The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) conducts the CHSL exam every year for posts such as LDC, JSA, DEO, and PA. Based on previous year trends, vacancy patterns, exam difficulty, and competition level, experts have estimated the expected SSC CHSL cut off for 2025 and 2026.

⚠️ These are expected ranges, not official cut-offs. Final marks may vary due to normalization and vacancies.

📌 Skill Test / Typing Test does not carry marks but is mandatory.

The SSC CHSL cut-off is decided stage-wise, depending on performance and eligibility criteria:

1. Tier 1 Cut Off
2. • Determined based on marks obtained in the Computer-Based Test
   • Used to shortlist candidates for Tier 2
3. Tier 2 Qualifying Criteria
4. • Candidates must score at least 33% marks to qualify
   • Only qualifying in Tier 2 makes a candidate eligible for Skill/Typing Test
5. Post-wise Cut Off
6. • SSC releases separate cut-offs for each post (LDC/JSA, DEO, etc.)
   • Category-wise cut-off is published under every post

Understanding previous year cut-offs helps candidates:

• Set realistic score targets
• Analyze competition trends
• Plan exam strategy effectively

SSC determines cut-offs based on:

• Total number of candidates
• Difficulty level of the exam
• Vacancies announced category-wise
• Normalization of marks

1. Number of vacancies released by SSC
2. Difficulty level of Tier-1 paper
3. Normalization across multiple shifts
4. Increase in number of serious aspirants
5. Post preference (DEO > LDC/JSA)
