Difference Between Qualifying and Admission Cut Offs in Gate Exams

Many candidates often get confused between the concepts of “qualifying cutoff” and “admission cutoff” in the context of entrance exams like GATE. Here’s a breakdown of the key differences between these two terms:

  • Qualifying Cutoff: The qualifying cutoff refers to the minimum score or marks a candidate needs to secure to be eligible for further consideration. This cutoff is set by the exam conducting authority and determines whether a candidate qualifies for the exam, making them eligible for various opportunities, such as applying to postgraduate programs. 
  • Admission Cutoff: On the other hand, the admission cutoff is the score or rank that candidates need to meet to be called for admission to institutes like IITs, NITs, IIITs, and others.

Previous Year’s GATE Cut Off

Examining the cutoff trends from previous years based on your category and desired branch can offer useful insights into the marks needed to meet the cutoff. By analyzing this data, candidates can understand the minimum scores required for admission. However, it’s always a wise approach to target a score slightly above the official GATE 2025 Cutoff, as this can greatly improve your chances of gaining entry to a prestigious institute. Below, we have included tables displaying the cutoffs from past years to assist you in planning your preparation efficiently.
