IIT Kharagpur GATE Cutoff 2025: Check Previous Year M.tech Cutoff

The GATE 2025 cutoff scores will determine the M.Tech admission process at IIT Kharagpur for 2025. The authorities will establish these cutoffs based on factors such as the number of available seats, the difficulty level of the GATE exam, and the total number of registrations. Candidates who achieve scores equal to or above the IIT Kharagpur GATE 2025 cutoff will be eligible for admission. Higher scores in GATE 2025 will enhance the chances of securing admission.

The IIT Kharagpur GATE 2025 cutoff will be announced during the COAP counseling rounds. Once released, the cutoffs will be available on the official website. In the meantime, aspiring students can check previous years' M.Tech cutoff trends for IIT Kharagpur to gain insight into the expected cutoffs for 2025.

 

IIT Kharagpur GATE Cutoff 2025 (Expected)

Analyzing the expected GATE cutoffs for IIT Kharagpur in 2025 reveals the competitive landscape across various engineering disciplines. Programs like CSE and Artificial Intelligence are highly competitive, with projected cutoffs ranging from 770 to 800 for CSE and 680 to 720 for AI. Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering also show moderate to high competition, with cutoffs between 600 to 650 and 610 to 650, respectively.

In contrast, Chemical Engineering has relatively lower cutoffs, indicating less competition. Civil Engineering (Structural) and Electronics and Communication (VLSI) have high cutoffs, reflecting strong demand. These expected cutoffs help applicants understand the competitive landscape and set realistic targets for their preparation, enabling them to strategize effectively and make informed decisions about which programs to apply for.

IIT Kharagpur GATE Cutoff 2020

IIT Kharagpur GATE cutoff 2020 data shows that Computer Science, Electronics and Communication, and Electrical Engineering remain the most competitive branches, with the general category closing ranks below 800. Mechanical and Civil Engineering also saw strong demand, but with slightly higher cutoffs.

Interdisciplinary branches like Energy Engineering, Instrumentation, and Industrial Engineering are gaining popularity, though still less competitive than core branches. Fields like Biomedical, Bioengineering, and Agricultural Engineering had moderate cutoffs, offering good options for students interested in niche or research-oriented areas.

Reserved category cutoffs were significantly lower across all branches, offering broader access. In some cases, like Biomedical Engineering, EWS cutoffs were even lower than SC/ST, reflecting varying interest levels across fields.
