⚠️ LATEST UPDATE: While the exam was originally scheduled for late February, the Commission issued an official notice on March 2, 2026, announcing a postponement for certain shifts due to administrative reasons. For shifts already completed, the answer key link is expected to be activated on the official portal within 3 to 7 days after the final exam date.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Can I challenge an answer if I find it incorrect in the tentative key?

A: Yes! SSC provides a window (usually 3–4 days) to raise objections. You will need to pay a fee of ₹100 per question challenged. If your objection is found valid, the fee is typically refunded.

Q: What is the difference between Raw Marks and Normalised Marks?

A: Raw marks are what you calculate from the answer key. Since the exam is held in multiple shifts, SSC uses a Normalisation Formula to account for varying difficulty levels. Your final result and merit list will be based on these Normalised Marks.

Q: Will I get a physical copy of my response sheet?

A: No. You must download the digital copy from the website during the active window. Once the objection period ends, the link is deactivated and you cannot download your response sheet again.
