📈 Year-over-Year Trend
1251 posts is a sizeable notification for a diploma-specific veterinary role, but only PET-2025 qualified candidates can apply, keeping the pool limited. With shortlisting capped at 15x vacancies per category based on PET score, your normalized PET-2025 rank matters just as much as performing well in this 100-mark main exam.
❓ More Information You Need
Q: Since only PET-2025 qualified candidates can apply, I never took PET-2025 — is there any way for me to apply now, or do I need to wait for PET-2026?
No, you cannot apply for this recruitment without a valid PET-2025 score. This application only allows PET-2025 qualifiers to opt into this specific post. If you don’t have a PET-2025 score, you are not eligible this cycle and would need to wait for UPSSSC to conduct a fresh PET and apply in a future cycle.
Q: What is the exact age cutoff date used to calculate my age (21-40 years)?
UPSSSC typically calculates age as on July 1 of the exam year (i.e., 01-07-2026 for this recruitment), unless the official advertisement specifies otherwise. Candidates should verify this exact cutoff date in the detailed PDF before assuming eligibility, especially if they are near the boundary (21 or 40).
Q: How much time do I get for the main written exam and is there negative marking (this is mentioned only in the FAQ, not in the Exam Pattern section)?
The main written exam is of 2 hours duration for 100 objective-type questions carrying 100 marks total, with 1/4th (0.25) negative marking for each wrong answer. This should also be added directly to the Exam Pattern table, not just the FAQ.
