Cut Off

In order to be called out for the next round of the selection process, the aspirant must make sure that they have secured marks equivalent to or above a particular margin. This margin is usually decided by the Kerala Public Service Commission and is commonly known as “Cut-off”. These cut-offs are decided on the basis of varying factors like the total number of students appearing for the examination, the level of criticality and difficulty of the examinations, the total number of vacancies for a respective post, among other crucial factors. The cut-off for these examinations is declared on the official website of the Kerala Public Service Commission. It is the minimum qualifying or passing marks for the aspirants, decided by the examination board. 

During the preparation for the Storekeeper in Kerala State Co-operative Apex Societies examination, the aspirant must check the previous year’s cut-off sheets- just so they can hold a grasp of the whole margin requirements for qualifications. This will help the aspirant to get an estimate of the current year cut-off list. Each post under the Kerala Public Service Commission has different cut-offs, based on different factors. 

In the year 2021, more than 11 lakhs of people appeared for the examinations. These exams were conducted between February and March of the same year. However, the results were delayed due to the pandemic variances. The cut-off list for the same examination was out before the declaration of the results. The cut-off for the Storekeeper in Kerala State Cooperative Apex Societies under the Kerala Public Service Commission was 93. 249. The aspirants who have secured this or above this in the examinations were included in the eligibility list for the further selection process. 

We must also keep in mind that the cut-off marks for various reserved communities of the society were lowered comparatively, in order to make sure that these communities are well represented in the selection process.
