Key Observations:
- 🔼 CM1, CM2, and CS2 saw slight increases in cut-offs, indicating possibly easier papers or better overall performance.
- 🔽 CS1, CB1, and CB2 experienced noticeable drops in cut-off marks, especially CB2 (-6) and CB1 (-5) — suggesting tougher exams or lower average scores.
- The drop in CS1 cut-off by 4 marks may reflect exam difficulty or conceptual challenges faced by students in this session.
What It Means:
Cut-offs are set to maintain fairness and reflect real-world performance distributions. Lower cut-offs are not necessarily a relief — they signal exam difficulty or areas needing deeper understanding. Students should focus not just on scoring, but on mastering core concepts and practical application — something S.MONK continuously emphasizes through its strategic training approach.
