Cut-Off Marks Trends (Reference)
The Normalized Cut-Off Marks (out of 90) provided below are based on the year 2024 for the post of Senior Personal Assistant & Personal Assistant (Post Code 801/24). These figures serve as a useful reference to understand the approximate score required in each category.
2024 Normalized Cut-Off Marks
| Category | Cut-Off Marks (2024) |
|---|---|
| UR (General) | 65.69 |
| EWS | 40.50 |
| OBC (Delhi) | 40.63 |
| SC | 40.55 |
| ST | 40.50 |
| PwBD | 41.21 |
Analysis for 2025
As observed from the 2024 cut-off data, there is a substantial gap between the cut-off marks of the General category and those of the reserved categories, with a difference of nearly 25 marks. For candidates in the reserved categories (EWS, OBC, SC, ST), the cut-off scores remain very close to the minimum qualifying threshold, indicating that clearing the baseline is often the primary challenge.Based on this trend, candidates can reasonably expect the 2025 cut-off for the UR category to fall within the 65–72 range (out of 90), or an equivalent percentage depending on the total marks awarded in the exam.
