SSC Rolls Out Exam Reforms With Post-Test Paper Access, Lower Challenge Fees, Re-Exam on Oct 14

The shift prioritizes transparency for candidates after months of technical failures.

Overview

  • Candidates will be able to view their question papers, responses and correct answers after taking SSC exams, with access restricted during ongoing multi-shift sessions.
  • Answer-key challenges are permitted at Rs 50 per question, and the official challenge window opens on October 15.
  • A targeted re-exam on October 14 has been scheduled for candidates whose disruptions were validated, with individual notifications to be sent by email and SMS.
  • Officials said 18,920 submissions on the feedback portal were cross-checked with digital footprints, and some suspected remote-access attempts were detected.
  • Integrity safeguards now in force include Aadhaar-based authentication, secure digital-vault delivery of papers, equi-percentile normalisation and engagement of specialised IT agencies.
