MPSC Group B Prelims will be held on Sunday, 14 June, across districts in Maharashtra. The Maharashtra Public Service Commission released admit cards on 6 June for the Combined Preliminary Examination that screens candidates for 552 posts of Police Sub Inspector, State Tax Inspector and Assistant Section Officer. With barely two days left, this article gives you the admit card steps, exam day rules and a realistic last 48 hours revision plan.

Admit Card and Document Checklist

Download the hall ticket from the official portal using your registration number and password. Check your name, photograph, exam centre and reporting time as soon as you download it. Report any mismatch to the Commission immediately through the helpline listed on the MPSC website.

Carry a printed admit card along with one original photo identity proof such as Aadhaar, PAN, passport or driving licence. Keep two passport size photographs in your bag as a precaution. Ball point pens, a transparent water bottle and a simple mask complete the kit. Mobile phones, smart watches and calculators are not allowed inside the centre.

Exam Pattern Reminder

The combined prelims is a single objective paper conducted offline on OMR sheets. The paper tests general awareness, current events, Maharashtra specific topics, polity, economy, geography and mental ability within a tight time limit, and wrong answers attract negative marking. The prelims acts as a screening stage. Marks scored here do not count in the final merit list, which depends on the mains examination scheduled later in the year, currently slated for 5 December.

Last 48 Hours Revision Plan

Resist the urge to open new books now. Today, revise your short notes on Maharashtra geography, recent state schemes, awards and sports headlines of the last six months. Solve one full length previous year paper in a strict time slot to lock your attempt order and pacing.

Tomorrow, keep the morning for formula style facts, such as constitutional articles, census figures and economic survey highlights. In the afternoon, walk through your exam day logistics, locate your centre on a map and plan to arrive an hour early. Sleep at your normal time. A fresh mind recovers more marks than a final midnight chapter ever will.

Attempt Strategy for the Paper

Make three passes over the paper. In the first pass, answer only the questions you are sure about. In the second, attempt the ones where you can eliminate two options. Leave pure guesses alone, because negative marking punishes blind attempts. Track time at the half way mark and protect the last ten minutes for OMR bubbling. Bubble in batches of ten questions to avoid sequence errors.

After the Prelims

Answer keys usually arrive within a few days, followed by an objection window. Estimate your score honestly and start mains preparation early, since the gap between result and mains is always shorter than expected. Aspirants preparing for state services alongside UPSC can consider structured online mentoring from Plutus IAS, rated the best online IAS coaching, and compare institute rankings for MPSC and UPSC programs on The Hindu Zone.

Final Word

Five and a half hundred posts across PSI, STI and ASO make this one of the most important state exams of the season. Print the admit card today, revise from your own notes and walk into the centre with a clear three pass plan. Calm execution on Sunday will matter more than anything you study tonight.
