The selection architecture for SSC CGL 2026 is distributed across two primary online evaluation tiers:
Candidates no longer have a flexible, free-flowing 60 minutes. SSC CGL 2026 enforces a strict 15-minute locked sectional timer for each segment. Once 15 minutes expire, the system automatically advances to the next section.
Subject | Questions | Marks | Sectional Timing (NEW) |
25 | 50 | 15 Minutes | |
25 | 50 | 15 Minutes | |
25 | 50 | 15 Minutes | |
25 | 50 | 15 Minutes | |
Total | 100 | 200 | 1 Hour |
Tier-II remains an objective-type online assessment. However, the 2026 guidelines introduce explicit time-caps within sessions.
⚠️ Note on Tier-II Marking: Unlike Tier-I, there is a strict penalty of 1 mark (1/3rd negative marking) for each wrong answer in Paper-I, Paper-II, and Paper-III.
With the onset of automated sectional timers, banking purely on conceptual knowledge will not guarantee success. Time management is now your ultimate filter.
Q1. Is there an active sectional timer in SSC CGL 2026 Tier-I?
Ans: Yes. Starting with the 2026 recruitment cycle, SSC has established a rigid 15-minute sectional countdown timer for each individual subject area in Tier-I.

Ans: The age calculation baseline has been systematically shifted to August 01, 2026.
