Rajasthan CET Senior Secondary Cut-off 2026

The Rajasthan CET Senior Secondary cut-off decides who clears the screening test and who gets shortlisted for later recruitment stages. There are two ideas to keep apart: the minimum qualifying marks that make you eligible, and the merit position that departments use when they shortlist candidates for a post.

No result has been declared for the 2026 cycle, because the exam is scheduled for 1 to 3 December 2026 (tentative). This page therefore does not quote a cut-off for 2026. Check results and notices on rssb.rajasthan.gov.in.

Qualifying marks reported for this cycle

These figures come from news reports of the notification and are tentative. Other categories and persons with disabilities follow the Board's rules, which the sources used did not detail. Confirm them in the official notification.

Why the qualifying mark is not the real target

Clearing the minimum only keeps you in the pool. Departments typically shortlist from CET merit, so the score that matters is the one that places you high enough for the post you want. A verified post-wise cut-off from earlier cycles was not available in the sources used, so treat any number you see on other websites as unconfirmed unless it cites an RSSB result notice.

What affects the cut-off

• Paper difficulty: A tougher paper lowers the scores of most candidates and the cut-off with them.

• Number of applicants: A larger candidate pool raises competition for the same posts.

• Vacancies in each department: Posts with many vacancies usually go deeper into the merit list.

• Category and domicile: Reservation rules change the effective cut-off for each group.

How to set your target score

Cut-offs change every year with difficulty, vacancies and the number of applicants. Treat last year's figures as a benchmark only, and aim for a clear margin above them rather than a bare pass.

1. Start from the qualifying mark: Treat 96 out of 240 as the floor, not the goal.

2. Add a safety margin: Aim well above the floor in your mocks, so that a harder paper still leaves you comfortable.

3. Track accuracy with negative marking: A wrong answer costs one-third of the marks, so net score is what counts.

4. Watch your weakest subject: A very low score in one area drags the total even when others are strong.
