Selection Process of RRB NTPC Vacancy
The selection for RRB NTPC posts involves multiple stages, including the 1st Stage Computer Based Test (CBT), 2nd Stage CBT, Typing Skill Test or Computer Based Aptitude Test (as applicable), followed by Document Verification and Medical Examination. Candidates are shortlisted strictly based on merit at each stage.
1st Stage Computer Based Test (CBT)
The 1st Stage CBT is a screening test. It consists of 100 objective-type questions to be completed in 90 minutes, with a total of 100 marks. Negative marking is applied at 1/3 mark for each wrong answer. The subjects include Mathematics, General Intelligence and Reasoning, and General Awareness. The questions are generally in conformity with the educational standards prescribed for the posts.
The normalized score of the 1st Stage CBT is used to shortlist candidates for the 2nd Stage CBT. Minimum eligibility percentages for various categories are UR-40%, EWS-40%, OBC (NCL)-30%, SC-30%, ST-25%, with a relaxation of 2 marks for PwBD candidates if required.
2nd Stage Computer Based Test (CBT)
