No, there is no relaxation in the WBCS cutoff for the reserved categories. The competition lies within the category and the process of arriving at the cutoff is same for all categories. The Commission calculate the WBCS cutoff for each category separately.

The WBCS 2023 prelims exam had a negative marking of 1/3, which means that 3 incorrect answers will eat up the marks scored by 1 correct answer. This negative marking system can lead to a higher cutoff as candidates need to be more cautious while answering questions to avoid losing marks due to incorrect answers.Additionally, the negative marking of 0.25 marks for each incorrect answer implies that each four incorrect answers will result in the loss of one correct answer's marks. This system can significantly affect the cutoff marks as candidates need to balance their speed and accuracy to maximize their scores.
