such as:<ul data-start="3210" data-end="3630">
<li data-start="3210" data-end="3299">
Number of Candidates: More candidates increase competition and raise the cut off.
</li>
<li data-start="3300" data-end="3371">
Exam Difficulty: Easier papers usually push the cut off higher.
</li>
<li data-start="3372" data-end="3445">
Vacancy Count: Higher vacancies generally lead to lower cut offs.
</li>
<li data-start="3446" data-end="3540">
Category-Wise Reservation: Separate cut offs for each category affect the final range.
</li>
<li data-start="3541" data-end="3630">
Previous Year Trends: Trends help predict realistic targets for the current year.
