SSC CPO rank estimator
Enter your expected Paper 1 marks to get an estimated percentile and rank. This is a scenario tool: you can change the number of candidates, the shortlist size and the cut-off it is anchored on, and see how the rank moves.
It is clearly an estimate. The first stage of SSC CPO has no published all-India rank, and your normalised score decides the real result.

Enter your marks and the cut-off you want to anchor on to see the estimate.
How this works. The last shortlisted candidate is placed at rank 28,065 out of 1,50,000. Scores are assumed to follow a bell curve, so every other mark gets a percentile and a rank from that one anchor. Rank = candidates appeared × (1 − percentile).
The shortlist ratio for the physical test and the attendance are assumptions. Edit them if you have the official figures.
Old cut-offs were out of 200 and are scaled to this paper by percentage. The 2026 pattern is new, so the real distribution may look different.
This is a planning estimate. The official body does not publish all-India ranks, and your normalised score decides the real outcome. For a go or no-go call, use the score calculator and the cutoffs page.
SSC CPO rank estimator: FAQs
Does the board publish an all-India rank?
The boards publish result lists and scorecards, but they do not generally publish an all-India rank for the first stage. So any rank shown here is an estimate, not a fact.
How is the rank worked out?
You give the number who appear, the number shortlisted and the score of the last shortlisted candidate. The estimator places that candidate at the shortlist rank, assumes scores follow a bell curve, and reads your percentile off it. Rank is candidates appeared times one minus the percentile.
Which numbers are assumptions?
The shortlist ratio for the physical test and the attendance are assumptions. Edit them if you have the official figures. Old cut-offs were out of 200 and are scaled to this paper by percentage. The 2026 pattern is new, so the real distribution may look different.
What should I use this for?
For planning and motivation, for example to see how many marks move your rank by thousands. For a go or no-go call, compare your marks with past cut-offs in the score calculator.
