When Will the ESE 2020 Pre-Results Be Announced?
Every year, thousands of aspirants eagerly await the results of the Engineering Services Exam (ESE). Last year's ESE saw the exam conducted on January 6, 2019, with results announced a month later on February 28, 2019. In 2018, the ESE was held on January 7, with the results declared on February 17 of the same year. Based on these historical timings, it is reasonable to expect that this year's results, which were conducted on January 5, 2020, will likely be available around February 20, 2020.
Exam Timing Variations and Result Delays
Typically, UPSC declares exam results within 40-50 days post-exams. However, the ESE 2020 results have been delayed. This delay is not uncommon and is often due to several factors, including the need to accommodate new categories of candidates, such as the EWS (Economically Weaker Sections) category.
This year, UPSC has taken steps to ensure that the EWS category candidates can secure their seats by requesting eligible candidates to obtain EWS certification. This requirement added to the procedural delays, leading to a further extension of the result declaration date.
No Official Notification and Suggestions
As of the time of writing, there has been no official notification regarding the ESE 2020 pre-results. While it is true that the results were initially supposed to be announced by February 17, 2019, and again by March 2, 2019, such predictions are just guesses based on historical data and the current requirement for EWS certification.
As a trustworthy source, it is always advisable to keep an eye on the UPSC website for any official notifications. Till then, aspirants can use the historical data to make educated guesses, but firm announcements should be awaited with patience.
Conclusion
The ESE 2020 pre-results are eagerly awaited by millions of aspirants. While exact dates are uncertain, based on past trends and the current situation, the results are expected to be announced around February 20, 2020. Keep an eye on official UPSC notifications for the most accurate information.
