The merit list uses only the marks from Part II (General Studies) and Part III (subject), which together carry 120 marks. Part I (language) is only qualifying, so it is not counted. BPSC releases a separate cut-off for every class level, subject, category and gender (female candidates have a separate reserved share).
BPSC TRE Minimum Qualifying Marks
You must reach these marks to be considered for the merit list. The final cut-off is usually much higher.
| Category | Minimum % | Marks out of 120 |
|---|---|---|
| General (Unreserved) | 40% | 48 |
| Backward Class (BC) | 36.5% | 43.8 |
| Extremely Backward Class (EBC) | 34% | 40.8 |
| SC, ST, women, PwD | 32% | 38.4 |
