candidates for Main Examination.

Main Exam – Civil Services (Main) Examination (Written and Interview) for the selection of candidates
for the various services and posts.

Interview or Personality Test – Civil Services Interview or Personality Test.

Stage II
The preliminary Examination will consist of two papers of Objective type (multiple choice questions) and
carry a maximum of 400 marks in the subjects set out in subsection (A) of Section II. This examination is
meant to serve as a screening test only; the marks obtained in the Preliminary Examination by the
candidates who are declared qualified for admission to the Main Examination will not be counted for
determining their final order of merit. The number of Candidates to be admitted to the Main Examination
will be about twelve to thirteen times the total an approximate number of vacancies to be filled in the
year through this examination. Only those candidates who are declared by the Commission to have
qualified in the Preliminary Examination in the year will be eligible for admission to the Main Examination
of that year provided they are otherwise eligible for admission, to the Main Examination.

Note I
The Commission will draw a list of candidates to be qualified for Civil Service (Main) Examination based
on the total qualifying marks as may be determined by the Commission, of the two papers put together.

Note II
There will be negative marking for incorrect answers (as detailed below) for all questions except some of
the questions where the negative marking will be inbuilt in the form of different marks being awarded to
the most appropriate and not so appropriate answer for such questions.

For each question for which a wrong answer has been given by the candidate, one-third (0.33) of the
marks assigned to that question will be deducted as a penalty.

If a candidate gives more than one answer, it will be treated as a wrong answer even if one of the given
answers happens to be correct and there will be the same penalty as above for that question.

If a question is left blank, i.e. no answer is given by the candidate; there will be no penalty for that
question.

Stage III
The Main Examination will consist of a written examination and an interview test. The written
examination will consist of 9 papers of conventional essay type in the subjects set out in subsection (B)
of Section II out of which two papers will be of qualifying in nature. Also, see Note (ii) under Para I of
Section II (B). Marks obtained for all the compulsory papers (Paper–I to Paper-VII) and Marks obtained
in the Interview for Personality Test will be counted for ranking.

Stage IV
Candidates who obtain such minimum qualifying marks in the written part of the Main Examination as
may be fixed by the Commission at their discretion, shall be summoned by them for an interview for a
Personality Test, vide sub-section ‘C’ of Section II. The number of candidates to be summoned for
interviews will be about twice the number of vacancies to be filled. The interview will carry 275 marks
(with no minimum qualifying marks).
Marks thus obtained by the candidates in the Main Examination (written part as well as interview) would
determine their final ranking. Candidates will be allotted to the various services keeping in view their
ranks in the Examination and the preferences expressed by them for the various services and posts.
Selection Pattern
The examination is conducted by the Union Public Service Commission. It has three stages: a
preliminary exam, the main exam, and an interview, and is known for being extremely challenging.
Recently the preliminary exam pattern has changed. There used to be 23 optional subjects along with a
general Studies paper. Now there will be no optional subject in the preliminary examination. Instead,
there will be a second paper which will be common for all candidates. It covers aptitude, general
mathematics, comprehensive English, social studies etc.
