Hi Friends
Here is official FINAL answer key from MPSC: Click HERE
This is OLD answer key: Click HERE.
Here is something you should understand.
Total number of aspirants may have:
- applied for the Prelims – 2 Lakh 30 Thousand due to the Objective exam pattern for Mains.
- appeared in the Prelims – 1 lakh to 1 lakh 25 thousand max
Cut – off depends on the vacancies (category wise), aspirants appeared and the marks obtained by them in Prelims. Out of this data, only vacancies are known to us. Remaining data in known only to MPSC. So its very difficult to calculate exact cut-offs in the absence of this data.
I have taken care to calculate the expected cut offs based on feedback from aspirants and my understanding. This is NOT official cut-off list. MPSC will release it at appropriate time.
The cut-offs may vary by 10 marks. For example, it may go down by 10 marks or up by 10 marks.
My advice to each and every aspirant is that (s)he should start preparation for Mains. Your hard work will not go in vain even if you fail to clear Prelims this year. Your preparation will be helpful for 2013. Our PGP strategy is this “Complete Main’s preparation even before the Prelims!!!”
But remember: – You MUST prepare from 30 to 40 books for Mains. Extensive reading and the preparation of Notes and lastly revision followed by Mock Tests. Join our PGP, its excellent and follows this strategy.

Dear Sir
I am following your blog from the day I started apperaing for the Rajyaseva.And it is only source for authentic information for students like us.Sir rajyaseva mains is clashing with my university examination?what can be solution for it?
@Abhijit, you could have given the exact dates of both exams.
for rajyaseva mains it is on 1-3 sept and university is on 1-6 sept
@Abhijit, keep preparing for both exams. If something goes good in your favour and Rajyaseva Mains get postponed then you will be lucky. You can sacrifice Rajyaseva 2012 but you can’t afford university exam being sacrificed for Rajyaseva. Focus on TODAY and pray for the miracle. There is NO other way out.
hello sir, this is the 1st time i am posting my query here….i am in NT-D category and my state services pre score is 85…..is there a chance for mains call ?…
@Pankaj, 50-50 chances as your score is on borderline.
thank you sir…..
dear sir..
i have scored 91 in rajyaseva pre and belong to dta category ..what are the chances that i will be through…shall i go ahead with preparations for mains??
@Dr. Haridas, yes, go for it.
Hi Sir, I dont want to irritate you by asking same qeustions. I have different problems. I had given 3 exams in a row. UPSC,MPSC and STI. And I am gonna clear all of them. My marks are: MPSC- 122, STI-230, UPSC- 210-230 (hopefully clear). I am rather confused what should I do? Should I prepare for all of them? Is it possible? iIs it possible to prepare for MPSC in next two months. I am an MBA (Pune). In search of job (family conditions). My friends are forcing me not to try any job and prepare for mains. what shouls I do? Is there any postal or online course as I can not attend any class personally? I hope you will reply to my query as I was unanswered before many times. Thanks in advance. I appreciate you work here (irrespective of the fact whether my qeustions will be answered or not).
@Taru, its true that you are going to clear these exams. I would suggest you to prepare for main exams. Wait for few months and soon after Mains are over, go for a job. Devote your entire day to the preparation. For MPSC Rajyaseva, you may join our PGP that can be completed from your home itself. Here are details:
https://anilmd.wordpress.com/courses/pgps/mpsc-rajyaseva-web-pgp/
We will provide you everything at your doorstep.
I am thankful to your reply and spending your precious time for my qeustions.
sir there is strong news that ratio of intake for mains in rajyaseva will b increased.1:18.do u hav any sort of news like this.if it increases will the cut off further go down??pls reply sir .thank u.
@Vishal, I never believe in hearsay. Be prepared for the worst but do your hard work in time and expect the best for you as you deserve it (if you work hard in the right direction). DO NOT spend precious time in worrying about the cut offs. Why don’t you people stop wasting your as well as my precious time in asking such questions? Concentrate on your preparation man, don’t forget to put in your best in this process.
Namaskar Sir,

