The cut off should be decided by the no. Of students applying from a particular branch and no. Of vacancies of that branch.surely this is a fair process.as there are some branches for which vacancies are high and also no. Of students applying are high therefore the cut off for them will b high..but in some branches no. Of students applying are low,so cutoff would automatically come down..thus conclusively either the deciding of cut off should be fair or there should b no cutoff
