Factors Determining the SBI PO Cut off

This year, SBI has removed the sectional cut off & introduced sectional timing. This is going to affect the overall cut off. Marks obtained by the students in prelims will be arranged in descending order – 10 times the number of vacancies, students will be shortlisted for the mains.

  • The number of vacancies released this year.
  • Introduction of Sectional timing.
  • The difficulty level of the exam.

How SBI PO Cut Off is calculated?

The marks secured by the candidate in the SBI PO mains exam (out of 250 marks) is normalized to 75 marks while the marks secured in Group Exercises & Interview (out of 50 marks) is converted to 25 marks. A candidate should qualify both in the mains and GE/PI to be eligible to appear in the merit list. The final allotment will be based on the order of merit.
