A teacher said in a post, “The final answer key that has been released for SSC CGL 2023 has discrepancies and it’s impacting many deserving aspirants. SSC must clarify the wrong answers being chosen as correct for some of the questions. Many aspirants could not make it to the final list due to this error.”

An educator posted, “SSC CGL 2023-> 4 Dec -> Final Result 6 Dec -> Revised Final Result 15 Dec-> Final answer key using which result was prepared. SSC has changed answers to many questions which seems unjustified. SSC should re-examine the final answer key.”
