SSC CPO Cut Off – Understanding the Selection Process
Before we get into CPO Cut Off, we would first take a look at the SSC CPO Selection Process. When you talk about the exam, there are three stages:
- SSC CPO Tier I exam
- Physical Test
- SSC CPO Tier 2 exam
Out of these three stages, Tier 1 and Tier 2 are the written exams and their combined marks are calculated for the selection. The SSC CPO Final Cut Off 2018 would be calculated on that. However, you need to clear the CPO cut off for Tier 1 and clear the physical test to appear for the Tier 2. The physical test is only of qualifying nature. You would not get any marks for it. The marks would only be there for Tier 1 and Tier 2
