SSC CHSL Tier 2 Cut Off 2026: Computer Knowledge Test (CKT) Qualifying Marks
The Computer Knowledge Test (CKT), out of 45 marks, is the qualifying-stage cut off for Tier 2. Candidates must clear this stage before their Tier 1 + Tier 2 combined score is considered for department-wise allocation. The typing test (for LDC/JSA posts) and the Data Entry Skill Test, or DEST (for DEO/DEO Grade A posts), remain qualifying in nature and are assessed on a maximum-error basis rather than marks.
SSC CHSL Tier 2 Cut Off 2026: Department-Wise and Post-Wise Marks
SSC CHSL Tier 2 cut off is declared separately for each department/post code (D54, D55, D56, and L01 to L53). The table below lists, for each code and category, the number of vacancies, seats allocated, the last (cut off) candidate’s Total Marks, Section-I of Tier-II marks, Tier-I marks, and date of birth used for tie-breaking. A dash (-) means the seat in that category was not filled or no candidate was allocated in that round.

Factors Affecting SSC CHSL Tier 2 Cut Off 2026
- Number of candidates who appeared: Higher turnout in Tier 2 generally pushes cut off marks up.
- Difficulty level of the Tier 2 paper: An easier Computer Knowledge Test paper tends to raise the qualifying cut off, while a tougher paper lowers it.
- Number of vacancies per post and department: Departments and posts with fewer seats usually see higher cut off marks due to tighter competition.
- Category-wise reservation: Cut off marks vary significantly by category (UR, OBC, EWS, SC, ST, ESM, OH, HH, VH, PwD-Others) as per government reservation norms.
- Previous year cut off trends: SSC’s cut off pattern from prior cycles is a useful reference, though it is not a guarantee of the current year’s figure.
- Tier 1 performance of the candidate pool: Since final allocation combines Tier 1 and Tier 2 performance, strong Tier 1 scores among qualifiers can influence the final cut off.
