For the latest Indian Coast Guard vacancy announcements and exam result updates for 2024, check the site of the official Indian Coast Guard. It keeps an updated upload on various recruitment notifications, exam dates, and results. The posts included in the Indian Coast Guard recruitment are Navik (General Duty) and Yantrik among many others in 2024. For instance, the assignments are across geographical areas like North, West, North East, and others.The entire procedure is online and applications must be filled strictly according to the scheduled dates. The use of the same website by logging into your account will provide you with your exam results which are later added post the completion of the exam.Subsequently, there will be a written exam followed by physical fitness tests and medical tests, and selected ones will enter into training.

The Indian Coast Guard arranges the marks of the candidates in the case if the candidates attempted the CGCAT examination in different shifts to attain a rational approach to the marks. Nevertheless, the normalization process is made using a statistical method before the results could be out. The formula for calculating the normalized marks is:Mij: The normalized marks of the jth candidate for ith shift Mtg: Average mark of the top one percentiles of candidates of each shift Mqgm: The total of mean marks in the shift with the highest mean and standard deviation of marks among all the shifts Mti: It means the mean of marks of the 0.1% the highest scorer in the ith shift Miq: Mean marks + Standard Deviation where I represents a shift. The CGCAT is an examination with 100 multiple choices questions in a two hours span. To contains the various topics in the syllabus there are Five sections includes General Awareness, English, Numerical Ability, Reasoning, and Military Aptitude. 

Follow the steps to prepare for the Navik Coast Guard Exam:Have a look at the Syllabus: Go through the syllabi of the exam which generally includes General Knowledge, Maths Science, and English.The degree of difficulty is the same for Navik coaching or Coast Guard during NDA exam preparation, Get a Coach: Look out at the training centre where nothing but only Coast Guard/Navik exams are coached. Structured classes, Study material etc.This could be in the form of online courses, or study apps that include mock tests and practice papers.Self-Study: Textbooks recommended + previous year's question papers to practice.Practice: Practice is the only key that will increase your chances of being successful.Visit the official U.S. Coast Guard recruiting website for any testing requirements or updates

The medical examination of Indian Coast Guard Yantrik is conducted by the authorised Military Doctors as per medical standard prescribed under current regulations applicable to the EP of Indian Coast Guard on entry. Physical traits include minimum height of 157 cm with proportionate body weight, depending on the age and height of the candidate. Candidate should possess good mental and physical health, should be free from any disease/ disability and have no cardio-vascular disease, surgical deformities like Knock-Knees, Flat-Foot. Candidate should not have a past history of fits or psychiatric ailments, Varicose-veins etc. He should not have any type of infection in the ears. Candidates are advised to get their ears cleaned for wax and tartar removed from teeth before appearing for the written test, which is followed by PFT and Medical examination. Candidate should possess Colour perception standard of CP II and Eyes Visual standards should meet the under mentioned prescribed standards for both the conditions that is with glasses and without glasses. Visual StandardType of EntryWithout GlassesWith GlassesYantrikBetter eyeWorse eyeBetter eyeWorse eye6/246/246/96/12
