## Expected cutoffs (category-wise)
| Category | Expected cutoff (indicative) |
|----------|------------------------------|
| General | 65-75 marks (70-82%) |
| EWS | 62-72 marks (67-78%) |
| OBC (NCL) | 58-68 marks (63-74%) |
| SC | 50-60 marks (54-65%) |
| ST | 48-58 marks (52-63%) |
| PwD | 45-55 marks (49-60%) |

**Guidance:**
- General category cutoffs typically run **7-12 marks higher** than OBC and **15-20 marks higher** than SC/ST for mid-tier to top-tier NLUs; the gap narrows slightly at lower-ranked institutions.
- Cutoffs fluctuate year-to-year based on **test difficulty, number of applicants, and seat availability** across participating NLUs; a particularly challenging paper may lower cutoffs by 3-5 marks across categories.
- These ranges reflect **competitive admission thresholds for reasonably ranked NLUs**; top-3 NLUs demand scores in the 82-87+ mark range (89-95%) even for reserved categories, while Tier-2 private colleges may admit at 10-15 marks below these indicative cutoffs.
