Mohammed Younus / Hyderabad : Students and educationists/trainers from Andhra Pradesh and Telangana are expecting more number of candidates to get through the Union Public Service Commission’s Mains exam, the second stage of the privileged competitive examination. The Mains examination was held on December 14 and about 16,000 candidates appeared for the across the country. Among them are 530 students from AP and Telangana.
The qualified candidates of AP and Telangana are hoping to grab a considerable number of seats in the second stage (Mains). The number of students who qualified despite the illogical CSAT pattern only shows the strength of Telugu students, said an aspirant
This year, the civil services examination is being conducted for 1,298 vacant posts and for which 4.5 lakh candidates have appeared in the first stage - preliminary examination. After the first stage examination, the competition ratio for each post is 1:12 and the same would decrease to 1:3 after Mains examination. The qualified candidates of AP and Telangana are hoping to grab a considerable number of seats in the second stage.
Ever since the notification for UPSC was released, this year, students/trainers/educationists have been registering their protest against reforms in the examination pattern and also held it responsible for the bleak performance of the students here. An aspirant M Rajendra Kumar from Nalgonda, who have successfully crossed the first barrier, is hoping to reach to the final stage. He said, “It is sad that out of 29,000 candidates who appeared from the twin Telugu States, only 530 qualified. I am confident that most of the qualified students would definitely crack the Mains examination.”
The number of students qualified despite the illogical CSAT pattern only shows the strength of Telugu students, he added. On the other hand, trainers while criticising the pattern also appreciated the hard work of the qualified students. Laxmaiah IAS academy director K Laxmaiah said that though the number of students qualified from the State was very little, it would not stop the competent students to clear the Mains examination. He said, “The diminishing graph of the students was only because of the unscientific CSAT pattern. I am expecting 20 students from my academy to clear the Mains examination.”
He said that the UPSC authorities attempted to exclude south Indian candidates by putting CSAT but in the Mains our students would perform well. Interestingly, about 143 students from the State cleared the Mains examination for which almost 1,200 had appeared in the previous year. This year the percentage of students possibly cracking the Mains could be either same or more. R C Reddy IAS academy director R C Reddy said that students from the State were performing better for last one decade when it comes to the UPSC examinations.
He said that students from other States were wary of competent and updated education system in the State. “Possibly 25 per cent students appearing from my academy could clear the second stage of the UPSC examination,” he added.
