“Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible.” – Tony Robbins
It’s an essential part of a successful strategy for any task and if the challenge is a competitive exam like APSC Combined Competitive Exam, then knowing the passing parameters i.e. Cutoff Marks for APSC Prelims & Mains Exam is a very basic enquiry. Here we discuss about the Cutoff Marks i.e. the minimum score needed to clear the APSC CC Prelims Exam 2020 and qualify for appearing for APSC CC Mains Exam 2020.
These marks are of GS-1 paper of 200 marks only, as GS-2 paper is of qualifying nature. Based on the nature of questions in the GS Paper and the valuable views expressed by numerous candidates, most of the peoples are expecting lower Cut-off marks than the previous year i.e. 2018, mainly due to introduction of GS-2 paper (of qualifying nature) and negative marking.
The category-wise Cut-off for 2020 (expected)
Category

General (Open)
110 +- 5
Other Backward Classes (OBC)/MOBC
102 +- 5
Scheduled Class (SC)
95 +- 5
Scheduled Tribe (Plains)
93 +- 5
Scheduled Tribe (Hills)
87 +- 7
Significant factors that can influence the Cut-off of the APSC CC (Prelim) 2020 Exams:
Introduction of Negative marking for incorrect answers (No more thukka, so serious aspirants will not try to attempt all Qs and will attempt only Qs which they are sure of)
Introduction of GS II Paper which is of qualifying nature (Many aspirants will score good in GS I Paper but will not be able to qualify GS II Paper, thus will reduce cutoff marks further).
Total No. of vacancies in 2020 are 70 (26%) more than 2018’s vacancies. (so rationally it should reduce the cutoff)
In 2018, vacancies in OC category were 141, whereas, in 2020, only 121 vacancies [20 less]
In 2018, vacancies in OBC/MOBC category were 62, whereas, in 2020, 92 vacancies [30 more]
In 2018, vacancies in SC category: 21 but in 2020, 20 vacancies.[almost same]
In 2018, vacancies in STP category: 23 but in 2020, 38 vacancies.[15 more]
In 2018, vacancies in STH category: 14 but in 2020, 17 vacancies.[3 more]
Nature of GK GS paper.
Covid situation and inordinate delay in Prelim Exam, which effect serious aspirants very badly.
