Marking Scheme and Cut-Off Expectations

Candidates must achieve the minimum qualifying percentile to pass the exam. The cut-off is determined category-wise and depends on several factors including difficulty level and the number of test-takers.
Experts believe that this year’s paper was relatively tougher compared to previous years. As a result, the cut-off marks may see a slight dip, offering some relief to borderline candidates.
