Dear Students,
The BABA’S GURKUL ENTRANCE TEST for students preparing for UPSC 2021 was held on 14th February.
However, many students appearing for their respective State Public Service Commission had mailed us requesting us to reschedule the exam date, as their State Exams were held in the same period.
So considering the request, the Entrance Test for Baba’s Gurkul for students who have appeared for State Civil Service Exam (ONLY) will be held on 18th February, 2021 (Tomorrow).
P.S: If you are selected in the first round, comprising of Prelims and Mains, in the 2nd round (Interview) you need to produce a copy of your State Exam Hall Ticket as a proof.
