Published 3 Jul 2026 · Updated 5 Aug 2026
The Rajasthan Public Service Commission (RPSC), Ajmer released the final answer key on 03-07-2026 for the Sr. Scientific Officer (Home Department) Competitive Exam held on 13-05-2025. This exam covered three subjects: Part A (Physics), Part C (Forensic Science), and Computer Science, with a total of 150 multiple-choice questions. The answer key is final and has been published on the official RPSC website.
Candidates can use this answer key to estimate their likely score by comparing their responses against the official answers provided. The key lists the correct option (1, 2, 3, or 4) for each of the 150 questions. If any question has been deleted or marked as invalid, it is noted with an asterisk in the answer sheet.
Candidates who wish to challenge any answer must do so within the specified objection window (typically 5–7 days from publication, as per RPSC standard procedure). Each objection usually requires a nominal fee per question to be submitted through the official portal. Objections are reviewed by a subject expert committee, and if an answer is found to be incorrect, it may be corrected in the final key or all candidates may be awarded marks for that question.
After objections are processed and resolved, RPSC will issue a corrected final answer key (if needed) and proceed to declare the official result. Merit lists and further stages of selection—whether interview, document verification, or final appointment—follow as per the exam notification.

If you believe an answer in the key is incorrect, submit a formal objection through the RPSC portal during the objection window (usually 5–7 days after key publication). Each objection requires a nominal fee to be paid online. Your objection is reviewed by a subject expert panel, and if upheld, the key is corrected or all candidates are awarded marks for that question.

After objections are processed and the final answer key is confirmed, RPSC will announce the result within a few weeks as per the official exam timeline. Results are published on the website; candidates can check by logging into their portal using registration number and date of birth.
