    The Staff Selection Commission reduced the number of Tiers in the SSC CGL exam from 4 to 2 in 2022. The Commission reduced the number of tiers in the exam to expedite the SSC CGL recruitment process. The SSC CGL 2025 exam is also expected to follow suit.

    The SSC CGL exam is conducted online as a Computer-Based Test (CBT) in both tiers. The Commission conduct the exam at the designated exam centres and the regional websites of the Commission release the admit card, four days before the exam date.
