    1. Hi Amit !
      Your query that how Railway Board will Prepare their merit list. Is it depends on number of right or wrong attempt in ALP Psycho test? or this test is only of qualifying nature and doesn't depends on number of wrong attempt, and how to determine cutoff of overall merit will be posted tomorrow.
