Factors Determining NEET PG Cut-off
There are various factors responsible for determining the cut-off marks, some of which are as follows.
- Number of Test-Takers: The number of candidates appearing in the exam always affects the cut-off marks. The high number of candidates means high competition which increases the cut-off marks.
- Difficulty Level of Exam: The difficulty level of the exam is also a crucial factor that decides the cut-off marks. If the questions asked in the exam are difficult in nature, then the cut-off marks will definitely come down.
- Number of Seats: The number of seats is always inversely proportional to the cut-off mark. The lesser number of vacancies means a high cut-off and vice-versa.
- Candidate’s performance: The overall performance of candidates also affects the cut-off marks. If a high number of candidates do well in the exam, then the cut-off marks will also be high.
