Civil Service Exam Score Calculator

CSC sets the passing rating at 80% for both the Professional and Subprofessional levels of the Career Service Examination. The 80% is based on the total raw score across all subtests, not per subtest.

The next CSC Pen-and-Paper Test (PPT) is scheduled for August 9, 2026 for both Professional and Subprofessional levels. CSC also runs the Computerized Examination (COMEX) in rolling sittings across the year. Check csc.gov.ph for the latest advisory and your exact testing centre.

No. The CSC Career Service Examination does not deduct points for wrong answers, so unanswered questions are scored the same as wrong ones. Always fill in every answer — educated guesses are strictly better than blanks.

The Professional level has 170 items across Verbal, Numerical, Analytical, and General Information, and gives eligibility for second-level government positions (anything requiring a bachelor's degree). The Subprofessional level has 165 items across Verbal, Numerical, Clerical Ability, and General Information, and gives eligibility for first-level positions (clerks, encoders, other clerical roles, drivers, support staff).

Yes. CSC allows unlimited retakes. There's no waiting period beyond the next available sitting, and your fail history doesn't carry over. About 25-30% of takers clear the 80% bar each cycle on first try; many pass on the second or third attempt after targeted review.

Yes — enter your mock test scores to track your readiness. Most Super Tutor students aim to consistently hit above 85% on full-length mocks before sitting the real exam, to give themselves a cushion above the 80% cut. The calculator also flags your weakest subtest so you know exactly where to put your next review hour.

It's based on your raw score as a percentage of total items, not a percentile against other takers. CSC standardises raw scores using a published conversion table — what you see as your CSC rating is the converted score, but the threshold remains 80% of the maximum.
