The UPSC question paper 2020 followed the standard of the yesteryears. The difficulty level of the question paper was moderate. Some questions were moderated and few questions were difficult. The candidates found the UPSC CSAT paper (aptitude) paper easy to answer. The comprehensions were short; the maths questions were easy but time taking and the reasoning questions were of moderated difficulty.

UPSC cut off will not be impacted by the low absent ratio in the UPSC prelims 2020. The reason is that the number of applicants in the UPSC exam 2020 were over ten lakhs. This is a normal figure and every year almost similar figures are found. Every year, almost 50% of candidates do not appear in the exam because of the fear of wasting of attempt. So the real competition is always among the top fifty thousand candidates who prepare well and are well versed with the structure of the prelims paper. This year also the competition will remain the same because the candidates who prepared well did not leave the exam.
