Candidates who clear prelims can sit for the main paper and similarly who clear the main exam can sit for interview/personality test. However, a candidate’s score in prelims will not be taken into consideration while preparing the Final Merit List.
Nearly 10.58 lakh candidates has registered for the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) civil services examination (CSE) prelims that was held today. The candidates who have appeared in the prelims rated the paper as moderate, and the paper followed the pattern of prelims of previous years.

The recruitment exams are being held at 72 centres and 2,500 sub-centres. The commission has also allowed candidates to change their exam centres, and over 60,000 candidates had availed this option.

- The difficulty level of the question paper
- The number of vacancies in the exam
- The number of applicants appeared in the exam(rarest of the rarest)
