RRB NTPC

RRB NTPC mock test is released by the examination authority. Candidates can attempt the mock tests by logging with the required credentials. Attempting such tests help them to know the weak areas. 

RRB NTPC cut off is calculated based on the normalised scores. This process is followed to adjust the difficulty level of questions since the exam is conducted in multiple sessions. The scores are normalised using the equi-percentile method. For eg: If the negative marking is 1/3 and candidates have answered 80 questions, out of which 12 were wrong, then the raw score will be 80-12-12 * (1/3) = 64. Therefore, 64 is the raw score.
