IAS EXAM 2010

Civil Services Aptitude Test (CSAT)

Aspirants for the civil services will face a different pattern of examination from next year. With the new format, candidates answer two objective type papers which are the general studies paper and the General Aptitude Paper. Consequently, the Civil Services preliminary examination will be referred to as Civil Services Aptitude Test (CSAT). There are no changes planned for the format of the main exam and interview.

Both the papers of the CSAT will carry equal marks. It is completely transparent in terms of marks and has no disparity. With everyone preparing in a similar pattern, all students have equal opportunity in the exam.The benefit of introducing aptitude tests in the civil service exam is that it assesses logical reasoning and thinking performance. It is based on multiple choice questions answered in exam conditions.

No subject influences, or can have an effect on an aptitude test. The emphasis will be on moral and ethical values, logical thinking and sensible decision making. With the implementation of the CSAT, it is possible to choose better and more competent civil servants who have the right aptitude. It will also bring the use of scaling systems to an end. Civil servants will thus be chosen based on their ability of handling tough decision making skills required of civil servants and not based on their expertise on a single subject.
