💡 Expert Tip

Since the written test carries no negative marking, attempt every question in the Computer Based Test rather than leaving any blank — there is nothing to lose by taking an educated guess here. For the 15 experience marks, only service in Govt./Semi-Govt./Public Sector institutions or hospitals with a minimum of 500 beds complying with EPF/ESI norms will be counted, so if your prior employer does not meet this bed-strength or compliance criteria, that experience may not fetch you marks even if genuine. Keep your original Study and Residence Certificates for classes 7th to 10th ready in scanned format, since Andhra Pradesh nativity proof is mandatory for every applicant regardless of category, and applications without it will be rejected outright.
