Other Factors Determining the SSC CGL Cut-Off 2025
Above, we have explained the two most important factors (previous year cut-off marks and difficulty level) that determine the cut-off marks. Below, we have explained the rest of the factors that are responsible for determining the cut-off marks.
- Number of Vacancies: Vacancy is also one of the most important factors that is responsible for determining the cut-off marks. If the number of vacancies is high, then the cut-off will go high.
- Number of Candidates Appearing in the Exam: If the number of candidates appearing in the exam is less, the cut-off will be less because there will be less competition. As per the analysis, for many years, we can say that the number of candidates appearing in the exam is increasing, which results in an increase in the cut-off marks.
- Category of a Candidate: SSC releases category-wise cut-offs: General (UR), OBC, SC, ST, EWS, PwD (and sub-categories like VH, OH, HH, etc.). Each category has a different cut-off based on government reservation rules and the number of applicants.
- Accuracy and Level of Competition: SSC CGL is a highly competitive exam. If a large number of candidates attempt the paper with high accuracy, the overall cut-off tends to rise.
- Normalization of Marks: The Tier 1 exam is conducted in multiple shifts, to keep the fairness in the exam, SSC uses a normalization formula to adjust scores.
