BEST REGARDS
Hey! The qualifying cutoff for GATE CSE in 2025 was around 29.2 marks for General, 26.2 for OBC/EWS, and 19.4 for SC/ST/PwD. For GATE 2026, the official cutoff is not declared yet, but if we look at the past trends, it usually stays around 30–32 marks for General category. So, if you are preparing, it’s better to target a score well above this range to be on the safer side.
GATE 2026 is an important exam for admission to M.Tech, PhD, and also for PSU recruitments. Aptitude and Engineering Mathematics play a key role as they carry significant weightage in the exam and help in improving the overall score. I’ll be attaching links with resources for both Aptitude and Engineering Mathematics so you can practice well and prepare effectively.

Hello,
Yes, you can change your category from General to OBC in the GATE application form. This can be done during the correction window, which typically opens after the last date for application submission.
You will need to pay a correction fee of Rs. 500. Please ensure you upload a valid OBC certificate as per the prescribed format and date mentioned by GATE.
To make the change, log in to the GOAPS portal, navigate to the "Change personal data" section, and update your category. Submit the changes and pay the required fee.
Remember to complete the correction before the deadline, as no changes will be accepted after the final date.
Hope it helps !
