What Your Result Means – Next Steps
If you are shortlisted for PET/PST:
You have cleared the Computer Based Examination and are now eligible to appear for the Physical Efficiency Test (PET) and Physical Standard Test (PST). This is a provisional status – final selection depends on clearing PET/PST, document verification, and no disqualifications during the process. Download your result PDF immediately and note the PET/PST schedule when it is announced on the official website. Begin physical preparation at once if you are not already doing so.
If you are not on the shortlist:
You did not meet the normalised marks threshold for your category in Session-II of the CBE. Review the category-wise cutoff marks (available in the result annexure on ssc.gov.in) to understand the gap between your score and the cutoff. SSC will open applications for the next MTS cycle in 2027. Keep your admit card, scorecard, and response sheet for reference when applying next time.
