UPPSC PCS Prelims 2024 Exam Date: The Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission (UPPSC) has announced the exam date for PCS Prelims 2024. According to the official notice, the prelims exam will take place on December 22, 2024. The examination will be conducted in two sessions: the morning session from 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM, and the afternoon session from 2:30 PM to 4:30 PM, ensuring the entire process is completed in a single day.


The Combined State/Upper Subordinate Services (Preliminary) Examination-2024 was previously scheduled for two days, December 7 and 8.






“It is hereby notified that the Combined State / Senior Subordinate Services (Pre.) Examination-2024 which was proposed to be held in two days on 07th and 08th December, instead of the said examination will now be conducted in one day on date-22.12.2024 in two sessions (First Session- from 9:30 am to 11:30 am and Second Session from 2:30 pm to 4:30 pm),” the official notice stated.
















In response to widespread protests by aspirants demanding a "one day, one exam" policy, the Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission (UPPSC) has reverted to conducting the civil services prelims exam on a single day. A shortage of sufficient examination centers for the high number of candidates prompted the earlier plan for multiple shifts, which required implementing a normalisation process for evaluation.

The UPPSC PCS prelims exam has faced multiple delays this year. Initially scheduled for March 17, it was deferred without explanation. Later, the exam was scheduled for October 27 but was postponed for administrative reasons. These postponements occurred amid concerns over paper leaks and exam cancellations in the state.


The PCS prelims consist of two objective-type papers: General Studies Paper-I and the CSAT (Civil Services Aptitude Test) Paper-II, both conducted on the same day with a combined duration of four hours.
