Overview of SSC CHSL Tier 2 Examination 2026
The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) officially released the final cut off marks and the first round of tentative allocation for the Combined Higher Secondary Level (CHSL) Examination on 17th August 2026. These results follow the Tier 2 examination conducted on 10th April 2026. Candidates can now verify their selection status and department-wise allocation based on their Tier 1 scores, Tier 2 performance, and CKT qualifying status.

The Computer Knowledge Test (CKT) is a mandatory qualifying stage for Tier 2. Only candidates who meet the minimum threshold in the CKT are considered for final department-wise allocation. The Typing Test and Data Entry Skill Test (DEST) are also qualifying in nature, assessed based on maximum error percentages.

|---|---|---|---|
| UR | 13.5 | 7% | 7% |
| OBC/EWS | 11.25 | 10% | 7% |

Factors Influencing SSC CHSL Final Cut Off
