  1. Dear All,

    cutoff will be mostly 300 for OC,don’t believe any fake news,highest marks in all technical exams conducted by APPSC in EEE/ECE/MECH/CIVIL/INSTRUMENTATION/CSE is 300-310

      • there is no zone preference in this exam.because it is open that the posting is not related to zone hmwssb is there in hyderabad only.so open competetive and preference on caste vacancies.

        i belongs to bc-d.

      • For non local candidates(other than Zone VI) first we should come to know whether there are any vacancies in their category(i.e,OC,BC,SC,ST,Woman,General(men) etc) in the respective branches then we can analyze on the cutoff

        • hmwssb comes under zone 6 but for local and non local the marks variation is 5 to 7 marks that is if a local candidate gets 300 marks then the non local candidate have to get 305.thats the difference betwwen a local and non local candidate.preference will be given those who get highest marks not to the guys who belongs to zone 6.

          • The difference between local and non local marks we cannot predict. But the final break up of the vacancies(local/non local) will be know only after the results and during the certificate verification.
            For the local vacancies only zone 6 candidates merit list will be prepared and the non local list will be combination of all zones including Zone 6 depending on number of non local vacancies.
            So there is high chance for getting a job to zone 6 compare to other Zones. Hopefully my inputs are correct

          • appsc will fix the cutoff for both local and non local candidates if all the candidates who belongs to zone 6 get the highest marks then they will be get selected if a non local candidate gets that cut off then preference will be given to non local candidate only .

          • in appsc a local candidate can prefer to anothe zone if he wants job in that zone so if he gets the cut off that was kept by the commission then he will be selected
            so a non local candidate has to get 5-10 marks more than the local candidate to get selected.

            dont put ur comments un necessarily knowing nothing about zone preferences.

        • a local candidate can prefer a job in other zone where he will be considered as a non local candidate so ther is no rule in appsc that only local candidates will get the jobs in their zone but 5-7 marks difference will be ther foe local and non local candidate.
