SSC to Conduct Re-Test for Phase 13 Exam Candidates Affected by Technical Glitches
The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has clarified that the SSC Phase-XIII/2025 Selection Post exam will not be cancelled despite technical issues reported at some exam centers.
Instead, the Commission is considering a re-examination for affected candidates to ensure fairness. An official notice regarding the re-test schedule is expected soon on ssc.nic.in.
SSC Phase 13 Exam Will Not Be Cancelled; Re-Test Planned for Affected Candidates
The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has officially announced that the SSC Phase-XIII/2025 Selection Post exam will not be cancelled in its entirety. The clarification comes in the wake of technical glitches and server issues reported at several examination centers during the recent conduct of the computer-based tests.
Several candidates across multiple states had raised complaints regarding screen freezing, system lags, abrupt logouts, and even incomplete question papers, especially during the Matriculation, Higher Secondary, and Graduate-level posts exams held under Phase 13.
SSC Phase 13 Exam - Key Highlights:
| Particulars | Details |
| Exam Status | Not Cancelled |
| Affected Candidates | Will likely be given another chance through a re-examination |
| Mode of Exam | Computer-Based Test (CBT) |
| SSC's Assurance | Transparency and fairness will be maintained. |

In a press release, the SSC stated:
"The Commission is aware of the technical challenges faced by candidates at some centers. In the interest of fairness, we are evaluating data and will consider a re-examination for those genuinely affected."
What Went Wrong?
Server disruptions and connectivity issues at select centers.
Many candidates were unable to complete or start the exam properly.
Some centers reportedly did not adhere to standard protocols, triggering further concerns about the integrity and uniformity of the examination.
SSC's Likely Course of Action:
- A re-exam will be conducted for candidates whose sessions were compromised.
- Centers responsible for the disruptions may face blacklisting or penalties.
- SSC will verify system logs and complaints before shortlisting candidates eligible for re-test.
Candidates are advised to:
- Keep monitoring the official SSC website (ssc.nic.in).
- Maintain a copy of their admit card, session details, and screenshots (if any) to support their claim.
- Do not fall for rumors about exam cancellation or unauthorized updates.
About SSC Phase 13 Recruitment:
The SSC Phase-XIII/2025 Selection Post examination was conducted to recruit candidates for over 5,000+ vacancies in various departments, ministries, and organizations under the Government of India. The posts were divided into three levels:
- Matriculation Level
- Higher Secondary Level
- Graduation & Above Level
The computer-based test included questions from General Intelligence, Quantitative Aptitude, General Awareness, and English Language.
What This Means for Aspirants:
This move by SSC ensures that genuine aspirants are not penalized due to external technical factors. While the majority of candidates will not need to appear again, only affected candidates (verified by system data) will be notified for re-examination.