Sir, i got 102 score in ss exam 2012. Im from open category with physically handicapped person. What are my chances for main exam. Pls reply sir.
@Vikas, yes, you have good score for PH category, so start preparing for Mains.
respected sir ,
first and foremost thank you so much for the anlysis and your guidance ,especially to newcomers like me.
In the state services preliminary 2012, I have a score of about 121 (though i think atleast 3-4 economy answers in key are wrong ,for example the answer for ways to control inflation should be all above in my humble opinion ) and i fall under NT – D…do i have a fair chance sir ?…my other question to you sir is being an englsih medium student i am worried about marathi paper in mains…will it really be of 10th level in your opinion as i highly doubt it being so easy considering the number of marathi standard students and the level of difficulty of prelims this year ….what do you think sir ?..thank you…
@Abhijeet, Marathi will be of 12th Std. You have a chance for Mains. You must be ready for very complex questions at Mains.
sir i would be really obliged if you could suggest me the sources to prepare marathi paper…are our hsc marathi books required ?…thank you….
@Abhijeet, you should respect my hard work in providing about 18 hours (everyday) online FREE guidance to you all and buy the eProspectus. The list of books is already compiled and made available in our eProspectus: https://anilmd.wordpress.com/other/eprospectus/
Sir, you have done a superb work. Many thanks to you for this efforts. By the way, sir i belongs to OBC and this was my first attempt to MPSC. I have scored 166 in STI prelim and 90 in SS prelim… whats your opinion for me… and sir, I have also applied for Combined Graduate Level Exam – 2012 by Staff selection commission. Plz, guide me for it… thanks….
@Harshal, your score for STI is somewhat low and for SS you have borderline score. Be prepared for SS Mains. We do not monitor SSC exams.
many many thanks sir for replying me…I like your approach to answer each and every question… Hats off to you sir, I really appreciate your work. By the way Sir, Last year paper was easy as compare to this year.. . But cut off for OBC was very low. i.e. 137 and vacancies were 280 in total.. But now, vacancies are near about 340-350. And the paper was quite difficult.. So…?
@Harshal, due to change in exam pattern (Mains), more people got attracted to it and since there are more candidates this year, there would be more people qualifying for the Mains; hence the cut-offs.
thanks sir…
sir when vl psi pre results vl be declared?? and sir my state service pre marks is 124 after negative marking…. so do i have any chances for mains…? i fall in obc.
@Swapneal, yes, you have excellent score for SS. Prepare for Mains. Put in your best efforts and don’t keep worrying about results, they will come as per their schedule.
namaste sir. My score is 112(open). Will it be enough?
@Pradip, yes, it is good score.
sir next year mpsc rajyaseva exam feb madhy asel or june madhey……………
@Hari, it will be in Jun itself. Haven’t you read the complete schedule of MPSC for 2012 on their website? It will be same for 2013, too.
sir ji, maine suna hai UPSC walon ko MPSC PRe ka paper easy gaya hai. to kya sab seatein wahi bhar denge kya? humara kya hoga sir ji? aur cutoff 115 hoga aisa pune me bol rahe hai. sir ji, plz clarify on this. many people like me are under tension. when will b the )pre) result announced?
@Kirpalji, asal mein baat yeh hai ki jinhone UPSC ki taiyari ki unhone extenisve study ki thi UPSC ke hisab se to natural hai ki unka performance achha hi hoga. Maine 100-110 ka andaja lagaya hai (+10 ya -10 bhi ho sakta hai) to main sahi hoon na! MPSC ki taiyari karnewalon ko main kabse samjha raha hoon ki aap logo ko kamse kam 50 -60 kitabe (basic aur advanced) padhane chahiye magar woh log amajhe hi nahi magar ab Prelims ke baad sab log samajh gaye hain. Aap abhi tension mat lo aur Mains i taiyari mein lag jaao. Pre ka result aane me der hai aap time waste na karo.
My score is 85 can i pass prelim 2012 in sport categary in OBC
Sir please answer my question. i am very much tens
@Jyoti, I have not calculated sports category. Please do not worry about cut-off, start preparation for Mains, it will not go in vain even if you do not clear this time. If you clear Prelims this year then you will be ready for Mains.
Sir,
My score for state service pre exam 2012 is 102,
My category is OBC,
There are any chances for me to pass for mains?
@Pavan, you are on borderline but u can expect a chance for Mains.
sir i dont want to ask any question…i jst want to appreciate ur work. The way u r handling queries is really nice. i m asst professor and know how it feels when ppl ask u same questions again and again . tumhi kharach khup chhan kam karat aahat. Dhanyawad.
@Prof. Vaibhav, ahh, it feels very good when someone like you appreciates this. Thank you so much. In fact, such appreciation keeps me going. Yes, it is really cumbersome to write same answer again and again. People should read the already posted comments and then conclude what is suitable for them instead of asking same question to me. But anyways, as long as my patience holds me, I will keep guiding people. Thank you very much again for such wonderful support.

