Factors Affecting CAT Cutoff 2024

  • Previous year CAT cutoff trends – Analysing the past year CAT cutoff trends it has been observed that there is only a slight difference or fluctuation in the cutoff. 
  • Number of CAT test takers – If the number of test takers is more than the cutoff is expected to go high due to intensifying competition. On the other hand if the test takers are less in number then the cutoff is usually low.
  • Availability of Seats – If the number of seats are less then the cutoff rises and colleges with more seats have a lower cutoff.
  • Difficulty level of CAT question paper – If the difficulty level of the question paper is high than the CAT cutoff will be less as there will be lesser students scoring high. This scenario reverses in a case where the difficulty level of the CAT question paper is moderate or easy.
