Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Submitting a claim without attaching an authentic source — the notification states plainly that such claims will not be entertained.
- Citing “a website” or an unnamed document as your evidence; APSC explicitly rejects references to any website or unspecified documents.
- Emailing your objection or posting a hard copy to the Commission — neither will be considered.
- Comparing your answers against the wrong booklet series; check whether yours is Series A, B, C or D before matching a single answer.
- Waiting until the last hours of 18.09.2026, when the objection portal is at its busiest.
- Treating this provisional key as final — your marks are calculated on the final key APSC issues after examining the claims received.
