SSC GD Constable Answer Key 2025 Release Expected Soon

Candidates can download the answer key and raise objections starting February 28, 2025.

The SSC GD Constable Answer Key 2025 is eagerly awaited by thousands of candidates who appeared for the General Duty (GD) Constable examination conducted by the Staff Selection Commission (SSC). This answer key is significant as it helps candidates evaluate their performance and estimate their potential scores even before the official results are declared.

The provisional answer key for the SSC GD Constable Exam is expected to be released on February 28, 2025. This date is tentative, but the commission has historically released the answer key and response sheet within a week after the exam, which took place on February 25, 2025. Candidates are advised to frequently visit the official SSC website at ssc.gov.in for updates.

Once the answer key becomes available, candidates can download it through their online accounts. Here’s how to do it:


  1. Visit the official SSC website at ssc.gov.in.

  2. Look for the option titled ‘Answer Key and Response Sheet for SSC GD Exam 2025.’

  3. Click on it to access the login page.

  4. Enter your Registration Number and Password, and hit the Login button.

  5. After logging in, the answer key and response sheet will be available for download.

About the objection process, if candidates find discrepancies or errors within the answer key, they can raise objections. This window to challenge the provisional key will likely be available for 5 to 7 days post-release. Candidates need to pay ₹100 for each objection raised, which can be completed using various online payment methods during the objection submission process.

Understanding how to evaluate scores using the answer key is also integral for candidates. The marking scheme for the exam is as follows:


  • Correct Answer: +2 marks

  • Incorrect Answer: -0.25 marks (with negative marking)

  • Unattempted Questions: 0 marks

For example, if there were 80 multiple-choice questions (MCQs) and a candidate answered all, verifying their responses against the answer key could show 70 correct answers and 10 incorrect ones. The total score could be calculated as:


  • Total Score = (Number of Correct Responses × 2) - (Number of Incorrect Responses × 0.25)

Plugging the numbers gives: 70 × 2 - 10 × 0.25 = 140 marks - 2.5 marks = 137.5 marks.

The answer key plays a pivotal role by providing transparency and reassures candidates of the fairness of their evaluation process. Candidates should check their responses against the official solutions to gauge their approximate scores and assess their chances of qualifying for the next round.

It’s important to note: once the final answer key is published, no objections will be entertained. Candidates hoping to challenge answers must act swiftly during the provisional period. The window for scrutiny is limited, and clarity on their performance prior to the announcement of results is invaluable.

Stay attuned to the SSC official channels for any updates related to the answer key’s release and the subsequent processes involved. Such diligence will greatly assist candidates during this competitive examination process, making sure they’re well-prepared and informed.

For those waiting on results and subsequent updates, keeping up with these developments on the SSC official site is highly recommended. Remember, every detail counts when it’s about your future career!
