This year, 650 vacancies have been announced, and the Mains exam is the final written stage before the Language Proficiency Test and final selection. Here is the most critical fact — the Prelims exam was only qualifying in nature. The marks you scored in April do not count anywhere in your final merit list. Every single mark you score on June 7 determines your rank, your selection, and the RBI office you will be posted to. There is no second chance after this exam.
