The selection process is based on the AFCAT exam cut-off marks. Notification of advancement to the next round of selection is given to those who achieve a score at least equal to the cutoff points. The cutoff is the lowest number of AFCAT qualifying marks needed for applicants to pass the test and move on to the next round of selection. To calculate the AFCAT threshold, 300 marks are utilised. A 150-mark system is used to calculate the EKT cutoff. In 2022, the AFCAT cutoff score was 157 out of 300. The 2019 AFCAT cutoff score was 133 out of 300, and the 2021 cutoff score was 165 out of 300.
