UPSC Exam Pattern 2021 for IAS, IPS, Civil Services Exam

CSAT COURSE

UPSC CSE Prelims consists of two papers namely General Studies I and CSAT (General Studies Paper-II). While CSAT is qualifying in nature, the marks obtained in the General Studies paper determine your selection for UPSC Mains. 33% (66 out of 200) is required for the CSAT paper to count towards the UPSC Prelims merit list. CSAT (GS Paper-II) requires only 33% marks, but the unpredictable nature of UPSC, as well as the increasing difficulty level each year, makes the test somewhat challenging.
