Hello Akshay,

To be eligible for the Maharashtra Public Service Commission (MPSC) exam, candidates must meet certain educational qualifications. Here's a general guideline regarding eligibility:

MPSC Eligibility Criteria:

1. Educational Qualification : Candidates must hold a Bachelor's Degree from a recognized university.
   
   

2. 12th/HSC Exam Requirement : While passing the HSC (12th standard) exam is a common educational requirement for most degree programs, MPSC mainly focuses on whether you have a valid Bachelor's Degree from a recognized university.
   
   YCMOU BA Degree:

• Since you have completed your BA from Yashwantrao Chavan Maharashtra Open University (YCMOU) after passing the preparatory exam (without HSC), it depends on whether YCMOU is recognized by the MPSC. YCMOU is a recognized open university, and many students who complete degrees from this institution are eligible for various government exams, including MPSC.
  
  Conclusion:
  
  
• Yes , you are likely eligible for MPSC as long as YCMOU is recognized for the purpose of the exam. The fact that you have completed a BA degree should fulfill the educational qualification, even if you did not pass the HSC exam, since YCMOU allows preparatory exam-based admissions.

However, it is always a good idea to double-check with the MPSC notification for any specific instructions or consult the commission's help desk for clarity.

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.

Hello,

Since you've completed your BA from YCMOU (Yashwantrao Chavan Maharashtra Open University) without passing the HSC exam, eligibility depends on whether the MPSC recognizes your degree as equivalent to a regular graduation. Generally, a preparatory exam from YCMOU can be considered an alternative to HSC, but it’s important to verify this with MPSC's latest eligibility criteria.

I recommend contacting the MPSC or checking their official notifications for specific guidelines on candidates with non-standard educational paths like yours. You may also need to present additional documentation to confirm the equivalency of your qualification.
