GATE Cutoff 2023 - IIT Kanpur released the GATE 2023 cutoff on the official website gate.iitk.ac.in. The cutoff for GATE 2023 is available on this page. Candidates can check the qualifying marks for the GATE exam through the GATE cutoff. The cutoff is different for each course and category of candidates. Those who secured more marks than the GATE cutoff 2023 have been declared qualified. The GATE 2023 cutoff for CSE was 32.5 (GEN), for ECE was 29.9 (GEN) and for CE was (26.6). Applicants who appeared for the GATE exam
Candidates who meet the GATE cutoff are eligible to participate in the counselling process for admission to M.Tech courses. It is important to note that the GATE qualifying cutoff is different from the admission cutoff. Those who seek IIT admission have to register for the GATE COAP. For admission to NITs, IIEST Shibpur, and some IIITs and CFTIs, the authority conducts CCMT counselling.
The GATE cutoff is broadly divided into two parts- the qualifying cutoff and the admission cutoff. The qualifying cutoff is the minimum cutoff required for passing the GATE examination. The admission cutoffs are the minimum marks required for admission into a particular course and institute. Candidates can check the GATE cutoff 2023 for various courses and categories below.

Hello,
Yes, you can change your category from General to OBC during the GATE 2026 correction window.
GATE always allows candidates to correct details like category. You will need to pay a small correction fee for this change. Make sure you upload a valid OBC certificate as per the format and date mentioned by GATE.
So, wait for the correction window, log in to your application, and update your category to OBC.
Hope it helps !

Hello, with an AIR of 25070 and a score of 499 in NEET PG 2025 under the General category, getting a government seat in West Bengal for highly demanded branches like General Surgery or Orthopedics may be difficult, as these usually close at much higher ranks. However, you still stand a chance for other clinical or para-clinical branches through the state quota counselling. I suggest using the NEET PG college predictor link I’m sharing here, which will give you a clearer idea of the colleges and branches you may get based on your rank and category.
