@anticipator.ladCHSL- last year's cut-off for DEO is 138(NR region). You might get some post with 120+, but for secure your seat in the opted region, you must aim high.
well it went as high as 160 but that depends on the post under consideration it went as low as 109 for certain other posts
thou in principle i agree you should aim for the best but my only intentions for stating the above mentioned was to give the guy some hope so atleast he starts preparing for the type test which may just be required later
