About the AP SSC Telugu (Second Language) Exam

AP SSC Telugu (Second Language) is the Class 10 public examination Telugu paper for students taking Telugu as their second language under the Board of Secondary Education, Andhra Pradesh (BSEAP). Official model papers use paper code 09T. It is a written Telugu-language paper of about 3 hours 15 minutes for 100 marks, assessing reading comprehension, grammar and vocabulary, creative expression/writing, and basic literature linked to the SCERT Andhra Pradesh Class 10 second-language Telugu pathway. Compared with First Language Telugu (01T/02T), second-language scope is typically lighter in advanced grammar, prosody, and literary analysis. The official assessment is not a pure multiple-choice test and is conducted in Telugu. This free bank is an English-language MCQ study adaptation of second-language skills for 2026 revision — not a full simulation of handwritten Telugu writing tasks or an official translation of the exam.

Exam sponsor: Board of Secondary Education, Andhra Pradesh (BSEAP) / Directorate of Government Examinations, Andhra Pradesh. The requirements and fees below concern the certification or admission exam, separate from our free practice resources.

Assessment

Typical public-exam organisation (confirm current 09T model paper/blueprint on bse.ap.gov.in): Reading Comprehension; Grammar and Vocabulary; Creative Expression / writing (letters, essays, and related conventions), with literature-linked questions drawn from the SCERT Class 10 Telugu second-language pathway. Scope is generally lighter than First Language Telugu (01T/02T) — less emphasis on advanced prosody (chandassu), elaborate alankara analysis, and deep literary criticism. Duration about 3 hours 15 minutes; total 100 marks. This 100-question bank trains recognition of grammar, vocabulary, reading strategies, writing structure, and basic literature concepts only — it does not replace timed handwritten practice of official 09T model papers in Telugu.

Time Limit

About 3 hours 15 minutes (standard AP SSC subject written duration).

Passing Score

About 35 marks out of 100 to pass the subject under the published BSEAP language grading table (less than 35 = fail). Confirm any current BSEAP circular.

AP SSC Telugu (Second Language): Suggested Study Strategy

1Drill high-frequency second-language grammar (vibhakti endings, basic sandhi, common verb forms) until recognition is automatic — these carry steady weight in objective/short tasks.
2Practise short Telugu passages with a timer: first identify the main idea, then answer detail and inference questions with evidence from the text.
3Build a personal list of synonyms, antonyms, and common sametalu (proverbs/idioms) from the textbook and model papers.
4Memorise letter and essay structure checklists even when using English MCQs for format knowledge — then write full answers in Telugu from official 09T papers.
5After MCQ revision, write full answers from official BSEAP 09T model papers under exam timing — MCQs build recognition, not Telugu handwriting stamina.
6Do not over-study First Language–only topics (advanced chandassu, heavy alankara analysis) unless they appear in your second-language syllabus or model paper.
