RPSC AE Answer Key 2025: Download Steps, PDF Link & How to Use It

What is the RPSC AE / AEN Answer Key?

• The answer key is a document released by RPSC that contains correct answers to the questions asked in the AE / AEN exam (Prelims / mains) for all subjects (compulsory + optional).

• It may be first issued as a provisional / model answer key (open to objections) and later finalized after review. This is standard practice for many RPSC exams including AE / AEN.

• It helps candidates cross-check their marked responses, get a tentative score, and identify mistakes early.

According to Testbook, once the AE / AEN exam is concluded, RPSC will release the answer key for both the compulsory and optional portions. 

Where to Check the RPSC Answer Key Section

RPSC hosts an “Answer Keys” section on its official website, where answer keys for various exams are published. 

When the AE / AEN answer key is released, it will be listed in that section. It may appear under “Model / Provisional Answer Key” or as a “Final Answer Key” link, often labelled by exam name and year.

Currently, RPSC’s Answer Keys page shows answer keys for other exams, showing that this is the standard repository for such documents.

Steps to Download RPSC AE / AEN Answer Key 2025 PDF

Here is the likely step-by-step procedure (based on how RPSC publishes keys for other exams):

1. Visit RPSC’s Official Website
   Go to rpsc.rajasthan.gov.in.

2. Locate the “Answer Keys” Section
   Look in the “Information for Candidates”, “Answer Keys / Model Answers” or a direct “Answer Keys” menu link.

3. Find the AE / AEN 2025 Key Link
   Once the key is published, it will be listed under the name “Assistant Engineer / AEn 2025 – Provisional / Model Answer Key” (or similar).

4. Click the Key Link
   The PDF will open in your browser or in a PDF viewer.

5. Download / Save the PDF Copy
   Use the download icon or “Save As” option to store a local copy for cross-checking later.

6. Check for Objection / Challenge Option
   If RPSC allows objections, there will be a link or notification alongside the key (often called “Raise Objections / Challenge Answer Key”).

7. Compare Answers & Estimate Score
   Use the key to check your responses and calculate your tentative score (applying the marking scheme).

8. Watch for Final Key Release
   After review of objections, RPSC may publish the finalised answer key. Download that too for final reference.

When Will the AE Answer Key Be Released?

• The answer key is typically released shortly after the exam — within a few days or a week.

• Because RPSC needs time to digitize responses and prepare keys, there is often a lag between exam date and key publication.

• Until then, candidates may see “Answer Keys Coming Soon” notices on the RPSC website in the Answer Keys section.

How to Estimate Your Score Using the Answer Key

Once you have the key:

1. Match your responses with correct answers given in the key.

2. Count the correctly answered questions.

3. Apply the marking scheme (for example, +4 for correct, –1 for incorrect, or whatever scheme RPSC uses for that exam).

4. Calculate your raw score = (Number of correct × 4) – (Number of wrong × 1) (if negative marking)

5. Check official cut off / qualifying marks (once released) to see if your marks are safe or in margin.

6. Adjust for wrong / unattempted accordingly — do not count them as correct.

Important: Use the final answer key (not provisional) for any official estimate, as some answers may get revised after objections.

Example / Sample Answer Key Used by RPSC

RPSC has already published keys for other exams (like Asst. Engineer – earlier years). For example:

• A final answer key for Assistant Engineer – 2023 (Mechanical) was published by RPSC. RPSC

• Also, a model G.K & Others answer key was published on 23 March 2025 by RPSC. RPSC

These demonstrate the format and naming conventions RPSC uses — the AE 2025 key will follow similar style (PDF, with question numbers and correct option codes).

Things to Know / Tips & Precautions

• Only use official sources — do not rely on third-party sites posting “leaked keys” — they may be inaccurate.

• Save both provisional and final keys — in case your objection is accepted and the correct answer is updated.

• Document your objections with evidence — if challenging, use textbooks, reliable sources, or past rulings to support your challenge.

• Check for subject-wise keys — compulsory and optional papers might have separate keys.

• Be mindful of deadlines — the objection window (if allowed) is usually limited (2–3 days).
