UP Homeguard Details

Exam Pattern

The notices do not give the paper pattern, so none is stated here. Because the exam ran in six shifts, scores were normalised before the merit list was made.

Selection Process

Written exam, then a document check with the physical standard test, then a run. The Board called 1,07,221 candidates for the document check, about 2.6 times the vacancies. Final merit combines the normalised written score with marks for the extra qualifications shown in your documents, district by district and under the state reservation rules.

Cut Off

No cut-off table was published with the notices. Selection is by district merit, so the last selected score differs for each district and category.

Preparation Tips

The run is pass or fail: men cover 4.8 km in 28 minutes and women 2.4 km in 16 minutes, timed electronically. Train for it in the months before applying, since the next notice may leave only a few weeks.
