What the Cutoff Reveals
The Open Merit cutoff of 62.75 indicates a highly competitive selection process, especially in the general category. The RBA cutoff at 61 also shows strong competition among candidates from reserved backward areas.
Categories such as ST, SC, OBC, and ALC/IB have slightly lower cutoffs, consistent with reservation norms but still reflective of significant competition. The EWS category cutoff of 32 highlights wider score variation in that segment.
Why Cutoff Matters
Cutoff marks help candidates:
- Assess how their performance compares with the selected candidates
- Understand trends for future recruitment cycles
- Evaluate chances of selection based on category and preference
- Get clarity on merit thresholds applied by the recruitment board
The release of cutoff marks also ensures transparency in the recruitment process and provides insights into the merit-based selection adopted by the authorities.
