📚 Exam pattern refresher (why your score looks the way it does)
CBT-1 (Graduate): 100 Qs / 90 mins — GA (40), Math (30), Reasoning (30); 1/3rd negative marking. (As notified in the CEN & reiterated by outlets.)
CBT-2 (Graduate): 120 Qs / 90 mins — same sections, deeper difficulty. Shortlisting for later stages typically at fixed multiples of vacancies (e.g., ~15× for CBT-2; ~8× for Skill/CBAT) as per the CEN.
⚖️ Normalization explained (student-friendly)
RRB uses multi-shift normalization to ensure fairness. Earlier official notices describe percentile/standard-deviation methods for multi-session exams; your normalized marks (often to multiple decimal places) appear on the scorecard.
In short: if your shift was tougher, normalization adjusts up relative to the base shift; if it was easier, it adjusts down. Always refer to your final normalized score for cut-off comparisons.
📊 Expected cut-off ranges (indicative)
Official cut-offs will be published with the result. Media/live blogs note that cut-off + scorecards are likely to be released alongside the result. Until then, use these broad, non-official ranges (based on recent cycles + difficulty feedback) as a rough yardstick:
| Zone (examples) | UR | OBC | SC | ST | EWS |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ahmedabad | 75–82 | 70–78 | 60–70 | 55–65 | 68–75 |
