  • UPSC prelims 2023 cut off may dip as CAT refuses stay on results

    UPSC prelims 2023 cut off may dip as CAT refuses stay on results

    The UPSC prelims 2023 cut off is likely to dip as the CAT (Central Administrative Tribunal) has refused to stay the results and decided to hear a plea regarding a reduction in the CSAT (Civil Services Aptitude Test) cut off on July 6.

    Earlier, the UPSC prelims candidates filed the plea contending that the CSAT questions were excessively challenging and not aligned with the provided syllabus. They argue that the current cut off of 33 percent for CSAT is discriminatory, particularly for candidates from rural backgrounds and those with arts backgrounds. In light of this, they have requested a reduction in the CSAT cut off to 23 percent or a re-examination for CSAT as part of the Civil Services Preliminary Examination 2023.

    Why UPSC prelims 2023 cut off likely to dip?
    As the number of candidates to be admitted to the Civil Services (Main) Examination remains fixed, the lower number of aspirants clearing CSAT is likely to result in a dip in the cut off for UPSC Prelims 2023 GS paper.

    As CAT refused to stay the UPSC prelims 2023 results and the difficulty level of the 2023 CSAT paper will lead to a significant reduction in the number of candidates meeting the 33 percent target, the overall UPSC Prelims 2023 cut off is likely to go down.
