Use this table to see where your study time should go first. **Paper II units that are usually new, by degree** | Your degree | Usually familiar | Usually new: start here | | --- | --- | --- | | Civil | Fluid mechanics, hydraulics, water and wastewater treatment, solid waste | Process calculations, thermodynamics, engineering materials, ecology | | Mechanical | Thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, engineering materials | Ecosystems, biodiversity, water and wastewater treatment, environmental law | | Chemical | Process calculations, mass and energy balances, thermodynamics | Hydraulics, solid waste collection, EIA methods, biodiversity | | Environmental | Pollution control, EIA, environmental law, ecology | Engineering materials, fluid mechanics derivations, thermodynamics | ## The APPSC Environmental Engineer test series, week by week **APPSC Assistant Environmental Engineer 2026 series: DPR Prep release dates (tests open at 6:00 a.m. IST and stay open)** | Week | Dates | Tests | | --- | --- | --- | | Week 1 | Sun 8 Nov – Sat 14 Nov | AEE-01 Indian and AP History (P-I), free; AEE-02 Ecosystems I (P-II), free; AEE-03 Indian and AP Geography (P-I); AEE-04 Ecosystems II (P-II) | | Week 2 | Mon 16 Nov – Fri 20 Nov | AEE-05 Polity and Governance (P-I); AEE-06 Natural Resources (P-II); AEE-07 Economy and Planning (P-I) | | Week 3 | Sun 22 Nov – Sat 28 Nov | AEE-08 Biodiversity and Biotic Resources (P-II); AEE-09 Environment and Sustainable Development (P-I); AEE-10 Engineering Materials (P-II); AEE-11 Disaster Management and GIS (P-I) | | Week 4 | Mon 30 Nov – Fri 4 Dec | AEE-12 Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulics (P-II); AEE-13 Reasoning and Mental Ability (P-I); AEE-14 Process Calculations and Thermodynamics (P-II) | | Week 5 | Sun 6 Dec – Sat 12 Dec | AEE-15 Data Analysis and Interpretation (P-I); AEE-16 Pollution Control I: Air (P-II); AEE-17 Pollution Control II: Water, Soil and Noise (P-II); AEE-18 Solid and Industrial Waste (P-II) | | Week 6 | Mon 14 Dec – Sat 19 Dec | AEE-19 Environmental Policy and EIA (P-II); AEE-20 Current Affairs, General Science and Technology (P-I); AEE-21 Full Paper I: Balanced GS and Mental Ability (P-I) | | Week 7 | Tue 22 Dec – Fri 25 Dec | AEE-22 Full Paper II: All Common-Subject Units (P-II); AEE-23 Full Paper I: AP-Focused Integrated GS (P-I) | | Week 8 | Mon 28 Dec – Thu 31 Dec | AEE-24 Full Paper II: Numerical and Engineering Applications (P-II); AEE-25 Full Paper I: Reasoning and Data Emphasis (P-I) | | Week 9 | Mon 4 Jan – Thu 7 Jan | AEE-26 Full Paper II: Pollution Control and Law Emphasis (P-II); AEE-27 Full Paper I: Advanced Mixed Revision (P-I) | | Week 10 | Sun 10 Jan – Thu 14 Jan | AEE-28 Full Paper II: Advanced Integrated Simulation (P-II); AEE-29 Final Readiness Paper I (P-I) | | Week 11 | Sun 17 Jan | AEE-30 Final Readiness Paper II (P-II) | The first 20 tests are sectional: each takes one area and asks 150 questions on it, so you learn where your accuracy breaks under time. AEE-21 to AEE-30 are full papers that mix every unit in the proportions of the exam. A full paper is the only honest check of whether the sectional work has stuck. ## How the papers are scored As in the notification, each paper has 150 questions in 150 minutes and carries 150 marks; one-third of a mark is deducted for each wrong answer. Three wrong answers cancel one correct answer, so blind guessing does not pay; for that reason your result page separates marks lost to wrong answers from marks left unattempted. ## Questions candidates ask ### When is the APPSC Assistant Environmental Engineer exam?
