Asif, The cutoff for NTSE Tamil Nadu stage 1 will be released in combination with the stage 1 Results and, honestly, it is very difficult to predict the actual cutoff for this year, however, we can make use of the previous year trends to understand your chances. Now, for OBC Category, the previous years (2019) cutoff score for Stage 1 was 146 and the cutoff is expected to be quite similar this year too with probably some small shifts in the upward or downward direction, so, from the previous year trends, it may be quite difficult for you to qualify for stage II, however, you should wait for the official cutoff too as the previous year cutoff may not be repeated this time around. Also, as already discussed that the cutoff is released with the results or soon after it and so you should keep checking the official website dge.tn.gov.in for the same.
