- General-OBC gap typically ranges 10-15 marks (8-12 percentage points); SC/ST categories see 25-35 mark reductions from General cutoffs for competitive government college placements.
- Cutoffs fluctuate based on paper difficulty, number of applicants, and seat availability in Gujarat state institutions; GUJCET scores are often combined with JEE Main for final merit ranking.
- Premium institutions (top 1000 ranks) require 95%+ for General category; mid-tier government colleges remain accessible to OBC candidates scoring 60-67%, making GUJCET relatively accommodating across categories.
