If you are a candidate preparing for upcoming recruitment examinations, you should be aware of a new change in the question papers of these examinations. The Rajasthan Public Service Commission has introduced a significant alteration. They  will now provide a fifth option in the objective question papers and the accompanying OMR sheet. This fifth option serves as a special feature; if a candidate chooses not to answer a particular question, they can simply select this fifth option instead. 

This adjustment offers candidates more flexibility and allows them to skip questions they may find challenging or prefer not to attempt. It is essential for candidates to understand and utilize this new option effectively to optimize their performance in these examinations.

One must take the fifth option seriously, as failure to fill it in for at least 10 percent of the questions will result in disqualification. After completing the examination, candidates are required to submit the entire OMR sheet to the invigilator. The invigilator will retain the original copy and, with care, separate the carbon copy, which will then be handed to the candidate. It is crucial for candidates to safeguard this carbon copy throughout the selection process and present it to the Commission upon request.
