How is SSC MTS Cut Off 2024 calculated?
SSC MTS Cut Off 2024 is calculated based on several key factors. These factors help in determining the minimum marks required for the candidates to qualify for the next stage of the selection process. Here’s how the cut-off is generally calculated:
- Difficulty level of exam- If the exam is tougher than previous years, the cut-off may be lower as fewer candidates will score higher marks. On the contrary, if the exam is relatively easy, the cut-off may increase.
- Previous year cut off- Past trends in cut-off scores are often used as a benchmark. If there were higher cut-offs in previous years, a similar trend can be expected unless other factors differ significantly.
- Normalization process- Since SSC MTS exam is conducted in multiple shifts, normalization process is applied to account for any variation in the difficulty level in different shifts. This ensures fair evaluation.
- Number of candidates- The higher the number of candidates appearing in the exam, the more competitive it becomes, leading to higher cut-offs.
- Number of Vacancies- The total number of vacancies for SSC MTS plays an important role. If the number of vacancies is more, the cut-off gets reduced, and vice versa.
