The marks obtained in your school or college board exams (e.g., 10th and 12th grades) are not directly considered in the UPSC Civil Services Examination (CSE) selection process. UPSC evaluates candidates based on their performance in the Preliminary Examination, Main Examination, and Interview. However, candidates are required to meet certain eligibility criteria set by the UPSC, which includes possessing a bachelor's degree from a recognized university or institution. The board exam marks are relevant only insofar as they contribute to your overall educational qualifications. In the UPSC exam, what matters most is your performance in the Preliminary Examination (Objective Type), the Main Examination (Descriptive Type), and the Interview (Personality Test). These stages assess your knowledge, understanding, analytical skills, and suitability for a career in the civil services. So, while board exam marks are not directly considered, your performance in the UPSC exam is crucial for selection. read less
