Factors determining GATE 2026 Cutoff
GATE is one of the major exams for postgraduate courses in India. It is highly competitive, with over 8 lac students registering annually. Many factors will drive the GATE 2026 cut-off, such as-
Number of candidates
The number of candidates appearing for the GATE 2026 exam will greatly impact the cut-off. Some Engineering branches are more demanding than others, so the competition for those branches is higher than for other branches. This leads to higher cut-offs in those GATE papers. For example, the number of candidates appearing for the Computer Science and Information Technology (CS & IT) paper is higher than the number of candidates for other papers, so the GATE CS cut-off could also go higher, considering other factors. This year, the GATE 2026 DA paper is expected to be on the difficulty side, as the number of applicants are increasing.
Number of Seats Available
Candidates must know that the GATE cut-off is not similar to the cut-off for admission to a particular institute, such as IIT Bombay, IIT Madras, etc. These institutes release their cut-off for admission to courses offered to GATE-qualified candidates. Seat availability is a crucial factor behind the admission cut-off of the particular institute. Candidates should understand that the fewer seats available, the higher the cut-off may be.
Difficulty Level of Exam
The difficulty level of the GATE question paper affects the cut-off. Candidates must know that for easier question papers, most candidates will be able to score well, and the cut-off will be high, and vice versa for difficult papers.
Category of Candidate
Candidates must know that the GATE cut-off rank for 2026 will vary for different categories. As per previous trends, the open category have the highest cut-off, and SC/ ST/ PwD has the lowest cut-off. Candidates must consider the impact of the category on the cut-off rank for different institutes such as IITs, NITs, and IIITs.
