The Railway Recruitment Boards (RRBs) conducted the RRB Group D 2025 Computer-Based Test (CBT) on November 26, 2025, in three shifts across the country. The official RRB Group D exam analysis is being prepared based on candidate feedback and expert review. The shift-wise analysis helps aspirants understand the overall and section-wise difficulty level, question pattern, and expected performance trends. A total of one hundred questions carrying one hundred marks were asked in the CBT. Candidates who qualify this stage will be called for the next phase of recruitment as per the official selection process.
RRB Group D 2025 Shift Timings
The examination was conducted in three shifts. Reporting and gate closing timings were strictly followed at all centres.
Candidates were required to reach the examination centres well before gate closure. Late entry was not permitted under any condition.
RRB Group D 2025 Exam Pattern
The RRB Group D CBT followed the prescribed exam pattern released in the official notification. The paper was divided into four major sections.
Each question carried one mark. Negative marking rules, as notified earlier, were applicable in the CBT.
RRB Group D 2025 Difficulty Level (Overall)
As per initial reactions received from candidates across multiple centres, the overall difficulty level of the paper was reported as moderate. None of the shifts were described as extremely easy or highly difficult. Mathematics and Reasoning sections were considered time-consuming by several candidates, while General Awareness was mostly current-affairs oriented. Science questions were mostly from basic Physics, Chemistry, and Biology at the secondary school level. Candidates who had prepared from standard NCERT-based content found the section manageable.
Section-Wise Difficulty Level Trend
Based on early feedback trends, the expected difficulty level across sections is summarised below:
- General Science: Easy to Moderate
- Mathematics: Moderate
- General Intelligence and Reasoning: Moderate
- General Awareness and Current Affairs: Easy to Moderate
The exact shift-wise variation will be clearer once detailed memory-based papers and expert reviews are compiled.
