The answer to your question is a bit complicated, as it depends on the post you are applying for. The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) Combined Graduate Level (CGL) examinations comprise of several different posts that require diverse skill sets and eligibility criteria.

When it comes to medical tests in SSC CGL exams, a certification from a qualified doctor stating applicants' fitness level is mandatory before any appointment offer can be made from the commission. Depending on the post one applies for, their physical checkup will vary significantly.

For non-technical roles such as Assistants Section Officer/Assistant Audit Officer or Tax Assistant, physical standards may include: height minimums (based on gender and category), chest measurement minimums, visual acuity requirements and colour vision testing. Additionally, these posts may also require an abdominal ultrasound test or hydrocele piles hernia examination depending upon individual medical history or existing issues related to these conditions reported during the selection process. These tests help determine whether candidates have any health complications that could hinder their job performance in their assigned role.

For technical positions like Junior Statistical Office (JSO), Engineer or Investigator Posts; there are very specific tests designed by experts in each specialization field which are also taken into account when assessing one's fitness levels including detailed eye testing using advanced technological diagnostic tools based on age-group etc., hearing assessments where special sounds at different frequencies are measured along with comprehensive bone density measurements via x-ray machines for assessing joint flexibility and muscular strength etc., among many other individualized assessments depending upon each role's particular demands to make sure eligible candidates meet all required specifications of safety while performing technical duties associated with respective posts they apply for under SSC CGL exams conducted by the commission every year.
