- The General-to-OBC gap typically ranges 8-12 marks (5-7 percentage points), with SC/ST cutoffs positioned 20-30 marks below General category for admission to government engineering colleges.
- Annual cutoff variations of ±5-8 marks occur based on paper difficulty, number of applicants, seat availability, and top-rank performances; easier papers historically push cutoffs upward by 3-5%.
- These indicative ranges reflect qualifying cutoffs for decent government/university colleges; premium NITs and top branches require scores in the 90-96% band regardless of category, with category benefits applying primarily to seat allocation within institutions.
