The CBE is over and its result is out. SSC does not publish a difficulty or good-attempts analysis, so this page sticks to official facts: how the paper is built, how marks were normalized, and how many candidates SSC shortlisted for the PE&MT/DV in each group.

Who made the PE&MT/DV shortlist

From SSC’s CBE result of 19 June 2026 (Lists I and II). Marks are normalized, out of 100, and exclude NCC/RRU bonus; “last shortlisted” is the score of the last candidate called in each category.

Group totals are our sums of SSC’s category-wise figures. In Male — Open, 5,035 EWS, 1,197 SC, 267 ST and 10,546 OBC candidates qualified at the UR standard; among women, 2,751 EWS, 758 SC, 128 ST and 5,422 OBC did.

SSC withheld 11 results for suspected malpractice and did not process 423 candidates found indulging in malpractice.

How marks are compared

Normalization, bonus & tie-breaks

Because the CBE ran in multiple shifts, SSC normalized marks using the formula in its notice of 2 June 2025, and those normalized marks were used for the shortlist. To be considered for the PE&MT/DV you needed at least 35 (UR), 30 (SC/ST/OBC/EWS) or 25 (ex-servicemen), without bonus; candidates were then shortlisted category-wise on merit, around 12 times the vacancies. NCC bonus (C 5%, B 3%, A 2% of maximum marks; not for ex-servicemen) and the RRU degree/PG diploma bonus (2–5%) are added only in the final result, for candidates who produce the documents at the PE&MT/DV. Equal scores are separated by Part A marks, then Part B, then the older candidate, then alphabetical order of name.
