CEN 02/2026 · Technician Grade 1 Signal only · Notice dated 15 October 2026

RRB Technician Grade 1 & Grade 3 Marks Calculator: +1 and −⅓

Raw score = Correct answers − (Wrong answers ÷ 3)

A wrong answer loses exactly one-third of a mark. Unattempted questions score zero. Keep the fraction through the calculation and round only the displayed total.

Review your correct, wrong and unanswered counts against the official response sheet. Any later key correction or special treatment of questions is governed by the relevant RRB notice, not by this standard worked example.

RRB Technician Grade 1 & Grade 3 Rank Predictor

Grade 1 Signal and Grade 3 have separate comparison pools. The response sheet determines the grade and cycle; check the detected exam name in the result. Enter the RRB you applied to. Your home state, exam centre and Railway zone do not determine your applied board. RRB-wise and category cards are separate comparisons, not a combined official board/category rank.

Comparison ranks can change as submissions arrive. There is no meaningful current-cycle rank until enough valid response sheets are available. RRB decides final merit using its official rules, normalization, post/category vacancies, documents and medical fitness.

RRB Technician Grade 3 Exam Pattern: 100 Questions

Duration: 90 minutes; 120 minutes for candidates eligible for a scribe under the notice. The section distribution is indicative. The standard marking is +1 correct, −⅓ wrong and zero unattempted.

Duration: 90 minutes; 120 minutes for candidates eligible for a scribe under the notice. The subject distribution is indicative. Marking is +1 for a correct answer, −⅓ for a wrong answer and zero for unattempted questions.

Select Your Applied RRB: All 21 Recruitment Boards

Select the same board as your application. These are recruitment boards, rather than a list of Indian Railway zones.

For example, a candidate who applied to RRB Patna selects Patna even if their CBT centre was in another state. Use the same board when reviewing your RRB-wise participant rank.

Technician Answer Key 2026: Grade 1 & Grade 3 Response Sheets

1. Choose the correct official link above: Grade 3 or Grade 1 Signal.
2. Sign in on the official RRB service and open the question paper, responses and answer-key view. Check the grade, CEN and your details.
3. Copy the complete individual response-sheet URL. A common sign-in link or city slip is not your individual response sheet.
4. Paste the individual URL into the calculator, select category and applied RRB Board, then calculate.
5. Review the detected grade and cycle before using the score and participant ranks. If an HTML-upload option is offered after a fetch failure, upload your own saved response sheet.

Check the official answer-key notice and login for the actual opening/closing times, objection fee and evidence requirements. Submit challenges through the official objection facility. Calculating marks on QMaths does not lodge an objection. Save a personal copy of your response sheet before its viewing window closes.

Minimum Qualifying Marks, Normalization and Cut Off

A possible two-mark PwBD relaxation applies if there is a shortage as specified in the CEN. These are minimum eligibility thresholds, not forecast selection cut-offs. The official cut-off may differ by RRB, category and post.

The CEN states that marks from multiple shifts will be normalized. A raw response-sheet score is not the official normalized score. No numerical selection probability or unsupported cut-off band is promised here.
