Is there a Sectional cut-off in the SBI Clerk Exam 2025?

No, there is no sectional cut-off in the Prelims and Mains Examination; only overall cut-off marks are considered while determining the merit list of candidates. However, the overall cut off may vary for different states due to difficulty level, normalisation process, number of vacancies, etc.

SBI Clerk Cut Off Calculation and Normalisation

SBI conducts the Clerk Mains exam in multiple shifts with varying difficulty levels, so it uses a normalisation process to adjust scores and ensure fairness for all candidates, regardless of their exam shift.

How does it affect the SBI Clerk Mains Cut off?

The final cut-off is determined using normalised scores rather than raw marks. This means that even if you attempt fewer questions than someone in another shift, your score could still be higher after normalisation if your shift was more difficult. Focus on accuracy and smart attempts rather than high attempts to ensure fairness across all exam shifts.
