Combined Graduate Level examination was held in the month of August. Within two weeks of the last exam date, Staff Selection Commission has released answer keys for Tier I. Candidates can now use the official answer keys to know the correct answers to questions asked in exam, and also estimate marks they have obtained in CGLE. They can predict chances of qualifying the first round by comparing their score with CGL cut offs.
Last time the CGL cut off for Tier I stood at 137 for UR, 114 for SC, 103 for ST, 125 for OBC, 92 for ex-servicemen, 97 for OH, 20 for HH, and 68 for VH. Overall 149319 had qualified. This time the number of candidates who had registered to appear in CGL examination was more than 20 lakh. Only those who get marks equal to or more than cut off score will be eligible to appear in Tier II. As per result datesheet published by the Commission, SSC CGL 2017 Result for Tier I will be declared on October 31, 2017.