@Kanchan, we have eProspectus for every exam so you should buy the specific one:https://anilmd.wordpress.com/other/eprospectus/

Dear Sir,
Good Morning!
I have a doubt regarding the cut-off. You have given separate cut-off for open and other categories. But for last state services prelim the cut-off for all categories and open was the same one (137).
Do you expect different cut-off for open and categories this time. If so why? And why last year cut-off was same ?
Thanks!
Regards,
Hrishikesh.
@Hrishikesh, this is unimportant question. Instead of worrying about it, you should concentrate on your preparation for Mains with the seriousness I have outlined in the article”SO you think you cna clear Prelims”.
sir, asst sathi mulakhat asate ka?
@Shankar, yes, asate.
sir Asst la mulakhat kadhi pasun suru zali????
@Pritam, dont waste your time in unwanted issues. You have Interview for Asst exam 2012 so prepare for it and face it. Later on don’t blame me. I do provide accurate information. If u want to clarify, go to MPSC website and read the new syllabus PDF document.
@Chetan, do not misguide. There is an Interview of 50 marks for Asst.
Respected sir, I belong to open category. According to authorised mpsc rajyaseva answer key i score 106 then how much possible there for selection of mains examination.. kindly reply me so that i will continue my mains study firmly.
@Dr. Gomtesh, you have good score. Do not worry about cut-off, just concentrate on Mains preparation because time is very less for preparation and you should prepare from at least 30 books for Mains. Read extensively. Pl read this:https://anilmd.wordpress.com/2012/06/14/so-you-think-you-can-clear-prelims/
Sir,
I am candidate from OBC category and calculated my Rajyaseva Prelims score 80.5. Are there any chances of getting call for mains?

Sir,
Please provide me the Rajyaseva mains syllabus.
Thanks and Regards
@Sandip, please explore the MPSC Rajyaseva menu, I have already made it available for you people.
My score is 99.50.I am open candidate.If open cutt off comes 100 then there my score will be round of or i loos because of 050 mark.please reply..I am very tense.

Hello Sir,

If so what should be the approach for studing fr both exams simultaniously as this is my first prelim. what type of courses does academy offers so as to cover syllabus for both exams.
Thank You
@Jitendra, you need to join our PGP for the exam you wish to appear for.
good morning sir,mala negative marks badal margdarshion karal.negative marks aaplyala jitke marks miltil tyatun hotil ka?thanks.
@Dr. Meghavi, yes, 1 mark for every 4 wrong answers are deducted from your score.
Respected Sir, I have scored 127 according to MPSC key in prelim 2012 also i had given UPSC prelim 2012 and expecting results. I want to know , is it possible to prepare for both UPSC mains and MPSC mains examination simultaneously ?
sir i studied only 10 days for the mpsc rajyaseva after my engg exams..n i got 76 mks sir i belong to nt-c category..this year i just wanted 2 cross d last time cut off…but d paper ws set like the people who studied for 1 year got less mks. my 10 days study is nothing infront of them..sir kahich chance nahi aahe ka maza pre clear honyacha…
@Vidya, frankly speaking, you can expect a miracle this time. You should be prepared for the worst or the good result. Start preparing for Mains, it will NEVER go in vain. This is our strategy at AD’s IAS Academy that “one must complete entire syllabus of Mains and Prelims….even before the Prelims exam!!!”
Thanx sir….
thank you very much sir
my score is 82 so i think this is nt enough foe SS 2012 waht is advice sir plz reply
@Shoeb, this is not OFFICIAL cut off. Advice is given on this page, read it.
hello Sir,
I would like to know that since there are some mistakes in the answer key how can one make a complaint to mpsc in this regard. I searched it everywhere and couldn’t get it. So finally i thought you might be able to help me in this regard. Thank you.
@SRK, you have to send a written request to MPSC before 20th Jun 2012. Details are in the answer key PDF.
sir, I have a doubt. If i cleared prelims through category quota, can I get DC post from open category (provided I cleared mains from open category) ?
@Mayur, once you claim category quota ta Prelims, you can’t change it at Mains.
