Hello there..
>> The UPSC counts the number of attempts based on the number of times you get yourself registered for a particular examination.
>> Once you get yourself registered,it has to be counted as one attempt,irrespective of the fact whether you go ahead to give the examination or not.
>> Even if you give the Prelims and fail to qualify for the Mains,it is going to be counted as one attempt.
>> Also take note that the number of attempts is restricted only in the CIVIL SERVICES examinations and the INDIAN FOREST SERVICE examinations.
>> These exams include 4 attempts for General Category,7 for OBC candidates and Unlimited for SC and ST candidates.
>> As for any other exam,you can have any number of attempt,provided you meet the eligibility criteria of it particularly.
