RRB NTPC 2025 Expected Cutoff: Zone-wise and Category Trends

  


I took the liberty to design a prompt and make a calculate the ongoing RRB NTPC exam, tough there is a 65% reduction of posts form previous year, there is also a chance that the cutoff this year might have a steep inflation as there are 1.21 crore total students that have filled the form and in any case there is a good probability that near about 85-90% students might give this exam ( the attendance is always little less than the forms filled) which translates somewhere between 1.2 crore to 1.08 crore. Which is nearly 310 people per post. Here are the overall details

Total Graduate-Level Posts

Applicants (Graduate Level)

Estimated Appearances (85%)

Applicant-to-Post Ratio

1 seat per ~310 applicants

Appeared-to-Post Ratio

1 seat per ~264 candidates

 

The vacancy has many posts from TTE (train Ticket Examiner) to office posts, from level 5 to level 7 (for graduates) and lower for non-graduate posts. With the help of AI, I happen to have created an anauto-updatingg form that will update the RRB NTPC (graduate) positions that have started from 5th June 2025, and the last exam is 26th June 2025. Which means that 20 days, 3 shifts each day, there is a good chance that the papers will be of varied difficulty levels.

So what have we done here? Well, on various platforms, there are students who report their good attempts and accuracy level, some to official channels like online testing agencies, and some on various social media platforms. The script I have written works in this way.

1.      Takes open-source available data from various platforms and then assimilates it in one place. On the basis of this data, the algorithm determines the number of good attempts (in one day) and accuracy levels. And creates a data set

2.      Then the algorithm compares this with the previous trends of the marks and cutoff marks in the last 5 exams, which gives a clear picture of the trend. All criteria are taken into consideration.

3.      Observing the trend of the past 5 years and then considering every other factor, the calculation is changed.

4.      The numbers change every 24 hours, and that will happen till the 26th of June 2025 (which is the last exam).

This will give a clear picture of what to expect from the paper and what constitutes good attempts, and the accuracy level one needs to have in order to achieve a safe score.
