State PSC Cut Off Marks (Previous Years)
State Public Service Commissions (UPPSC, BPSC, RPSC, MPPSC, etc.) conduct PCS/ state civil services exams with state-specific syllabi and cut-offs. Prelims cut-offs vary sharply by state depending on vacancies and paper level.
How to use these cut-offs
- Always check your state PSC official website — cut-offs are published state-wise, not centrally.
- Prelims GS cut-off qualifies for Mains; final merit uses Mains + Interview.
- Some states hold separate exams for lower PCS (RO/ARO) and higher PCS — cut-offs are not interchangeable.

FAQs
Is state PSC cut-off the same across all states?
No. Each state PSC sets its own cut-off based on vacancies, paper difficulty, and number of applicants. Compare only within the same state and exam cycle.
Can I use UPSC preparation for state PSC?
Partially. GS overlap helps, but state-specific GK, history, and syllabus topics are essential — state PSC is not a subset of UPSC.
