The High Court of Rajasthan conducts the Rajasthan Judicial Service (Civil Judge Cadre) Preliminary Examination as an objective test. The preliminary paper carries 100 multiple-choice questions for 100 marks, with a duration of 2 hours (120 minutes). Like Madhya Pradesh, the RJS preliminary exam has no negative marking. Cutoff scores generally hover between 75 and 85 marks, requiring high precision and comprehensive syllabus coverage across substantive and procedural law.

The paper allocates 70% weightage (70 questions) to Law and 30% weightage (30 questions) to Language Proficiency (15 questions in Hindi and 15 questions in English). The law syllabus aligns with the subjects prescribed for Mains Law Paper-I and Law Paper-II, encompassing the Constitution of India, Code of Civil Procedure, Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, Indian Contract Act, Transfer of Property Act, Specific Relief Act, Limitation Act, and state-specific enactments like the Rajasthan Rent Control Act.

RJS law questions require verbatim familiarity with Bare Act text. Examiners frequently test statutory provisos, exception clauses, and numerical limits, such as limitation periods and procedural time frames. In Constitutional Law, focus remains on fundamental rights, Directive Principles, Union and State judiciary, and amendment procedures under Article 368. Contract and property law questions routinely reproduce illustrations from Sections 10 through 30 of the Contract Act and Section 58 of the TPA.

Candidates preparing for RJS must combine rigorous Bare Act memorization with timed mock practice. Attempting all 100 questions is mandatory, and securing at least 60 to 65 marks in the law segment provides the safety margin necessary to clear the preliminary cutoff.
