A total 149,139 candidates have qualified the Tier –I exam held from 27th August to 11th September 2016 on various centers. The commission has changed its parameters for assessing the candidates. They opted the following strategy from this year onwards.

- Tier-II: - There are 200 questions that are to be solved in 120 minutes based on computer. The exam dates are decided from 30th November to 2nd December, 2016.
- Tier-III: - It is a descriptive paper of Hindi/English scheduled on 15th January, 2017. It would be presented before the candidates with pen and paper.
- Tier-IV: - This test is set to test your Data entry skills and Computer proficiency and scheduled to test from 17th January, 2017 to 17th February, 2017.
There are no sectional cutoffs like Quant section, Reasoning section, English and GA do not have separate cutoffs. Now, Question arises that what is the cutoff and what parameters accounted for estimating it.
A cutoff is basically a parameter to select the candidates having higher scores/ Merit to appear in the subsequent recruitment process. It depends upon the exam difficulty level. More difficult exam results in low cutoffs and vice-versa. The authority may consider the following factors at the time of cutoff estimate.
- Previous year cutoffs
- Previous year recruitment statistics
- Exam difficulty level
- Number of vacancies
