Most are just cut off the front, some cut off the back to stiffen weaker spined arrows to gain weight savings and match the dynamic spine of a stiffer rated arrow, I don't know of anyone who cuts equal front back amount, though you have to be careful how much is cut off the front as the further back the thicker the shaft becomes and you don't want the shaft to be of larger diameter at the cut than that of the point or the carbon would just peel off in impact.
