7.1 The following points emerge from Table-5:
(i) Geography was the most preferred subject among the optional subjects chosen by the candidates,
followed by Public Administration and Sociology.
(ii) Amongst the subjects opted by 100 or more candidates, the highest percentage of successful
candidates had opted for Medical Science (19.9 percent) followed by Law (17.0 percent) and
Psychology (15.8 percent).
(iii) As far as academic backgrounds of the recommended candidates are concerned, 51.3% were
from Engineering, followed by 28.4%, 13.4% and 6.9% from Humanities, Medical Science
and Sciences respectively. However, 87% of optional subjects opted by the recommended
candidates were related to Humanities (including literature of languages), followed by 5.5%,
5.4% and 2.1% related to Medical Science, Science and Engineering respectively. This shows
that most of the candidates have made a cross domain shift from their original stream (i.e.,
Engineering, Science and Medical Science) to humanities.
7.2 Distribution of optional subjects opted by the candidates recommended by broad streams of
optional subjects in the last five Civil Services (Main) Examinations are shown in Diagram-2.

* Note: Before 2013, candidates were required to opt for two optional subjects in Civil Services (Main) Examination. as such, the figures
shown against these years are double the number of qualified candidates. Since 2013, the candidates have to take only one optional
subject. The number has been shown accordingly in the Bar Diagram.
8.A disaggregated analysis of the candidates recommended for appointment shows that 196 candidates
or 14.4 percent belonged to the Scheduled Castes community, 98 candidates or 7.2 percent to the
Scheduled Tribes, 369 candidates or 27.1 percent to the Other Backward Classes and 700 candidates
or 51.3 percent to General category.
8.1 The community, age and gender-wise break-up of the candidates appeared in Civil Services
(Preliminary) Examination, Civil Services (Main) Examination and candidates finally recommended

9. Diagram-3 shows the trend of male candidates who appeared in Civil Services Examination
2014. It may be seen that highest percentage (24.4%) amongst the appeared male candidates in Civil
Services (Preliminary) Examination 2014 were from the age group of 21-24 years. But, in Civil
Services (Main) Examination 2014, maximum 23.9% male candidates appeared from the age group of
26-28 years. However, among the recommended candidates, the highest percentage (25.5%) of males
recommended, were from the age group of 26-28 years.]

10. Diagram-4 shows the trend of female candidates who appeared in Civil Services Examination
2014. It may be seen that highest percentage (35.8%) amongst the appeared female candidates in
Civil Services (Preliminary) Examination 2014, were from the age group of 21-24 years. But in Civil
Services (Main) Examination 2014, maximum 30.2% of the female candidates appeared from the age
group of 24-26 years and at recommendation stage, the highest percentage (29.4%) of the female
candidates recommended were from the age group of 24-26 years.
10.1 It is seen from Table 6-C that the highest percentage of candidates recommended belonged to
the age group of 24 - 26 years (25.6 percent), followed by 26 - 28 years (25.5 percent), 28 - 30 years
(17.4 percent), 21 - 24 years (15.9 percent) and 30 years & above (15.6 percent).
11. The community and age-wise distribution of the candidates who have been recommended for the
Indian Administrative Service (I.A.S.)/Indian Foreign Service (I.F.S.) is given in Table-7.

11.1 Community and age-wise distribution of candidates recommended for I.A.S./I.F.S. is shown
in Diagram-5.
12. Out of 2,017 female candidates who appeared in the Civil Services (Main) Examination,
2014, total 313 were recommended for appointment, registering a success rate at 15.5 percent. As
against this, 1,050 out of 14,269 male candidates were recommended which represents a success rate
at 7.4 percent. Thus, the success rate of female candidates was significantly higher than that of male
candidates.
13. The community and gender-wise success rate of candidates is given in Table-8.

13.1 It is seen from the Table-8 that the performance of female candidates belonging to various
communities viz. Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Other Backward Classes and General category
was better than that of male candidates of corresponding community.
14. Out of a total of 13,024 persons with disabilities who applied for the Civil Services (Preliminary)
Examination-2014, total 6,252 candidates appeared in Civil Services (Preliminary) Examination and
500 qualified. But only 460 candidates with disabilities appeared in Civil Services (Main) Examination
and 54 such candidates were recommended for appointment. Of them, two belonged to Scheduled
Castes, 12 candidates belonged to Other Backward Classes and 40 to General community. This

includes six female candidates recommended for appointment. Further, seven such candidates qualified
the examination in their first attempt and three candidates among them, belonged to the age-group of
21-24 years. Furthermore, among these 54 candidates, 27 candidates, who qualified the Examination,
belong to the age group of 30 years and above.
14.1 It is important to mention here that, in all the tables and diagrams given in this appendix, the
number of candidates with disabilities has been taken in their respective communities i.e. Scheduled
Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Other Backward Classes and General community.
15. The community and gender-wise number of attempts made by the candidates in Civil Services
(Preliminary), Civil Services (Main) and finally recommended are given in the Table 9-A, 9-B and
