For the UPSC Civil Service Exam a candidate has to face Preliminary Test if clear then Written Exam. At last have to face interview but should be scored good marks in both as there is cut off marks. Preliminary test is having objective type questions & main exam having question which you have to write the way you had written in School & College. Below I have attached the UPSC Civil Service Exam notification for your reference which will give you all the details.
