UPSC EPFO Cut Off Marks

For the interview round of the UPSC EPFO EO/AO and APFC posts, there is no cut-off. However, there’s a minimum score that every candidate needs to achieve to clear the interview round, irrespective of the difficulty level of the exam or the number of candidates.

UPSC considers the following factors when deciding the cut-off for the EPFO EO/AO and APFC exams:

• Number of vacancies: The fewer the vacancies, the higher the cut-off, and vice versa.
• Difficulty Level of Exam: A more challenging exam might result in a lower cutoff, and vice versa.

Number of Candidates Appearing in the Exam: <span style=”font-weight: 400;”>If there are too many candidates competing for fewer vacancies, the cut-off will soar.</span>

Usually, the Weightage of the recruitment test and the interview in the final result is 75:25. While the cut-off for EPFO EO/AO and APFC for 2024 is not officially out, it’s likely the weightage will remain the same for this year as well.

While the actual difficulty level may vary, generally speaking, the UPSC EPFO EO/AO and APFC exams are moderate to difficult. However, after analyzing the previous years’ cut-offs, we can say that the difficulty levels will continue to increase.

UPSC releases the cut-offs after the final result has been declared. You can stay tuned with our website or check UPSC’s website for the latest updates regarding the cut-off.
