UPSC Civil Services Examination is counted among the biggest and prestigious examinations in the country. Every year lakhs of youth fill the form with the dream of joining IAS, IPS and other big government services. But sometimes small carelessness spoils their dreams. Filling the form seems easy, but even one mistake made in it can create problems in future. Therefore, if you are going to apply, then understand these important things first.
The first and most important thing is that you check whether you are eligible to take the exam or not. This includes age limit, educational qualification, number of attempts, nationality and medical conditions. Many students fill the form without reading the complete information. Later, when the documents are checked, it is found that they do not fulfill any of the conditions. Therefore, read the official notification carefully and only then apply.
Fill in your information correctly
Write your name, date of birth, parents’ name, address, mobile number and email ID correctly in the form. Even a small spelling mistake can become a big problem later. Remember, all the information related to the exam will come on your mobile and email only. If the number or email is wrong then important information will not reach you. Therefore, before submitting the form, check it not once but twice.
Be careful while paying fees
Some categories of candidates get exemption in fees. But those who do not come under the exemption limit, it is necessary for them to deposit the fees on time. Many times students fill the form, but the payment is not completed or the transaction fails. In such a situation the application may be cancelled. Therefore, after payment, please check whether the fees have been deposited successfully or not. Keep the payment receipt or message safely.
Choose your exam center wisely
Choosing the exam center while filling the form is not just a formality, but it is a very important decision. In most cases, examination centers are given to those who apply first. That is, the one who fills the form early has more chances of getting the city of his choice. If you keep thinking and fill the form on the last day, then it is possible that the center of your city may already be full. In such a situation, you may have to go to another city to take the exam, which may increase the hassle of travel and accommodation. Therefore, it is better to apply on time and choose a center which is easy and convenient for you to reach.
Upload documents correctly
It is necessary to upload a clear and correct scan of photo, signature and photo ID in the form. Keep in mind that the photo should be new and your face is clearly visible in it. The signature should also be neat and in the prescribed size. If the image is not uploaded in the correct format, the application may also be canceled.
Avoid filling more than one form
It is better to fill the entire form carefully once. If for some reason two or more applications have been made, ensure that the form with the latest registration ID is completely correct and complete.
