Are you on the edge of your seat? The SSC CGL 2025 Tier 1 answer keys are set to be unveiled tonight! This is a pivotal moment for countless candidates who took the Combined Graduate Level exam. The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) will be making the answer keys available on their official website, ssc.gov.in. This applies to all papers from the SSC CGL 2024 exams, which spanned 15 days, from September 12th to 26th. A senior official has indicated that the results are expected to be released around 9 PM.
But here's where it gets interesting... Did you know that the SSC had to reschedule exams for roughly 8,000 candidates? This was due to a fire at a Mumbai center and instances of suspected malpractice.
So, how do you get your hands on the answer key? It's straightforward:
- Go to the official website: ssc.gov.in.
- Look for the 'Answer Key' link on the homepage.
- Check and download your answer key.
The SSC will also provide a 'Response Sheet' link, allowing you to review your marked answers.
Important Note: The SSC gives candidates the opportunity to challenge the answer keys. If you find any discrepancies, you can submit an online representation within a specified timeframe. There is a fee per question for this, and it's non-refundable.
Let's break down the exam itself: The Tier 1 exam consisted of objective-type, multiple-choice questions. The questions were available in both English and Hindi, with the exception of the English comprehension section. A negative marking of 0.50 was applied for each incorrect answer.
The final result will be based on the final answer key. If you make it through Tier 1, congratulations! You'll then proceed to the Tier 2 exam, which will include Paper 1 and Paper 2, potentially held on separate days or shifts.
