I actually wanted to calculate TMB (tumor mutational burden) for TCGA breast cancer samples. But I see that mutational load is available here Mutation Load - mutation-load-updated.txt for PAN CANCER data. So, From here I took the mutational load for TCGA BRCA data and it looks like below:

Cohort   Patient_ID     Tumor_Sample_ID  Silent per Mb   Non-silent per Mb
BRCA    TCGA-A2-A0CO    TCGA-A2-A0CO-01     0                  0
BRCA    TCGA-A2-A3KC    TCGA-A2-A3KC-01     0                  0

BRCA    TCGA-A2-A3XY    TCGA-A2-A3XY-01     0                  0
BRCA    TCGA-A2-A4RW    TCGA-A2-A4RW-01     0                  0

BRCA    TCGA-A2-A0ES    TCGA-A2-A0ES-01 0.135797917       0.217276667

Using this information how can I divide samples into High TMB and Low TMB? Is there a cutoff? Any help is appreciated. thanq.
