A library table with a closed map, a fountain pen and a glass of water, for GPSC preliminary practice.

The preliminary test for advertisements 42/2026-27 to 56/2026-27 is 300 questions in 180 minutes. The pattern is on the GPSC syllabus page. This sitting is 20 general studies questions: Gujarat, the Constitution, and the maritime facts that sit inside a general studies paper. The 200-question subject paper changes with the post, so it is not mixed in here.

How this paper is set

The detailed advertisement does not print negative marking for this preliminary test, so a wrong answer here scores zero. In the real test, a score below 10 percent is not called for interview.
