How is the RRB ALP Cut Off Decided?

The cut off is decided RRB-wise and category-wise, based on the vacancies and the marks of the candidates.
Candidates are shortlisted from CBT 1 for CBT 2, and from CBT 2 for the CBAT, in a fixed multiple of the vacancies.
Marks are normalised because the CBT is held in many shifts.
Every wrong answer carries a negative mark of 1/3.
If candidates get equal marks, the older candidate gets the higher merit.

Factors Affecting the Cut Off

Number of vacancies in the chosen RRB and category.
Number of candidates who applied and appeared.
Difficulty level of the shift (normalisation is applied).
Category of the candidate (UR, SC, ST, OBC-NCL, EWS, ESM, PwBD).
Preference of candidates for the RRB.
