Dear Readers,
SSC CHSL was conducted from 12th April to 19th April 2021 and then postponed for the remaining candidates due to a surge in Covid-19 cases all over the country. Now the commission has released exam dates on its official site, as per the notice SSC CHSL Tier 1 Exam will be held from 4th to 12th August 2021. Many of the candidates who are yet to appear in the examination or who have recently appeared in the examination must be curious about what should be their score to qualify for the SSC CHSL exam. It is fortuitous to gain a safe and high score in Pre Exam as the number of competitors is on the continuous rise while the number of vacancies is going to be scanty. As the Tier-I Computer Based Examination will be conducted in multiple shifts, marks scored by the candidates will be normalized. It is high time to think feasibly because scoring near the margin of cut-off won’t take you longer in the competition of getting a desirable job.
If you are determined and possess a conspicuous vision, just go through the below-provided data adjoining previous years’ SSC CHSL Tier-1 Cut off along with the overall cut-off of the final stage. It is enough to let you know that Tier-1 is the real game-changer as the majority of candidates think of the descriptive exams as an uphill task and lag behind in scoring adequate marks in Tier 2 that could pay for the performance of Tier-1.
So, one must be aware of the SSC CHSL Previous Years cut off and how it differs over the years. Knowing the previous years’ cut-off surely helps in determining the possibility in the future and the extra efforts one needs to put in the exam preparation in order to score well. This is hopefully a safe score to lead you ahead in the race and thus having endowed a clear mindset to prepare for Tier-2 instead of wasting much time in anticipating first and then being out of the race eventually. This data will definitely make a clear vision for the candidates about the score they need to score to qualify for the examination.
