What is a Good Score in RRB NTPC? Analyzing Previous Year Cutoffs

Published on July 13, 2025

You've calculated your RRB NTPC score, but what does it mean? Is it a "good" score?

A good score in the RRB NTPC exam heavily depends on your RRB Zone and your category. A score that is excellent for one zone might not be enough to clear the cutoff in another, more competitive zone. The best way to gauge your performance is to look at previous year cutoffs.
