    dear friend,


    it is a competitive exam so percentage does not matter here. you are qualified in
    Preliminary exam only on the basis of merit. if you cleared the Preliminary exam then you have to give UPSC Mains exam.

    There is no condition regarding marks percentage on Educational qualifications for UPSC competitive exams. Minimum Qualification for posts is to Pass Their Bachelor's degree from any recognized university... Selection criteria based on only Merit marks scored in preliminary exam to qualify for UPSC main exam... So, don't get tension on marks percentage of degree... Be practice for preliminary exam... ALL THE BEST

    Re: Minimum required marks to get qualified in UPSC Preliminary exam.

    the qualifying marks is the cutoff marks, which is the marks obtained by the candidate of last qualifying rank, i.e., the last candidate to be eligible to appear for the upsc mains examinations.
    a rough idea of the cutoff/qualifying marks are as mentioned below(as the cutoffs every year revolve around these basic values):
    # GEN-248
    # OBC-240
    # SC-231
    # ST-225
    hope it helps.

    Re: Minimum required marks to get qualified in UPSC Preliminary exam.

    As it can't be said with pre-determined cut-off
    but generally
    60% around of the total (0r 240-260)
    is said to be safe to get
    through the prelim's of mains.


    so try to inch towards them ,or as you have already expected that given the examination of this year, so leave all the worry. just concentrate to assume that you will be qualify ,,prepare for MAINS heartly.

    As who knows what you are getting will fall in the category of QUALIFIED candidates,then you if not prepared for the mains then you are on the loser's side definitely..that will probably will cause much havoc to you so go on hard preparation.

    Re: Minimum required marks to get qualified in UPSC Preliminary exam.

    On the basis of previous years analysis The cut-off marks is expected to be between 215-230 out of 400.
    But this may not be the actual range.
    Cut-off marks is different in every year.
    So if you are expecting below 215 please don't be upset...wait for final result to be declared
    All the best!

    dear friend

    you would be glad to know that there's no percentage or marks criteria in upsc.Doesn't matter may be you score more or less but you have to be very much serious about the upsc exam because it really matters if you score less in upsc as the competition is getting tougher and tougher

    UPSC Preliminary examination is conducted by Union Public Service Commission Once in a year . This year notification was already announced and last date for receipt of application of was already closed and the examination will be held on 20/05/12 . But the exam results was not declared yet .

    Minimum Education Qualification required for this examination , you have to holding the bachelor's degree of a recognized University or equivalent qualification and there is no restriction about the discipline any discipline candidate can apply for this examination . Percentage is no matter for this examination . pre-final year of degree may not eligible to apply for this examination .

    Only pass out candidates are eligible to apply OR appearing in the final year of degree course OR awaiting the exam results may also eligible to apply for this examination . Age should have a minimum 21 years and maximum 30 years and Upper age limits is applicable for this examination .

    Minimum 130 marks out of 200 marks in first paper and 90 marks out 200 in second paper . So you must secure at least 220 marks out 400 marks .

    More details , Visit the official website :- www.upsc.gov.in

    dear surely i cannot say anything regarding this but i think if you get 60 % marks in upsc preliminary exam then surely you will get your name in the merit list and then you can give mains exam as well.
    good luck

    generally UPSC does not declare the cutoff.
    for 2011 prelims, UPSC has declared the cutoff because of an RTI application
    for general -198
    OBC-175
    SC-165
    ST-161

    Re: Minimum required marks to get qualified in UPSC Preliminary exam.

    hi Friend,

    You do not need to worry about marks in UPSC.

    There are no fixed criteria for marks, it depends on number of Candidates.

    There is no Fix Mark for Passing UPSC Exam.

    >> Cutoff Marks are not fixed, it is based on Number of Candidates have Applied.

    >> So Don't worry about marks just Start Preparation of UPSC.

    >> first set Your goal and then Start Preparation.

    I hope you understand.

    All the Best
