MPSC PSI Cutoff- Selection Process, Cutoff Marks

The Maharashtra Public Service Commission or MSPC conducts the Police sub-inspector or PSI recruitment through the group B examination. The entire selection process is divided into four stages: prelims, mains, physical tests, and interviews.

Understanding the MPSC PSI selection process

The MPSC PSI examination is divided into four parts. Each phase qualifies you for the next round, and only those candidates who are selected and qualified in the previous round can appear for the next MPSC PSI examination phase.

• The preliminary examination carries a total of 100 marks. The candidate should submit the application to sit in the preliminary examination. If the candidate qualifies in the preliminary exam and meets the MPSC PSI cutoff for prelims, he can sit in the main examination.

• The main examination carries 200 marks. The round consists of two papers which are paper one and paper 2. Paper 1 is the same for all the candidates. Paper 2 is dependent on the post that the candidate has opted for

• The third is the physical test of 100 marks. The candidates who qualify in the main examination are selected to appear for the PST examination. The organization checks if the applicant is fit or not. 

• The final round is the interview for 40 marks. The candidates who qualify in the PST round are called for the interview. Here one is judged on their knowledge about the field and post.
