Cut off marks for remaining zones like Ajmer, Bilaspur, Siliguri, Ranchi, Gorakhpur, Ahmedabad, Kolkata, Malda, Mumbai, Patna, Secunderabad, Thiruvananthapuram, and Bangalore are available on the respective RRB regional websites.
One important thing to note — the marks shown in the scorecard are normalized scores, not raw marks. Normalization is applied because the exam was conducted over multiple shifts, and question paper difficulty can vary between sessions. The normalization formula is applied by RRB to ensure fairness across all candidates.
What Happens After the RRB NTPC CBT 1 Result 2026?
Clearing CBT 1 is a big achievement, but it is just the beginning. The full selection process for RRB NTPC Graduate Level posts looks like this:
CBT 1 → CBT 2 → CBAT / Typing Skill Test (post-specific) → Document Verification → Medical Examination → Final Merit List and Allotment
Here is what you need to know about each stage going forward:
CBT 2 Exam is scheduled for 10th July 2026 and will be conducted in online mode across various exam centres in two shifts. The admit card for CBT 2 will be released on 6th July 2026, so keep checking the official website from that date. The CBT 2 syllabus covers the same three subjects as CBT 1 — Mathematics, General Intelligence and Reasoning, and General Awareness — but at a higher difficulty level. It is also post-specific, meaning the weightage may differ based on the post you are applying for.
CBAT (Computer-Based Aptitude Test) is applicable specifically for the Station Master post. If you are aiming for Station Master, you need to clear this additional test after CBT 2.
Typing Skill Test is applicable for posts like Junior Account Assistant cum Typist, Senior Clerk cum Typist, and Senior Time Keeper.
Document Verification and Medical Examination are the final stages before the merit list is prepared and candidates are allotted posts.
Tips to Prepare for RRB NTPC CBT 2 – Start Right Now
You have roughly four weeks before CBT 2 on 10th July. That is not a lot of time, but it is enough if you start today. Here is a practical approach:
Go through the official CBT 2 syllabus carefully and understand which topics carry more weight for your specific post. The difficulty level in CBT 2 is noticeably higher than CBT 1, so do not underestimate the preparation required.
Solve previous year question papers from RRB NTPC CBT 2 to understand the type of questions asked and the level of difficulty expected. This is perhaps the most effective way to calibrate your preparation in a short period.
Give special attention to General Awareness, particularly Current Affairs from the last 6 to 12 months, since this section can swing your score significantly in either direction.
Take at least two to three mock tests per week and analyze your performance after each test. Focus on improving speed and accuracy simultaneously — both matter in a competitive railway exam.
For Mathematics, focus on topics like Number Systems, Profit and Loss, Time and Work, Simple and Compound Interest, and Data Interpretation, as these appear frequently in CBT 2.
