RPSC gives 31 Senior Teacher (Social Science) candidates who missed the detailed form a second chance: 30 October to 3 November 2026, 11:59 pm (press note of 28 October 2026). The result of 9 October 2026 lists 1,217 candidates for document verification, all in the Non-Scheduled Area. Cut-off and next steps.
Second chance for 31 Social Science candidates: RPSC's press note of 28 October 2026 says 31 candidates in the Senior Teacher (Social Science) provisional list did not submit their online detailed application form in the first window. They can now fill it from 30 October 2026 to 3 November 2026 (until 11:59 pm). Their roll numbers are on page 2 of the press note. This chance is only for those 31 listed candidates. RPSC says no further chance will be given, and a candidate who does not fill the form will not be considered in the selection process.
The Rajasthan Public Service Commission (RPSC) released the result preamble and cut-off marks for the Senior Teacher (Social Science) Competitive Exam 2025 on 9 October 2026. It is the provisional list of candidates for eligibility checking for the Social Science posts of the Secondary Education Department, under Advt. No. 07/2025-26. The written exam (Paper I General Knowledge and Paper II Social Science) was held on 12 July 2026.
1,217 candidates are in the list, all in one Non-Scheduled Area list (Social Science has no Scheduled Area posts). They are the candidates who appeared in both papers and got the minimum qualifying marks under the service rules. This is not the final result or a merit list. It is only for document verification. The first detailed-form window (15 to 21 October 2026) has closed.

The press note does not repeat the portal steps. The result notice of 9 October 2026 gives them: log in with your own SSO ID on the recruitment portal and choose My Recruitment > Detailed Form Cum Scrutiny > Apply Now.
Roll numbers are not copied on this page, so that nothing is mistyped. Always use the official PDF.
The notice gives one cut-off in marks: 223.56 for Gen. (UR) in the Non-Scheduled Area (one figure printed across the GEN. and GEN. WE rows). The notice does not say out of how many marks this figure is. Every other category shows ALL or N.A. (one disability row instead remarks that candidates are already available in the respective category), and the notes explain the two codes:
The advertisement sets the minimum qualifying marks at 40% in each paper, relaxed by 5% for candidates of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes; ex-servicemen and candidates with disabilities get relaxation under the state's rules for them. The codes in the table (GEN., GEN. WE, WD, DV) are printed as they are in the notice: General, General Women, Widow and Divorcee.
| Category | GEN. | GEN. WE | WD | DV |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gen. (UR) | 223.56 | 223.56 | N.A. | ALL |
| S.C. | ALL | ALL | N.A. | N.A. |
| S.T. | ALL | ALL | N.A. | N.A. |
| O.B.C. | ALL | ALL | N.A. | N.A. |
| M.B.C. | ALL | ALL | N.A. | not shown |
| E.W.S. | ALL | ALL | N.A. | not shown |
| Sahariya | N.A. | N.A. | not shown | not shown |
For E.W.S., the remarks cell beside the GEN. and GEN. WE rows prints "-" level with GEN. and "Candidates Considered in Provisional List by Normal Procedure" level with GEN. WE. The notice does not explain this remark further.
Where the notice prints one figure (223.56 or ALL) across the GEN. and GEN. WE rows of a category, both columns above show it. "Not shown" means the notice prints no row for it.
There is no Scheduled Area cut-off: the notice prints only a Non-Scheduled Area table, because Social Science has no Scheduled Area posts.
Ex-servicemen: Gen. (UR) ALL; S.C., S.T., O.B.C. and E.W.S. N.A. No M.B.C. row is printed. Persons with disabilities: B/LV (blind or low vision) already available in the respective category (the notice's remark); H.H. (hard of hearing) N.A.; OA/OL/OAL/CP/LC/SD/SI/DW/AAV ALL; (a) ASD (M), M.I., S.L.D. & (b) Mul. Dis. N.A.
RPSC has declared 880 candidates disqualified from this exam, under Note 4 of the result. The reason is the OMR rule in the advertisement: a candidate who has not darkened any of the five circles in more than 10% of the questions is disqualified. Their roll numbers are in the list of disqualified candidates, dated 9 October 2026.
The advertisement also explains the OMR sheet: each question has five options, and a candidate who is not attempting a question must darken circle 5. If none of the five circles is darkened, one third of the marks of that question are deducted.
Under Note 5 of the result, the result of one candidate is kept in a sealed cover, because a case is pending before the Rajasthan High Court. The notice does not give the case number.
The advertisement lists these rules. Your detailed form and documents are checked against them, and a candidate found ineligible can lose the candidature at any stage.
Advt. No. 07/2025-26 first covered 6,500 posts in 10 subjects, including 401 Social Science posts, all in the Non-Scheduled Area. The posts were later revised, and the latest Corrigendum No. 13/2026-27 (29 July 2026) gives 9,651 posts in all. For Social Science it gives 600 posts, all in the Non-Scheduled Area.
| Category | GEN. | GEN. WE | WD | DV | Total (our sum) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gen. (UR) | 153 | 41 | 18 | 2 | 214 |
| S.C. | 65 | 18 | 9 | 2 | 94 |
| S.T. | 48 | 13 | 8 | 1 | 70 |
| O.B.C. | 87 | 25 | 9 | 3 | 124 |
| M.B.C. | 20 | 10 | 1 | 0 | 31 |
| E.W.S. | 43 | 12 | 6 | 0 | 61 |
| Sahariya | General male 4, General female 2 (Sahariya primitive tribe of all tehsils of Baran district) | 6 | |||
| Total | 600 | ||||
RPSC prints only the total (600); the category totals in the last column are added by AIJobAlert.
Horizontal reservation within these posts: ex-servicemen Gen. (UR) 26, S.C. 10, S.T. 6, O.B.C. 14, M.B.C. 0, E.W.S. 4; persons with disabilities B/LV 5, H.H. 5, OA/OL/OAL/CP/LC/SD/SI/DW/AAV 6, (a) ASD (M), M.I., S.L.D. & (b) Mul. Dis. 7. Women (including widows and divorcees), disability and ex-servicemen reservations are horizontal, within each category. If no eligible widow is available, the seat can first be filled by a divorcee (and the other way round); seats still unfilled go to other women of the same category, and then to men of that category.
Social Science has no Scheduled Area posts: the advertisement lists 0 for the Scheduled Area, and no corrigendum adds any. That is why the result has only a Non-Scheduled Area list and cut-off.
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Qualification | Graduate or equivalent (UGC recognised) with at least two of these as optional subjects: History, Geography, Economics, Political Science, Sociology, Public Administration and Philosophy; and B.Ed. from an NCTE-recognised institution (as notified in Corrigendum No. 09/2025-26); also working knowledge of Hindi written in Devanagari script and knowledge of Rajasthani culture (advertisement). Candidates who applied in their final year must show that they obtained the qualification before the competitive exam (held on 12 July 2026). |
| Age | At least 18 years and under 40 years on 1 January 2026. Upper age relaxation: 5 years for SC, ST, OBC, MBC and EWS men of Rajasthan; 10 years for SC, ST, OBC, MBC and EWS women of Rajasthan; 5 years for General (unreserved) women; no upper age limit for widows and divorcees; 15 years for ex-servicemen (up to 50 years; an ex-serviceman gets whichever age relaxation is more beneficial). Relaxations do not add up, except that persons with benchmark disabilities get 5 years more on top. Age must not be over 60 on the date of appointment. The advertisement also lists special cases, for example for ex-prisoners who served the Government before conviction and for persons already appointed temporarily in the service. Social Science is one of the posts RPSC last advertised in 2024, when age was counted on 1 January 2025, so the advertisement gives no additional upper-age relaxation to candidates who are over-age on 1 January 2026 |
| Pay | Pay Matrix Level L-11; fixed monthly pay during probation as per state rules |
| Selection | Competitive written exam; names recommended in order of merit of written-exam marks (the advertisement allows scaling, moderation or normalisation) |

