The Educational Testing and Evaluation Agency (ETEA) is Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s official testing body. It conducts recruitment screening tests for KP government departments — most prominently KP Police constables and junior posts — as well as entrance tests for medical and engineering admissions in the province.
This guide covers the recruitment-test side of ETEA: a subject-wise syllabus with weightage, the paper pattern, common posts, and a preparation plan. For admission tests (medical/engineering), the subject depth differs, but the MCQ discipline you build here transfers directly. Every subject links to free MCQs and past papers on PrepPro Academy.
