Hello Rusy,
Both St. Xavier's college and Jadavpur University takes into account only the marks obtained in tge Science subjects in Higher secondary examination.E.g in sxc for physics, they give you a score out of 500 (3*physics + 2*mathematics) and the candidates are selected on the basis of this score. In chemistry they give a score out of 400 (3*chemistry and 1*mathematics). In mathematics sxc conducts an interview or admission test which is given 20% weightage and the marks obtained in Maths in board exams is given 80% weightage. For computer science, (2*maths + 1*physics + 1*overall) is considered.In JU marks obtained in Science and Maths in Class 10 exam is also taken into account along the marks in PCM in HS.
I hope this helps
All the best
