Hii sir, Actually i Belong to general category and From EC branch, By atleast in howmany marks i can secure a seat .. Please provide some cutt off analysis if u have
Hello divyam,
Cut off depends upon many factors no one can decide it exactly. Factors like number of applicants, papers pattern n difficulty level, number of seats etc. these factors vary year by year so cut off also vary. In some RRB, 2014 recruitment cut off is 60% while in some 80% no one can say what would be it for 2015 recruitment.
Only one way to get success prepare in right direction and prepare hard.
