The GATE cutoff for admission into the Division of Mechanical Sciences is among the highest in the country. For general category candidates, it typically ranges from 700 to 850 out of 1000, depending on the stream and competition that year. It's a clear reflection of IISc's excellence and the intense competition to join. While numbers matter, the final selection often considers overall academic performance, motivation, and interview rounds in research-based programs. A holistic academic profile is key.
