The GATE CCMT cutoff is the minimum score required to be considered for admission to the participating institutes, including IIEST Shibpur. It is released by the exam conducting authority, IIT Bombay, and is different for each category of candidates.

On the other hand, the IIEST Shibpur M.Tech merit list is the list of candidates who have been selected for admission to the M.Tech programme at IIEST Shibpur, based on their GATE scores and other factors. This list is prepared by IIEST Shibpur and is based on the GATE cutoff scores.

So, while the GATE CCMT cutoff is the minimum score required to be considered for admission, the IIEST Shibpur M.Tech merit list is the list of candidates who have actually been selected for admission.

Candidates preparing for IITs are only required to appear for the JEE Advanced entrance exam after qualifying JEE Main. Students who who secure above the 98th percentile in JEE Main 2024 Session 2 should start preparing for JEE Advanced 2025 immediately. Those who score between 95th and 98th percentile should focus on improving their JEE Main score by taking multiple mock tests and practicing previous year's question papers. By analysing their strengths and weaknesses, candidates can identify their areas of proficiency and topics where they need improvement. If they can achieve full marks in their practice sessions, they can start preparing for JEE Advanced. However, if they cannot score full marks, it is recommended that they appear for multiple mock test series for more practice.
