📝 Selection Process & Exam Pattern Breakdown
UPSC ESE ek three‑stage selection process follow karta hai:
- Stage‑1: Preliminary Examination – Objective type (multiple choice) paper, 200 marks, 2 hours. Topics: General Studies & Engineering Aptitude + Discipline‑specific paper.
- Stage‑2: Main Examination – Written test, 3 papers (Paper‑I: General Studies & Engineering Aptitude – 100 marks, Paper‑II: Discipline‑specific – 300 marks, Paper‑III: Discipline‑specific – 300 marks). Total 700 marks, 3 hours each.
- Stage‑3: Personality Test (Interview) – 150 marks, 30 minutes per candidate.
Overall merit is calculated on the basis of Main Examination (700 marks) + Interview (150 marks) = 850 marks. Preliminary exam sirf qualifying ke liye hota hai, iska score final merit mein nahi aata.
