The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) conducts the Central Police Organization (CPO) exam every year to recruit candidates for various posts such as Sub-Inspector (SI) in Delhi Police, Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) and Assistant Sub-Inspector (ASI) in CISF. The exam consists of four stages: Paper-I, Physical Standard Test (PST)/ Physical Endurance Test (PET), Paper-II and Detailed Medical Examination (DME).

The SSC CPO exam cut offs are the minimum marks that candidates need to score in each stage to qualify for the next stage and eventually for the final selection. The cut offs are decided by the SSC based on various factors such as the number of vacancies, the number of candidates, the difficulty level of the exam and the reservation norms.
The SSC CPO exam cut offs are released along with the result of each stage on the official website of SSC. Candidates can check the cut offs by logging in with their registration number and password. The cut offs are different for different categories and posts. Candidates who score equal to or more than the cut off marks are considered qualified and eligible for the next stage.
The SSC CPO exam cut offs for Paper-I and Paper-II are calculated out of 200 marks each, while the cut offs for PST/PET and DME are based on the physical and medical standards prescribed by the SSC. The final cut off is based on the aggregate marks obtained by the candidates in Paper-I and Paper-II.
The SSC CPO exam cut offs vary every year depending on the competition and performance of the candidates. However, candidates can get an idea of the expected cut offs by analyzing the previous year cut offs and trends. Here are some of the factors that affect the SSC CPO exam cut offs:
