Checked 26 September 2026. From SSC’s CGLE 2024 and 2025 Tier-I result write-ups (with the 17.01.2025 revision and the 14.01.2026 corrigendum) and final-result write-ups (12.03.2025, 14.05.2026). 2023 figures are reported only — SSC’s 2023 write-ups were unreachable.
An SSC CGL “cut-off” is two different things. The Tier-I cut-off is the normalised Tier-I mark of the last candidate shortlisted for Tier-II, printed for each category in three separate lists. The final cut-off is the Tier-II mark of the last candidate selected for each post and category — and because posts are filled by merit and preference, there are as many final cut-offs as there are posts. This guide sets out both from SSC’s own write-ups for 2024 and 2025, flags what is only reported for 2023, and lets you compare a Tier-II score with each post’s last-selected mark.

SSC CGLE 2024 and 2025 result write-ups; totals and ranges are our arithmetic.
Where other pages get this wrong
The 2025 “all other posts” Tier-I UR cut-off is 136.40215 with 20,723 UR candidates, after SSC’s corrigendum of 14.01.2026.
Commonly published instead: 136.83159 and 20,035 — the figures printed in the original result write-up of 18.12.2025.
SSC corrigendum to the CGLE 2025 Tier-I result (14.01.2026): the List-3 table had an “inadvertent error”; the lists themselves were unchanged.

SSC CGLE 2025 Tier-I result (18.12.2025) as corrected on 14.01.2026; CGLE 2024 Tier-I result (05.12.2024) as revised with the additional result of 17.01.2025 (original UR 153.18981; the revision added 609 candidates, shown after the +). The 2025 total of 1,31,027 includes 29 withheld candidates; the published List-3 file has 1,30,998. Normalised marks out of 200. 2023: a single secondary source (PracticeMock), not checked against SSC.
*2023 reported, not from SSC. 2024–2025: SSC write-ups, rounded to two decimals.
The 2025 drop of about 16.6 marks for UR (our arithmetic) came in the first CGL Tier-I that SSC normalised by its June 2025 procedure, in a sitting moved from August to 12–26 September 2025 (notice of 03.09.2025) and partly re-held on 14 October 2025 for candidates hit by technical disruption. Several things changed at once, so the drop cannot be pinned on any one of them — and it is not a guide to 2026, which adds sectional timers and a month-long exam window (CGLE 2026 notice; schedule notice of 12.09.2026). The shortlist sizes are steadier: 1,65,849 on this list in 2024 after the January revision, 1,31,027 in 2025.

SSC CGLE 2025 and 2024 Tier-I result write-ups, Lists 1 and 2 (cut-off, with the number shortlisted in brackets). PwBD and ESM rows are in the write-ups. Candidates on these lists sit Paper-II as well as Paper-I; in 2026 a third list is added for AAO/AAcO (Paper-III).
The statistics lists close higher than the general list — 17 marks higher for UR in 2025 — but they are far shorter. On our arithmetic, 2025 shortlisted about 25 JSO candidates per JSO vacancy and 24 per SI vacancy, against about 9 per vacancy on the general list; 2024 was about 25, 33 and 10. A high cut-off with a long queue per seat is the price of a post that adds a 200-mark paper to the merit.
| List | 2025 shortlisted ÷ vacancies | 2024 shortlisted ÷ vacancies |
|---|---|---|
| Junior Statistical Officer | 6,196 ÷ 249 ≈ 24.9 | 18,436 ÷ 725 ≈ 25.4 |
| Statistical Investigator Gr-II | 2,781 ÷ 118 ≈ 23.6 | 2,833 ÷ 85 ≈ 33.3 |
| All other posts | 1,31,027 ÷ 14,751 ≈ 8.9 | 1,65,849 ÷ 17,364 ≈ 9.6 |
Our arithmetic from SSC’s shortlist totals and the vacancy split in the final-result write-ups (2025: JSO 249, SI 118, others 14,751; 2024: JSO 725, SI 85, others 17,364 by subtraction from 18,174).
Final cut-offs: the last-selected mark, post by post
The table below is the part of the result most candidates are really asking about. For each post it gives the Tier-II mark of the last candidate SSC selected in each of the five main categories. Read it with two cautions. First, a post’s mark reflects how candidates ranked it as much as how hard it was to get: a post many people prefer fills with higher scorers. Second, the 2024 marks carry five decimals and the 2025 marks are whole or half numbers — consistent with 2024 Tier-II being normalised across sittings and 2025 being a single sitting, though SSC does not say so. The ranks of the posts are the stable signal; the absolute numbers moved by 25–30 marks.

Our calculation over every non-statistics post code in SSC’s final-result tables (Section-I + Section-II, out of 390) — including small posts not in the 27-row table above, which is why a maximum here (e.g. 2024 UR 369.47) can exceed every row in that table. The lookup tool covers the five vertical categories only; ESM and PwBD last-selected marks are post-specific and summarised here.
The Tier-II shortlist bar for skill tests (2024)
In 2024 SSC also printed the Section-I + Section-II marks above which it evaluated the Computer Knowledge Test and DEST — in effect a Tier-II cut-off: UR 322.77, OBC 306.28, EWS 300.04, SC 285.46, ST 266.50, with 88,051 candidates. In 2025 it evaluated everyone above the qualifying floors instead (UR 54 and 63 in the two sections, OBC/EWS 45 and 52.5, others 36 and 42).

Practise it, don't just read it
Final cut-offs are Tier-II marks, and English (45 questions, 135 marks) is the largest single part of Section-II. The SSC CGL reading-comprehension quizzes target it.
The ProSyllabus SSC CGL library has topic quizzes on reading comprehension and on the Paper-II statistics topics — index numbers, time series, analysis of variance and statistical inference — the first quiz is free.
What was the SSC CGL 2025 Tier-I cut-off?
For the list of all other posts: UR 136.40215, OBC 130.36617, EWS 127.41630, SC 115.02843, ST 106.38576 (out of 200, normalised).
What was the SSC CGL 2024 Tier-I cut-off?
UR 152.97275 after the January 2025 revision (originally 153.18981), OBC 146.23244, EWS 141.82144, SC 126.42235, ST 111.85520.
Why was the 2025 SSC CGL cut-off lower?
SSC gives no reason; 2025 was the first equipercentile year and had a postponed, partly re-held Tier-I.
What is the SSC CGL JSO cut-off?
2025 Tier-I UR 153.46108; the last JSO selected in 2025 had 394.5 of 590 (UR).
Which SSC CGL post had the highest cut-off in 2025?
Among posts with a UR seat, Assistant Enforcement Officer (362 of 390), then ASO in Railways (350) and ASO in MEA (348).
Which SSC CGL post had the lowest cut-off in 2025?
Tax Assistant CBIC and UDC in BRO (UR 308), then Tax Assistant CBDT (309).
Does SSC publish a post-wise CGL cut-off?
Yes — the final-result write-up has the last-selected marks for each post and category.
Are Tier-I marks part of the SSC CGL final cut-off?
No — final cut-offs are Tier-II marks (Section-I + II, plus Paper-II/III where it applies).
How many were shortlisted for SSC CGL 2025 Tier-II?
1,40,004 across the three lists (6,196 JSO, 2,781 SI Gr-II, 1,31,027 others, the last including 29 withheld) — our sum.
Is the SSC CGL 2023 cut-off official?
The figures on this page for 2023 are reported by secondary sites; SSC’s 2023 write-ups could not be reached to check them.
