APPSC Group-2 Prelims 2024 Expected Cutoff Marks:

Many candidates after completing the prelims exam felt that the exam was tough. Though the questions were equally divided as per the syllabus mentioned, the difficulty level seems to be high. Many experts opine that the cut-off marks would be less as the question paper was difficult. Cut-off score in APPSC Group-2 Prelims 2024 could be 40-45 as per some experts.

However, a few experts also feel that the cutoff could be even less around 35 marks, due to negative marking and keeping the toughness of the question paper in mind. However, they said that the candidates should note that the question paper will be same for all and 10% candidates of the total will be qualified for the main exam. So, the candidates who have secured above 30 marks may start preparing for the main exam.

All the best!!
