SLET Syllabus- Mathematics & Science

There are two parts of the SLET written test, and candidates need to attempt both Paper 1 and Paper 2 to crack the exam. Paper 1 covers general subjects, while Paper 2 comprises the core subject chosen by the candidates. For the students who wish to select Mathematics and Science, we have covered all the topics and issues under Mathematics and Science in the list below.
