How to Determine the NABARD Grade A Cut Offs
The cut offs of the NABARD Grade A exams are determined by listing the scores secured by the last candidate out of the total number of qualified candidates for a particular stage of the exam.
For instance, the cut off for the NABARD Grade A prelims is basically the marks secured by the last person out of the total number of Prelims qualifiers, to make it through to the next stage of Phase 2.
Anyway, to talk more about the NABARD Grade A prelims cut offs, it is decided out a total of 100 marks by considering only the merit-based subjects of the Prelims round which have their own sectional cut offs.
The merit subjects of the Prelims paper are General Awareness [of 20 marks], Eco Soc. Issues (with focus on Rural India) [of 40 marks], Agriculture Rural Development with Emphasis on Rural India [of 40 marks].
As for the NABARD Grade A Mains paper, the cut off is out of a total of 200 marks, with sectional cut offs for the subjects of the Mains papers. The subjects being General English [of 100 marks], and Economic and Social Issues [Of 100 marks (50 marks of Objective, and 50 marks of Descriptive Type)].
Talking about the final NABARD Grade A cut offs, they are decided by taking the combined marks of the Mains and the interview round secured by the last candidate to qualify both rounds.
