GTCL Previous Question Solution: MCQ & Written
2016 assistant manager (general) question
Answer the Questions Before Reading the Solutions
This eight-page GTCL question set brings the MCQ and descriptive sections of an earlier recruitment test into one place. The printed solutions make it useful for checking mistakes, but the questions are most valuable when they are attempted first under a time limit.
The scans identify the employer as Gas Transmission Company Limited (GTCL) and the post as Assistant Manager (General). They also show a full mark of 100: 75 marks for the multiple-choice section and 25 marks for the descriptive section. This question set is from 2016, so its format should be treated as a record of that examination—not as a promise about any later GTCL recruitment test.
What Is Inside This GTCL Question Set?
| Item | Printed information | Available here |
|---|---|---|
| Post | Assistant Manager (General) | 2016 question set |
| MCQ section | 60 questions, 75 marks | Seven scan pages with answers and explanations |
| Descriptive section | 25 marks | One scan page with worked answers |
| Total | 100 marks | Eight readable solution pages |
The MCQ pages move through English, mathematics, Bangla and general knowledge. The descriptive page includes an English-to-Bangla translation and two mathematical problem-solving questions. Because each MCQ carried 1.25 marks in this examination, the 60 questions made up the printed 75-mark objective section.
GTCL MCQ Question Solution: Seven Scanned Pages
Cover the printed answer while attempting each item. Once a page is complete, compare the option you selected with the answer and short explanation beside the question. Some general-knowledge answers are tied to 2016, so revise those topics from current, reliable sources rather than memorising an old fact as if it were still current.
The 25-Mark Descriptive Section
The last page is not another MCQ sheet. It shows a five-mark English-to-Bangla translation followed by two mathematical problems worth ten marks each. The sample workings are useful for checking method and presentation. For practice, write the translation in complete Bangla sentences and show every mathematical step before comparing your work with the printed solution.
A Three-Pass Routine for This Question Set
- First pass—answer only: work from question 1 to 60 without reading the printed explanations. Mark uncertain items with a small symbol and keep moving.
- Second pass—classify mistakes: separate English grammar errors, slow calculations, Bangla gaps and outdated general knowledge. This produces a useful revision list instead of one undifferentiated score.
- Third pass—write the descriptive answers: complete the translation and both mathematics problems in a notebook. Compare not only the final answer but also the sequence of steps.
Attempt the questions again after several days, changing the order of the subject blocks if possible. A better second score is meaningful only when you can explain why an option is correct or reproduce the calculation without looking at the solution.
What these questions cannot confirm
It cannot establish the syllabus, time, negative-marking rule, test venue, examiner or selection process for a future GTCL vacancy. Those details may differ by post and recruitment year. It also does not replace a current circular or admit-card instruction.
Check Current GTCL Recruitment Information Separately
For an active recruitment, use the official GTCL website and its notice section. Match the post name and recruitment reference before following any application or examination instruction. The official notice for the recruitment you are applying to should always override an earlier question set.
The site also has a separate reference page for the GTCL job circular published in 2018. That page records a different recruitment notice; this page is specifically about the 2016 Assistant Manager (General) question solution.
Answers to Practical Questions
Does this set include both MCQ and written questions?
Yes. Seven scans cover the 60-question MCQ section, and the eighth covers the descriptive translation and mathematics section.
Is the 75-plus-25 marks pattern current?
It is confirmed by the printed 2016 questions shown here. It should not be carried over to another year or post unless the relevant GTCL notice confirms the same distribution.
How should older general-knowledge answers be handled?
Use them to understand the style of the earlier questions, then update date-sensitive facts from authoritative current sources. Language rules and mathematical methods may remain useful, but current-affairs answers naturally age.
