MET cutoff is determined by various factors, including previous trends, the number of applicants, seat availability, and exam difficulty. It varies across courses, with competitive branches like Computer Science having lower cutoff ranks.
The cutoff for MET 2026 is expected to be announced soon, and candidates can check it by visiting the official website. Previous years' trends suggest that high-demand courses, such as B.Tech in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, and Data Science, have relatively lower cutoff ranks compared to other engineering disciplines. Understanding the cutoff helps candidates gauge their chances for admission to their desired courses.
Factors Affecting MET Cutoff 2026
The MET cutoff is prepared based on several key factors. Here are some of the important points considered while deciding the cutoff:
- MET cutoff trends from previous years
- Total number of seats available in each course
- Number of applicants for each course
- Total number of students appearing for MET 2026
- The overall difficulty level of the MET 2026 exam

Frequently Asked Questions
Ans: If you don’t meet the MET 2026 cutoff for your preferred course, you still have several options. You can apply for admission into other courses that have a lower cutoff but may still align with your interests. You may also consider reapplying for MET in subsequent years after strengthening your preparation. Additionally, some universities offer counseling or alternative pathways, like lateral entry into specific programs, where you might have a chance to secure a seat.
Ans: In the case of a tie where two or more candidates have the same MET 2026 cutoff marks, tie-breaking rules are applied to determine the final rank. These rules may vary, but typically, the candidate with the higher marks in the core subjects (Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics) or the higher overall score is given preference. If a tie still persists, factors like the age of the candidate or the total marks scored in specific subjects may come into play. The exact tie-breaking criteria will be outlined by the MET authorities.
Ans: No, the MET cutoff varies for different campuses under MAHE such as MIT Manipal, MIT Bengaluru, MU Jaipur, and SMIT Sikkim. Each campus has a different number of seats, faculty strength, infrastructure, and popularity, which influences its individual cutoff rank for every course. For instance, a popular course like Computer Science at MIT Manipal typically has a much lower cutoff (i.e., higher competition) than the same course at another campus.
Ans: Not necessarily. Scoring above the cutoff gives you eligibility for counseling, but it does not guarantee admission into your preferred course or campus. Admission depends on the availability of seats, your preferences filled during counseling, and the choices made by other higher-ranked candidates. To maximize your chances, you should fill multiple choices and keep realistic preferences.
Ans: Yes, MET has reservations for specific categories, such as:
- NRI/Foreign Nationals
- General Category
- Other regional/institutional quotas (depending on the course or campus) These reserved seats may have separate cutoffs, and the number of open category seats will impact
