The Prelims serves as a screening test for the UPSC CSE, comprising two objective-type papers:
- General Studies Paper I
- CSAT (Paper II)
Both papers carry multiple-choice questions, adding up to a total of 400 marks. The CSAT paper is qualifying, and candidates must score at least 33% in it. For General Studies Paper I, the cut-off is determined by UPSC and used to shortlist candidates for the Mains.
