5 Core Factors Deciding the Cutoff

  • Number of Registered Candidates: A larger applicant pool directly intensifies competition, raising closing percentile thresholds.
  • Question Paper Difficulty Across Shifts: Tougher numerical or analytical papers lower raw marks cutoffs, which are subsequently normalized.
  • Total Sanctioned Seat Intake: Sanctioning of new seats or new institutes (e.g. new IITs/NITs/AIIMS) eases closing rank cutoffs.
  • Candidate Performance Distribution: Concentration of high scores in specific subject domains alters standard deviation in percentile calculations.
  • Horizontal & Vertical Reservation Quotas: Seat reservation rules for EWS (10%), OBC (27%), SC (15%), ST (7.5%), and Female Supernumerary (20%).
