How vacancies are distributed
Vacancies are notified RRB-wise and railway zone-wise in Annexure B of the CEN. A candidate applies to one RRB only, and that choice is final once the application is submitted — it cannot be modified later, even during the correction window.
Because merit is decided within the chosen RRB, the number of vacancies in the zone you pick directly affects your chances. Zones with few vacancies and many applicants post noticeably higher cut offs than zones with larger intakes.
Reservation
Posts are reserved for SC, ST, OBC (Non-Creamy Layer), EWS, PwBD and Ex-servicemen candidates as per the detailed provisions of the CEN. The vacancy table in Annexure B shows the community-wise split for every post in every zone.
