GATE 2025 Cutoff
Candidates can check the cutoff for GATE 2025 on this page. GATE cutoff 2025 will be available for EC, CS, MA, DA, PH, CH, MN and all other papers. It is important to note that two types of cutoffs will be released for the GATE exam: the qualifying GATE 2025 cutoff and the admission cutoff for GATE 2025. The differences between the qualifying and admission cutoff marks 2025 of GATE are specified below.
GATE 2025 Qualifying Cutoff Vs GATE 2025 Admission Cutoff: Students appearing in GATE must know the difference between the GATE qualifying cutoff 2025 and GATE 2025 admission cutoff.
- GATE Qualifying Cutoff 2025: The GATE 2025 qualifying cutoff is the minimum mark required by the candidates to qualify for the GATE exam. Hence, candidates who clear the GATE 2025 qualifying cutoff will be eligible to participate in the GATE COAP 2025 counselling. GATE qualifying cutoff marks 2025, will be different for all 30 subjects. Qualifying GATE cut-off for IIT and NIT will also vary as per the different categories of candidates. The GATE qualifying cutoff is released by the conducting institute along with the declaration of the result.
- GATE 2025 Admission Cutoff: GATE cutoff 2025 is the minimum qualifying score that candidates require to gain admission to the participating institutes. The cutoff score of GATE enables candidates to gain a seat in the desired institute. The admission cutoff of GATE 2025 will be released by the institute at the time of admission in which admission is desired.
GATE 2025 Opening & Closing Ranks
GATE cutoff marks for IIT and NIT will be released in the form of opening and closing ranks. After the declaration of GATE results, IITs and NITs will start the MTech admission process separately. The admission is done through JoSAA 2025 counselling. After the application and interview, institutes will release the GATE opening and closing rank.
