Bihar Staff Selection Commission conducted first graduate level mains examination (Sachiwalaya Sahayak Examination) on 27 January, 2013. Mains examination question paper and Answer key have been provided on Commission's website. Any error in question paper or in answer can be informed to BSSC till 31 January, 2013. After then no complain will be entertained. It shows that BSSC is serious in declaring the result as soon as possible. It can be expected before 20 February, 2013. 
    As far standard of questions are concerned, it was a mix bag. It was not on the pattern of preliminary examination. All sections were mixed. There were very few questions from math. Except 5 to 6 questions of word formation , all reasoning questions were not so tough.   GK questions were not so lengthy as it was in the mains. In the Reasoning section unlike PT. examination, not too many questions were asked from arithmetic. It means GS and Science questions are going to decide the final merit. One can say that it was little easy. 
        Keeping all these factors in mind one can expect a cut off marks based on one's performance. Since the General Hindi paper was qualifying in nature, hence its marks will not be added in the merit list preparation. So merit list will be prepared on the marks scored in Second sitting's paper only. In the preliminary examination cut off for general candidate's was 342 (on the basis of first result). In the mains examination cut off will be certainly go higher. How much, it is very tough to say. But one can guess and say that it will be around 390-400 marks for general category. It may be wrong, but is only speculation. Now it is up to you, to debate on the cut off. However BSSC is not going to give you enough time in debating the result, because final result can be expected anytime after 15 February. Total number of seats are 3285.

CLICK HERE FOR 284 RDO POSTS ADDED IN BPSC
Now there is no objection before BPSC in declaring the result of 53-55th combined competitive mains examination. A writ was pending in the bench of Honorable Chief Justice of Patna High Court against the combined examination held by BPSC. A bunch of petitioners had filed writ against holding the combined examination. According to the petitioners, BPSC can't hold two or three examination in one go. It was illegal. But Honorable Chief Justice Rekha M. Doshit and Ahsanuddin Ammanullah rejected their petitions on 15 Januray, 2013.. It means BPSC can now declare the result of 53-55th mains examination. Similarly it can now advertise the vacancies for next combined examination.

BPSC 53-55TH EXAMINATION: 284 RDO POSTS ADDED



Bihar Government Rural Development Department, via Personnel Department, has sent requisition for 284 more posts of RDO to BPSC. The said department had already sent 250 seats earlier. Since total cadre strength of Rural Development Officer (RDO) is 534. It was decided that all the posts should be filled on one go. Hence, rest 284 posts will also be filled through 53-55th examination. Apart from 284 posts of RDO, requisition for more than 30 posts of Minority Welfare Officer have also been sent to BPSC. These posts will be filled through the said examination. According to the sources, total seats, to be filled by 53-55th mains examination, have increased to 1063. Chances of adding more posts can not be ruled out. Even in 48-52nd examination, requisition for District Education Officer posts were sent after mains examination. It means, one can expect about 1100 posts in the said examination. It also means that about 3000 students will be called for interview. More seats and more students mean lower cut off. One more thing, unlike 48-52 examination, no boom factor is going to play any role this year. Keeping all these factors in mind, Cut off for general category is not going to exceed 690. However, as far as BPSC examination is concerned, using 'certainty' word is little risky. Hence 'disclaimer me', is added here.  Result might be declared latest by the second week of February. In fact, simultaneously with tabulation, preparation of interview panel lists has been started in BPSC office. So I pray success for all my friends who are attached with this blog. Once again best of luck to all of you. 
FOR INTERVIEW: This blog has already a tab related to Interview. In that section some questions have already been mentioned, which have been asked in different boards. Since I am working in a leading Civil Services career magazine, I have great resources of current affairs questions. Wait for few more days, I am in the process of putting some questions in that section.

1. Cancellation of result of Graduate Level Preliminary Test Examination, 2010 
2.Handing over the investigation to C.B.I. after registering a formal F.I.R
3. Impugned result on the ground that some of the questions were wrong, some had wrong answers, some were repeat questions of UPSC PT examination.
4. Some general aptitude  questions were more mathematics based than being general
5. The qualifying marks ought to have been lowered, as some of the questions had in appropriate data to chose the correct answers.

What Commission did?
1. The Commission constituted an expert committee consisting of expert teachers of all subjects to re-evaluate the questions and Model answers of the examination. The Commission  found that Model answers chosen for the test  in respect of question nos. 1, 80, 89, 93 and 130 were not correct and as such recommended the correct answer provided in the multiple choices.
2.Question no.27 has two correct answers namely option C and D, but evaluation was done on the basis of option C.
3. The Commission on re-evaluation found that question nos. 141, 142 and 143 had in appropriate data to 
choose two correct answers.The commission gave equal marks to all these candidates for these three questions.
4. Question no.19 was deleted as it had no correct answers.
5. Commission said that the elements of Math in general aptitude test was too general and too incidental and would fall in mental ability test category and was not mathematics based.
6. question no.117 was a general reasoning question and cannot be said to be out of syllabus as petitioners have prayed.
7. CBI opposes the prayer and submits that petitioners have not brought any tangible materials on record to show the collusion of the officials either in preparing question papers or its evaluation.
8. over 15 questions asked in the P.T. examination were repeat questions of UPSC PT examinations held in 2006 and it gave advantage to those who had taken the said UPSC PT examination. The grievance of the petitioners was rejected on two grounds. Firstly; there is no bar repeating the UPSC PT questions in any other examinations including the examination conducted by Bihar Staff Selection Commission for Graduate Level, secondly; the UPSC PT examination was held in the year 2006 and the instant examination was being held in the year 2010, as such the point  agreed by the petitioners is devoid on any merit and is rejected.
BEST OF LUCK FOR MAINS EXAMINATION
