Embrace Flexibility
SSC has rolled out the self-slot selection process for the Combined Higher Secondary Level (CHSL) Examination 2025 Tier-I. Candidates can now go to the official
website, ssc.gov.in, to choose their exam city, date, and shift. This initiative represents a move towards making the examination process more candidate-friendly, offering greater flexibility. The self-slot selection window opened on October 22nd and will stay open until October 28th. It is important to note that after this date, no changes will be permitted, so timely selection is crucial. This new approach empowers candidates to manage their schedules, reducing scheduling conflicts.
Understanding the System
The new self-slot selection system enables candidates to choose their preferred exam city from the three choices they provided during their application. This also extends to selecting a specific date and shift for the Tier-I exam. It's a departure from the previous method where SSC assigned slots without candidate input. This new feature aims at reducing last-minute scheduling issues for the candidates. Aspirants taking the exam in regional languages should be aware that the availability of dates and shifts could be restricted. Once selections are submitted, they are final, so careful consideration is a must before finalizing the choices.
How to Apply
To complete the self-slot selection for SSC CHSL 2025, candidates should follow a few simple steps. The first step involves visiting the official SSC website, ssc.gov.in. Following this, candidates need to log in using their registration number and password. Next, you must navigate to the designated "self slot selection" section found on the candidate dashboard. Here, applicants can choose their preferred exam city, date, and shift from the available options. The final step is to save and submit the selection, and then download and print the confirmation page for their records. Failure to select a slot within the set timeframe will be regarded as non-participation in the exam.
Important Reminders
The SSC has also announced revised exam dates and schedules for the CHSL 2025 Tier-I examination. Candidates are advised to regularly check the official portal for updates and notifications regarding the examination schedule. This self-slot selection feature is available only until October 28th. No further changes or slot selections will be entertained after this deadline. Therefore, candidates who do not select a slot within the given period risk forfeiting their opportunity to sit for the exam. The introduction of this self-slot selection process reflects SSC’s goal of improving candidate experience and streamlining exam logistics. Following the guidelines carefully is essential to avoid any complications on exam day.
