Introduction [0:00]
The video welcomes viewers to MixedTube Media and announces the completion of the GNM CBT exam, which consisted of six shifts. The primary focus of the video is to provide an estimated cut-off for interview selection, broken down by category for both male and female GNM candidates. Additional topics include the total number of test-takers, expected result dates, and answer key release. The presenter encourages viewers to share the video and subscribe to the channel.
Normalization Process [1:08]
The presenter acknowledges that the West Bengal Health Recruitment Board (WBHRB) hasn't released specific rules regarding the interview process, candidate ratios, or normalization methods for the six shifts. Viewers are encouraged to share any information from the advertisement regarding the percentile process or Z-score normalization. The presenter explains that normalization is essential to ensure fairness across different shifts, preventing bias due to varying difficulty levels. While percentile is currently more common, the presenter previously discussed Z-scores in another video.
Understanding Percentile [2:56]
The presenter clarifies the difference between percentage and percentile, explaining percentile with an example. If a candidate scores 70 out of 100 in a shift with 5000 candidates, and 3000 candidates scored below 70, the percentile calculation would be (3000/5000) * 100 = 60. This means the candidate's percentile is 60. The presenter notes that percentile-based normalization is commonly used to ensure a fair and consistent scoring system across all shifts.
Factors Influencing Cut-off [5:25]
The presenter discusses the varying difficulty levels reported across the six shifts, with some viewers noting that the first shift on December 1st and the second shift on January 1st were particularly challenging. The presenter emphasizes that the estimated cut-off is based on personal analysis and a general ratio, not official WBHRB guidelines. The presenter reminds viewers that the actual cut-off may vary.
Expected Cut-off for Male Candidates [6:32]
The presenter provides estimated cut-off scores for male candidates based on different categories, considering the total of 344 available seats, which may increase. The presenter stresses that these are just estimations.
- UR: 59-61 (85 seats)
- SC: 53
- ST: 48 (46 seats)
- OBC-A: 56+ (20 seats)
- OBC-B: 58+
- EWS: 56+
- UR PWD: 48+

The presenter estimates the total number of male candidates to be around 4,000 to 5,000, considering graduates from government and private nursing colleges in West Bengal and other states.
Expected Cut-off for Female Candidates [9:09]
The presenter provides estimated cut-off scores for female candidates, considering the 2092 seats available. The presenter estimates that there are more than 4,000 female candidates.

The presenter reiterates that these are only potential cut-off scores and should not be taken as definitive predictions.
Additional Information and Advice [10:18]
The presenter emphasizes that the analysis is based on personal estimates, as the WBHRB has not released official candidate numbers or normalization procedures. The presenter reiterates that a higher candidate ratio and increased seat availability could lower the cut-off scores. Viewers are advised not to be discouraged if their scores are slightly below the estimated cut-offs, as they may still have a chance for selection. The presenter encourages viewers to prepare for upcoming CHO exams and announces that related classes will be available on the channel.
Expected Dates for Answer Key and Results [11:49]
The presenter provides estimated dates for the release of the answer key and results. The answer key for the GNM CBT exam is expected around January 10-12. The results for Basic and Post Basic courses are likely to be published around January 15, while GNM results are expected towards the end of January. The presenter explains that the timeline depends on the time required to conduct interviews for Basic and Post Basic candidates before commencing the GNM interviews.
Final Thoughts [12:56]
The presenter reiterates that the provided information is based on personal analysis and a specific ratio, as the WBHRB has not disclosed the rules for candidate selection or normalization methods. Viewers are encouraged to remain positive and avoid unnecessary stress, as the final results and interview selection will determine the outcome. The presenter expresses hope for a favorable outcome for all candidates and suggests that a higher selection ratio could lead to lower cut-off scores.
