Frequently Asked Questions
What is a cut-off mark in competitive exams?
Cut-off marks are the minimum qualifying marks that candidates must score to be eligible for the next stage of selection. Cut-offs vary by exam, year, category, and number of vacancies.
How is SSC CGL cut-off determined?
SSC CGL cut-off is determined based on total number of vacancies, number of candidates appeared, difficulty level of the exam, and previous year trends. It varies for each category (General, OBC, SC, ST, EWS).
Do cut-offs change every year?
Yes, cut-offs fluctuate yearly based on exam difficulty, number of candidates, and vacancies. They typically increase when exams are easier and decrease when harder.
What is normalization in cut-off calculation?
Normalization is used in multi-shift exams to ensure fairness across different difficulty levels. It adjusts scores so candidates from all shifts compete on equal footing. SSC and Railways use normalization.
Can I qualify if my score is slightly below the expected cut-off?
If your score is within 2-3 marks of previous year cut-off, you have a moderate chance. However, for safety, aim for 5-10 marks above expected cut-off considering yearly variations.
How accurate are these cut-off predictions?
These are based on previous 3 years official cut-offs. Actual cut-offs depend on current year exam and vacancies. Use this as a reference, not an absolute prediction.
Does category certificate affect cut-off benefits?
Yes, you must have a valid category certificate (OBC-NCL, SC, ST, EWS) at the time of document verification. Without valid certificate, General category cut-off applies.
What if I score exactly the cut-off marks?
Scoring exactly the cut-off marks usually qualifies you, but final selection depends on your rank in the merit list and number of vacancies. Higher scores ensure better chances.
