While, <\/span><b>GATE Scores <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">are normalised values calculated out of 1000. Scores are calculated based on the difficulty of your exam shift and the performance of the top scorers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, a GATE CSE raw mark of 65+ converts to a GATE score above 800.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Therefore, if you are aiming for top IITs and NITs, target 65+ marks. Moreover, do not skip General Aptitude as you can easily get 15 marks. Solve at least 10-15 years of PYQs. Taking regular mock tests also helps to score higher marks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead of waiting for just one option, apply to multiple institutes through COAP and CCMT.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The GATE ESE cut off is only your starting point. The real challenge is securing a safe score. A safe score helps you clear the admission cut off at your dream institute. Keep checking the official COAP and CCMT updates.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3 id=\"last-year-branch-wise-cut-off\">GATE 2025 Cutoff Marks (Branch-Wise):<\/h3>\n<div
