Rajasthan APO Cut Off 2026 (Expected)  

This year, there are two things pulling the Rajasthan APO cut off in opposite directions:  

• 371 vacancies in 2026 is a lot of posts. It's more posts than the previous cycle's smaller batch. More vacancies usually pull the cut off down, because RPSC needs to shortlist more candidates for Mains. 
• Rising awareness of the APO career path and a larger applicant pool tend to push the cut off up.  

Considering these aspects, the expected Rajasthan APO 2026 cut off sits broadly in the high 60s to low 70s, in line with the previous cycle's 71.67. 

Here's the category-wise expected cut off:  

Category	Expected Prelims Cut Off (Previous Cycle)	Basis
General / OBC / EWS	~68-74	Prior cycle clustered ~70-72
MBC	~32-38	Prior cycle 34.67
ST	~33-38	Prior cycle 35.33
SC	Lower (varies by sub-category)	Wide category relaxation

Rajasthan APO Mains & Final Cut Off for Previous Year  

The Mains stage is where selection is decided. In the previous cycle, RPSC released the Assistant Prosecution Officer Main Examination cut off alongside the Mains result, for posts under the relevant department.  

Here are the details:  

Category	Mains / Final Cut Off (Previous Cycle)	Remarks
GEN (UR)	163.50	Non-Scheduled Area post
SC / ST / OBC (most)	N.A.	Vacancy-linked; see note

For the Rajasthan APO exam, the final merit list is prepared based on Mains marks. So, your real target is the Mains score, and the Prelims cut off is only the gate you must clear to get there. Aspirants who understand this early stop over-preparing for Prelims and start building Mains answer-writing much sooner.  

Factors that Decide the Rajasthan APO Cut Off 

Cut off isn't a figure that someone decides randomly. It's driven by specific aspects of the examination. Here are the factors that impact Rajasthan APO cut off:  

• Number of Vacancies: The single biggest lever. 371 posts in 2026 creates a larger pool than the previous cycle, which generally eases the Prelims cut off. 
• Number of Candidates Who Appeared: A bigger, more competitive field raises the bar, especially in the General–OBC–EWS cluster where relaxations are thin. 
• Difficulty of the Paper: A tough Prelims lowers the cut off; a scoring paper raises it. This is why comparing raw marks across years without context misleads you. 
• Reservation and Category-wise Distribution: Category-wise and horizontal reservations reshape each category's cut off independently. 
• Previous-Year Trends: RPSC's own history acts as an anchor; sharp year-on-year swings are rare unless vacancies change notably.

What to Do After the Rajasthan APO Prelims?  

The Rajasthan APO cut off will be released only with or after the result. However, you cannot wait that long to take your next step. While waiting for the cut off, here's what we suggest you should do.  

Estimate your Prelims score honestly using the official Rajasthan APO answer key, then:  

• If your estimated score is comfortably above your category's previous cut off: Do not wait for the result. Start Mains answer-writing and revision now. The candidates who convert are the ones who used the result-gap productively. 
• If you are within ~3-4 marks of the previous cut off: Still prepare Mains. The 2026 cut off may fall, and even if it is close, you lose nothing by being ready for the mains. Waiting is the only real mistake here. 
• If you are clearly below the band: Use the cycle as diagnostic data. Identify whether you lost marks in law subjects or in GK/Rajasthan-specific sections and rebuild that block for the next attempt.  

The time in between the prelims and mains is precious start preparing for Rajasthan APO mains instead of  simply waiting around.  

Here are the key takeaways:  

• The RPSC APO cut off 2026 is not yet released. It will appear category-wise on rpsc.rajasthan.gov.in with the Prelims result.  
• According to previous-cycle benchmarks: Prelims General cut off was 71.67; Mains/final GEN (UR) 163.50 for the non-scheduled area post.  
• General, OBC, and EWS cut offs cluster together in the low 70s. Plan as if you need a General-level Prelims score. 
• 371 vacancies in 2026 may ease the Prelims bar slightly, but the Mains decides selection make sure you prepare well in time.
