Does the total form fill up decide the RRB ALP Cut-Off?

No. The number of applications alone does not decide the RRB ALP cut-off. The cut-off can be affected by:

  • The number of candidates who actually appear
  • The difficulty level of the examination
  • The performance of candidates
  • Category-wise vacancies
  • RRB-wise vacancies
  • Normalisation across different shifts
  • The number of valid applications
  • The qualifying rules for each examination stage

The registration figures provide an early estimate of competition, but the actual selection level will become clearer only after CBT 1 is conducted.
