hi,

see cutoff score changes every year and it depends on certain factors like number of participants, questions difficulty level, seat matrix, number of vacancy comes , students category etc, drdo shortlisted candidates based on gate score , which follows by interview in selection of different position as per the eligibility of candidates, since aerospace engineers job is limited in India, your rank should be under 50, try to score above 80 to secure a decent rank.
