Worth preparing alongside

We cannot line APPSC up against other exams yet

This does not mean APPSC shares nothing with the exams you are preparing for — only that we have not loaded a chapter-by-chapter syllabus we can compare against, so we will not guess. We compare 0 exams whose official syllabus we have traced to the conducting body, and this one is not among them yet.

How to apply
Open official application page
  1. 1Register bio-data through One Time Profile Registration (OTPR) on the Commission's website. A user ID is generated and sent to the registered mobile number and email ID. OTPR is not itself an application for any post.
  2. 2Log in with the registered OTPR number and apply online for the specific notification within the application window, which each notification fixes.
  3. 3Check the pre-populated data carefully. Fee and age relaxation are calculated from the OTPR data, and the Commission does not allow later changes to name, fee or age relaxation.
  4. 4Pay the application processing fee and, unless exempt, the examination fee, online through net banking, credit card or debit card. Fees once remitted are not refunded or adjusted, and demand drafts or IPOs are not accepted.
  5. 5Corrections after submission are charged at Rs.100 per correction, and name, fee and age-relaxation fields cannot be corrected at all.
  6. 6Download the hall ticket from the Commission's website when it is hosted; instructions are published on the site.
FAQs
Is there an APPSC Group notification open now?

No. As of 3 August 2026 the newest entry on the Commission's Recruitment Notifications list is Notification No.29/2025 dated 24/09/2025, and the last Group-I and Group-II notifications were 12/2023 and 11/2023.

How many stages does APPSC Group-I have?

Three. A Screening Test of two objective papers of 120 questions and 120 marks each, a descriptive Main Examination of a qualifying Telugu paper, a qualifying English paper and five papers of 150 marks each, and an Interview of 75 marks. The scheme's stated total is 825 marks.

Is there negative marking?

Yes. Under G.O.Ms.No.235, Finance (HR-I, Plg & Policy) Dept., dated 06/12/2016, each wrong answer is penalised with 1/3rd of the marks prescribed for that question. This is printed in the Group-I, Group-II and Group-IV schemes alike.

Do I have to pass a computer test for Group-II?

Yes. Notification No.11/2023 states that no candidate is eligible for appointment to posts under Group-II Services unless the Computer Proficiency Test is qualified. It is a 60-minute practical test of 100 marks, with minimum qualifying marks of 30 for SC/ST/PH, 35 for BCs and 40 for OCs.

In which language is the paper set?

For Notification No.22/2025 the Commission states that the question paper is set in English and translated into Telugu, with the English version treated as authentic for valuation. For Group-I, candidates choose their medium for the Main Examination online before that examination.

What does the application cost?

Rs.250 towards application processing fee in both notifications read, plus an examination fee that differs by notification: Rs.120 for Group-I 12/2023 and Rs.80 for 22/2025. SC, ST, BC, Persons with Benchmark Disabilities, Ex-Servicemen, white-card families in Andhra Pradesh and declared unemployed youth are exempt from the examination fee.
