NEW DELHI, October 3 — The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) on Saturday published the tentative answer keys along with candidate response sheets for the Combined Graduate Level Examination (Tier-I) 2026 on its official website (ssc.gov.in), enabling participating examinees to inspect their performance across multi-shift Computer-Based Tests.
According to the Commission's examination directive, candidates who appeared in the Tier-I examination administered in September 2026 can log in to the integrated candidate portal using their registration credentials to verify evaluated responses. The Commission has activated an online objection tracker window remaining open until October 8, 2026 (6:00 PM), allowing examinees to challenge specific answer keys upon payment of a non-refundable administrative processing fee of ₹100 per challenged question.
The Commission underscored that all submitted representations will be adjudicated by subject expert panels before final answer keys and category-wise normalized cut-off scores are compiled. The Tier-I score serves strictly as a qualifying screening gateway to determine eligibility for the comprehensive multi-module Tier-II Computer-Based Examination.
The statistical mechanics of the score normalization formula utilized by the Staff Selection Commission across multi-session computer-based testing, the tiered structural format of the SSC CGL recruitment examination, and procedural dispute-resolution timelines governing public competitive tests are essential operational knowledge areas for SSC and allied government job aspirants.
