So, the RPSC has finally dropped the syllabus for the 2026 Assistant Prosecution Officer (APO) exam. If you've been waiting for this, you know it's a massive opportunity to kickstart a career in the legal wing of the Rajasthan government. Honestly, with the new criminal laws now in the picture, things have changed a bit, and you need to be sharp. Don't worry, I've broken down everything you need to know to get started without getting overwhelmed by the heavy documentation.
The exam is split into two stages. Remember, the Prelims are just there to shortlist you—your final ranking depends on the Mains.
| Stage | Pattern | Key Subjects |
|---|---|---|
| Prelims | Objective (MCQ) | 70% Law, 30% Hindi/English |
| Mains | Descriptive | Law (300 Marks), Language (100 Marks) |
This year, the focus is definitely on the new criminal codes. You cannot afford to skip these:
Look, studying for the APO isn't just about reading; it's about application. Start by grabbing the official Bare Acts. Don't just read them; practice charge framing—that's where most candidates lose marks. Also, since there is a 1/3rd negative marking in Prelims, don't play guessing games. Stick to what you're sure about.
