LIC ADO 2015 Exam Review, Questions, Cutoff And Result
Though, LIC announced the interview results of LIC ADO a couple of months back, but the results were not posted on any website. The selected candidates were informed via Email and phones by their respective divisional offices.
So, candidates were really confused about the final cutoff marks for selection as ADO in Life Insurance Corporation of India.
Now one of the candidate has filed a RTI to get the final cutoff marks of selection. Here is the reply from Life Insurance Corporation of India:
LIC ADO 2013 cutoffs (via RTI):
Category: Written Test + Interview Cutoff Marks = Final Cutoff Marks for final selections
General: 60+75=135
OBC: 47+66=113
SC: 52+63=115
ST: 40+45=85
Above, you can also check out the scanned copy of RTI reply received by the candidate. I hope it will clear all the doubts of candidates about LIC ADO cutoff marks and results.
Life Insurance of India conducted the online exam of AAO(Assistant Administrative Officer) on May 11,12,18 & 19, 2013 and June 23, 2013. Though many candidates could not been able to give the exam due to their exam of SSC CGL but still lakhs of candidates appeared for the online exam.
Though LIC allowed the re-exam of candidates of Maharashtra(which could not able to give AAO exam due to their MPSC exam) which was unfair for the candidates of other states(which missed the exam due to SSC CGL). Any candidate can easily take stay on this exam accusing LIC of favoring Maharashtra candidates.
Anyways, now the LIC has conducted the exam of Maharashtra candidates also, result would be announced very soon.
The written exam of LIC AAO 2013 consisted of 160 questions divided into five sections. The English section was only qualifying and marks will not considered in final selection.
