Will My Prelims Score Clear? UPSC Cut-off Checker

How the check works

• Your score is compared with the official prelims cut-off for your category in each of the last ten exam years, from UPSC's own notices. EWS cut-offs start with CSE 2019 and PwBD-5 with CSE 2018, so those two categories are checked against fewer years. For CSE 2016 and 2017, UPSC printed the disability cut-offs as PH-1 to PH-3, and the checker uses those for PwBD-1 to PwBD-3.
• Scoring exactly the cut-off counts as clearing it: the cut-off is the mark of the last candidate who qualified.
• Only GS Paper I counts for the cut-off. CSAT (GS Paper II) is qualifying at 33%.
