Hi Surender, Good to see detailed comments on the Group 1 cut offs. All those are just predictions based on earlier cut offs and standard of the question paper. We hope APPSC will consider the points raised by you, even if they don’t replly due to bureaucratic reasons. The predictions will keep changing till the date of results as we find new issues with question paper and possible answers. Your prediction of 90+ marks will be the right answer.
Regards.
