श्रेणी-वार अपेक्षित कटऑफ (सांकेतिक)
| श्रेणी | अपेक्षित कटऑफ (सांकेतिक) |
|---|---|
| **General** | 115-125 marks (38-42%) |
| **EWS** | 110-120 marks (37-40%) |
| **OBC** | 105-115 marks (35-38%) |
| **SC** | 95-105 marks (32-35%) |
| **ST** | 90-100 marks (30-33%) |
| **PwD** | 85-95 marks (28-32%) |
- Category differential: General cutoffs typically run 8-12% higher than OBC and 15-20% higher than SC/ST categories, reflecting reservation policy in defence recruitment.
- Shifting factors: CDS cutoffs fluctuate with vacancy announcements (IMA/OTA/AFA/NA variations), paper difficulty (English often proves decisive), and SSB interview capacity—higher vacancies may lower written cutoffs by 2-5%.
- Critical context: These are *written exam qualifying cutoffs* only; final merit depends heavily on SSB interview performance (900 marks total including written + SSB), so candidates in the 35-50% range regularly secure commissions with strong SSB scores.
