How to answer in UPSC personality test?

While approximately half of the questions in the UPSC personality test are based on your biodata, your social characteristics or involvement in current affairs may be tested on the next half of the questions.

How are you supposed to answer questions outside the UPSC interview?

This article concentrates on selected sample topics outside the Detailed Request Form which can be explored within the context of the IAS personality test.

What will be tested in the UPSC personality test?

The following are some excerpts from the notification of the Civil Services Review by the UPSC: "The purpose of the interview is to determine the candidate's personal suitability for a public service career. This really is not just an evaluation of his academic abilities but also of his social features and interest in the present. 

  • Critical assimilation ability 
  • Transparent and rational access
  • Balance of judgment Variety and depth of interest
  • social cohesion capability
  • leadership Intellectual and moral integrity

"An interview technique is a normal, yet centered and purposeful conversation." To summarize, the members of the board of directors should speak to the applicant about the attributes listed above.

The focus of the discussion could be DAF, which forms the central test and has to be prepared for extensively as well as / or certain other aspects, for which the board's evaluations are significantly accompanied by current affairs, contextual questions, and general queries.


The social problems which our country is currently facing are the same issues we faced at the time of Independence. Does that mean that India as a nation failed?

This question presupposes that we are now faced with the same problems.
If a candidate asks questions about the assumption, follow-up questions may include: at the time of independence, we were facing bad and analphabetism.

If the assumption is acknowledged, then the applicant must explain why India should not be considered a failed state, although, since independence, it can not solve the social problems.

This is yet another presumptive matter that suggests that women's status has declined over the years in our society.

If the hypothesis is answered, the following questions could include: if the status of women has changed, why has the representation of women no longer increased in the labor force and in parliament / Assemblies?
Why does India have a weak index for gender inequality?
Why are we seeing more and more crimes against women?

The applicant believes that the status of women in old age is better than today, which is a stance difficult to defend if the claim is acknowledged.
