    The official publication of the UPSC Indian Engineering Services (IES) exam cutoff for 2024 includes information on the minimal scores needed to qualify for each category. The IES 2024 exam's total cutoff scores are as follows: 238 for the OBC category and 238 for the General and EWS categories. 202 and 227 are the corresponding cutoff scores for SC and ST candidates. To be eligible for the next steps of the selection process, which include the Mains exam and personality test, these cutoffs show the minimal scores required.

  • The candidates should note that the IES cutoff means the minimum marks required to get selected in a particular category. The IES 2024 cutoff is the minimum score required to qualify for the Indian Engineering Services exam. The Commission arrange the candidates in the order of their merit list and select the candidates in accordance with the number of vacancies in that particular category.

    The cutoff is determined by various factors, including the number of vacancies, the difficulty level of the question paper, and the number of candidates who appeared in the exam.
