Questions related to SSC CGL

Have a question related to SSC CGL ?

Hello Vikas,

Yes, you can definitely apply for SSC CGL with the name as mentioned in your ID cards, but you need to ensure that all are the same across documents prior to the document verification stage. The name discrepancy may not lead to the cancellation of your application, but it can mean trouble during the document verification stage, if it does not match your 10th/matriculation certificate (which is often used as primary proof of name and DOB).

What to do:

  • Apply with the name according to your ID cards (as you only have 1 day remaining).
  • Initiate the process of correcting the name on either your ID documents (Aadhar, PAN, etc.) to the match the matric certificate or apply for a legal name change and publish in gazette (if you want to keep the name in ID cards).
  • You should also get supporting documents like affidavit and gazette publication ready by the time of document verification.

Hello Aspirant,

Yes, B.E. (Bachelor of Engineering) is considered as a Graduation (Bachelor’s Degree) for SSC CGL and all other government exams.

In the SSC CGL application form, you should select the option “Graduation” (or Bachelor’s Degree if given).

All the best for your SSC CGL preparation.


Hello Aspirant,

No, there won’t be any problem during SSC CGL document verification if you have:

Consolidated Marksheet (showing all semester-wise subjects and marks)

Provisional Degree Certificate

These are accepted for verification, especially if your final degree certificate is yet to be issued by IGNOU. Many universities, including IGNOU, issue provisional certificates until the original degree is awarded at convocation.

All the best for your SSC CGL journey.

I hope this helps.

Dear student,

Yes, as a Pharm.D (Doctor of Pharmacy) graduate, you are eligible to apply for the SSC CGL exam, as long as you meet the other basic criteria like age and nationality.

The minimum educational qualification for most SSC CGL posts is a Bachelor’s degree in any discipline from a recognized university. Even though Pharm.D is a professional doctorate, it is treated as a graduate-level qualification for SSC CGL purposes. So, you qualify academically for almost all general posts under SSC CGL.

However, some specific posts like Junior Statistical Officer (JSO) or Statistical Investigator do require a background in Mathematics or Statistics , either in your 12th standard or as a core subject in your degree. If you don’t meet that, you’ll have to skip those specific posts.

The general age limit for SSC CGL is between 18 and 32 years , depending on the post, with relaxations for reserved categories. You should check the exact age criteria for the post you're targeting in the official notification.

Also, a few posts like Inspector or Sub-Inspector may require you to meet certain physical standards.

To sum up, with a Pharm.D degree, you're eligible for SSC CGL , especially for most of the administrative and officer-level roles. Just be sure to read the official notification for any post-specific requirements.