| Paper I | 200 | 100 | 2 hours | Rajasthan geography, history, culture and general knowledge; current affairs of Rajasthan; general knowledge of the world and India; Educational Psychology |
| Paper II | 300 | 150 | 2 hours 30 minutes | Social Science at secondary and senior secondary level, graduation level knowledge, and teaching methods of the subject |
| Total | 500 | 250 (our sum) |
There is negative marking: one third of the marks of a question is deducted for every wrong answer, and multiple answers count as wrong.

No. The notice says the list is only for document verification and is not a selection or merit list. RPSC will issue the final list of successful candidates after the Secondary Education Department verifies the documents.
1,217, all in one Non-Scheduled Area list. Social Science has no Scheduled Area posts, so there is no Scheduled Area list.
Open the official result PDF, go to the roll number list on the first four pages, and search for your roll number. If it is not there, check the list of disqualified candidates.
The only cut-off printed in marks is 223.56, for Gen. (UR) (GEN. and GEN. WE) in the Non-Scheduled Area. Every other category shows ALL (all candidates who got the minimum qualifying marks) or N.A. (candidates not available due to the minimum qualifying marks), except the B/LV disability row, which says candidates are "Already Available in Respective Category". The minimum qualifying marks are 40% in each paper, 5% less for SC and ST, with relaxation for ex-servicemen and candidates with disabilities under the state's rules.
The Secondary Education Department, Bikaner. The department will inform candidates of the date, time and place, and RPSC will not send a separate notice. A candidate who does not attend on the fixed date is treated as ineligible.
Under Note 4 of the result, 880 candidates were disqualified because they did not darken any of the five options in more than 10% of the questions. This is the rule in the advertisement.
The notice says P means provisional. Two roll numbers in the Social Science list carry it.
The latest corrigendum (No. 13/2026-27, 29 July 2026) gives 600 Social Science posts, all in the Non-Scheduled Area, including 6 Sahariya posts. The advertisement first had 401.
There are two papers, 500 marks in all: Paper I (General Knowledge) of 200 marks with 100 questions in 2 hours, and Paper II (subject) of 300 marks with 150 questions in 2 hours 30 minutes. One third of the marks is deducted for each wrong answer.
