Hello,

There is no qualifying marks for candidates belonging to SC/ST category. For candidates belonging to general category/BC/EWS category the qualifying mark is 40 marks or 25% marks. So you need to score a non zero score but to get seat in a good college of your choice you need to score 80 or above.

Only having the qualifying marks in your score card, won't help you to get into a proper college, however, you need to score Minimum 25% of the total score i.e. 40 out of 160, in order to qualify the exam. Always try to score than this , at least getting 90 to 100, can help you to land up into top colleges for your desired course.
