Assuming you acquire a genuine PDF, here is the exact syllabus you can expect:

Part A: Physics

Part B: Chemistry

Part C: Biology

Part D: General Science Practice Sets

The hallmark of this book is the integration of PYQs from SSC, Railway, and other exams at the end of every chapter.

This is the ethical gray area. Arihant Publications is a private publisher. Downloading a pirated PDF from a random Google Drive link constitutes copyright infringement.

However, the educational landscape is changing. Sometimes, teachers or institutes buy bulk licenses and share PDFs for restricted classroom use. If you are looking for a "Google Drive link," you are likely entering piracy territory.

The Safer Alternative: Before hunting for illegal links, note that Arihant often provides sample chapters or digital previews on their official portal (Arihant360). Additionally, platforms like Telegram have channels where educators legally share free resources; but always verify if the uploader owns distribution rights.

If you are concerned about piracy (and you should be, as it hurts authors and publishers), here are legitimate ways to access the same content:

Remember: Sharing the full PDF on public Google Drive or social media without permission is a violation of the Copyright Act of 1957 (India) and can result in legal notices.


Unlike school textbooks, Arihant General Science focuses on multiple-choice questions (MCQs) and facts that have appeared in previous exams. It highlights key points with bullet lists, tables, and boxes labeled "Important for Exams."

This happens when too many people have downloaded/viewed a shared file. Solution:


The book is strictly based on the NCERT Science textbooks (Class 6 to Class 12). Since most government exams derive their science syllabus from NCERTs, this book cuts through the clutter.
