UPSC Cutoff


UPSC Cut off

Let’s go through some of the important points based on how the Cut off for the UPSC is calculated: 

  1. The marks of Prelims Cut off are based on paper 1 of the prelims or the GS paper only. The marks that you secure in Paper 2 will not be considered when counting your merit ranking. Paper 2 is qualifying in nature and you need to score at least 33 % in it to qualify for the Mains round.
  2. The cut off marks for the UPSC basically are the marks secured that the last candidate that was selected for that round. The cut off marks for both the UPSC rounds of Prelims and Mains are released only after the final IAS results of the exams for the year are declared.
  3. Given below are a few cases that the UPSC has offered clarifications on: 
    • Case 1 – If 2 aspirants score equal aggregate marks in the UPSC exam, then the aspirant who has secured more marks in the compulsory papers + the IAS Interview, is given a higher rank by the UPSC.  
    • Case 2 – If 2 candidates score equal marks in the compulsory papers and the interviews taken together, the candidate who is senior in age will be given a higher rank. 
    • Case 3 – If 2 candidates score equal marks in the compulsory papers and the interviews taken together, and are also of the same age, then the candidate with more marks in the compulsory papers will be given a higher rank. 

Now let us go through the UPSC cut off marks of the various UPSC rounds of the last 2 years:

Which books are the best for UPSC Exam aspirants?

 The ideal approach to start your UPSC preparation, according to myself and other prior IAS test toppers, is to study through the NCERT books for UPSC and then move on to the normal UPSC book list (consisting of the standard books). You should also be careful about the IAS books you chose for your preparation, as the UPSC prelims and mains are significantly distinct from one another, necessitating two separate sets of reading material for each. The UPSC Prelims, as a wholly objective sort of paper, would require its own set of book lists, while the UPSC Mains, as a completely subjective paper, would require its own. Anyway, in this section of the site, I’ve listed the titles of all the key books for the UPSC CSEs, organised by phases and subjects. One thing to keep in mind is that any decent booklist should always be extensive enough to cover the complete exam course. Best NCERT Books for UPSC Listed below are the best NCERT books for UPSC according to the various subjects of ...

UPSC Syllabus 2021

  UPSC Prelims Syllabus Starting off with the UPSC Prelims syllabus, it shouldn’t come as a surprise to you if I say that the syllabus is pretty vast in its own right. However, the  UPSC Prelims examination  is basically conducted for the purpose of  screening only.  Thus if you clear the Prelims exam, you will be eligible for the Mains exam. Also, your Prelims marks will not be considered in your final order of merit, provided you manage to make it through to the interview round. The UPSC prelims examination comprises  2 papers , namely the  General studies  paper and the  CSAT  paper or the Civil Services Aptitude Test. We will start with the syllabus for Paper 1 i.e., General Studies (GS) paper. Prelims Syllabus Highlights UPSC Prelims Syllabus for Paper 1: General Studies (GS) This GS paper or paper 1 is designed to test your overall knowledge about your surroundings and the world,...

What is IAS exam pattern?

As I have mentioned before, to ace in any field, may it be at sports or at academics, you’d need to analyse and know the playing ground like the back of your hand. As a sportsman and a successful academician, I can vouch for the importance of knowing your playing field and the rules of the game wholeheartedly.  Basically, to ace the UPSC exams also, knowing the UPSC exam pattern is of utmost importance. Everything that you’ll ever learn and prepare for during your  IAS preparations  will have to ultimately be calibrated to the IAS exam pattern. That’s how important the topic of the UPSC exam pattern is.   So, to get to the real thing the UPSC exam is comprised of  3 stages . The  first stage as per the examination pattern is the Prelims round , which is essentially an elimination round designed to filter out a majority of unsuitable candidates.    Then comes the  second phase a...
