Category-Wise Expected Cut-Off
The final cut-off will depend on the state, category, and number of applicants, but based on past trends, it may range as follows:
General (Unreserved): 85% to 95%
OBC: 80% to 90%
SC: 80% to 88%
ST: 79% to 85%
EWS: 75% to 83%

Higher marks in class 10 increase the chances of selection. In case of a tie, the decision will be based on age and other criteria.
This recruitment drive was extensive across the country, requiring only a 10th class pass, which led to a huge number of applications. The selection is entirely merit-based, relying solely on 10th class marks without any examination.
