The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) is expected to release the admit card for the Civil Services Preliminary Examination (CSE) 2026 today, May 15, although this has not been officially confirmed. The examination is set for May 24, and candidates can access their e-Admit Cards from the official UPSC websites, upsc.gov.in and upsconline.gov.in. To download the admit card, candidates need to enter their Registration ID or Roll Number along with their Date of Birth. The CSE prelims will consist of 180 objective-type questions, with 100 questions from General Studies and 80 from the Civil Services Aptitude Test (CSAT), carrying a total of 400 marks. Each correct answer earns two marks, while one-third of the marks will be deducted for incorrect answers. The exam will be conducted in two sessions: the General Studies paper from 9:30 am to 11:30 am and the CSAT paper from 2:30 pm to 4:30 pm. Candidates who pass the prelims will qualify for the Main examination and the subsequent interview.
