Physical Standard Test (PST). The PET and PST will be conducted at various centers selected by the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs). At the time of the Detailed Medical Examination (DME), a thorough scrutiny of the candidate’s eligibility and documents will be conducted.
It is, therefore, the responsibility of the candidates to ensure that they fulfill the eligibility criteria stated in the notification before appearing for the CBE/PST/PET. During the PET/PST, candidates who meet the height criteria will undergo the PET (race), followed by biometric/technology-assisted identification. The CAPFs PET/PST Boards will scrutinize the eligibility of candidates for any relaxation in age, height, and chest measurements after qualifying in the PET (race).
