Hi Anubhav,

As far as IIMs are concerned, CAT cutoff is announced category-wise (General/SC/ST/NC-OBC/PwD). Engineer or non-engineer has nothing to do with the cutoff. However, marks are assigned for engineers and non-engineers separately in the final merit list under diversity factor. Usually, non-engineers/female candidates get a few extra marks in the final merit list over engineering graduates/male candidates. To know more about CAT cutoff, kindly explore the link below:

Also, check the admission procedure/criteria at IIMs -
