  • The BPSC Prosecution Officer Preliminary Exam 2026 will be conducted in a single day but across two separate shifts, each covering a different subject paper. The table below explains the exact date, timing, and paper for each shift.
  • Each shift is of two hours' duration. Candidates appearing for the Prosecution Officer post must sit for both papers on the same day, as the exam is conducted only once across the two shifts.

BPSC Prosecution Officer Exam Pattern: Five Options and Option 'E' Rule

  • A distinctive feature of BPSC exams is the mandatory five-option answer format. This section explains how the option-based system and "Not Attempted" rule work for the Prosecution Officer Preliminary Exam.
  • As per the official notice, every question in the exam will carry five answer options: A, B, C, D, and E. Option 'E' stands for "Not Attempted". This means:
  • If a candidate does not wish to answer a particular question, they must compulsorily mark option 'E' (Not Attempted) for that question.
  • If a candidate fails to select any option - including option 'E' - for a question, a negative marking of 1/3 (one-third) mark will be deducted for that question.
  • This rule makes it essential for candidates to mark an answer choice for every single question, either a valid option (A-D) or 'E' if they choose to skip it, to avoid unnecessary negative marking.
