This year TNPSC Group 1 2014 Exam had been scheduled to be conducted on 26-04-2014. Now the exam date has been postponed to 20-07-2014.

    1. You can prepare both Group 2 Mains and Group 1 Prelims, unlike TNPSC Group 1 Mains which will have only descriptive questions, in Gr 2 mains you will have very less descriptive and more objective type questions. So it will be useful for Group 1 Prelims also. All the best !

    1. Dear Hopel,

      In TNPSC Group 1 2014 advertisement, it is said

      Note:-
      (i) “The qualification prescribed for these posts should have been obtained by passing the required qualification in the order of studies 10th + HSC (or its equivalent)+ U.G. degree.

      See there is a word HSC or its equivalent, so I think you are eligible to apply. Anyhow please make a call to TNPSC Office, the phone numbers available on their website www.tnpsc.gov.in and confirm that. All the best !

For fourth exam onwards you should pay examination fee. If you have done the mistake don't worry, apply one more time with paying examination fee and use the second application for writing examination. If any doubt , contact tnpsc office
