Hello,

The cutoff for Arts subjects can vary widely depending on the university, college, course, and category (General, OBC, SC/ST, EWS). For example:

Top universities like Delhi University (DU) often have high cutoffs for popular Arts courses like BA English, BA Political Science, and BA Psychology. In reputed DU colleges, the cutoff may range between 90–98% for General category students.

State universities and colleges, like those in West Bengal, Maharashtra, or Uttar Pradesh, usually have cutoffs between 60–85%, depending on the subject and competition.

Private colleges may have more flexible cutoffs, sometimes starting from 50–60%, especially if seats are available.

For reserved categories (OBC, SC, ST, EWS), the cutoff is generally 5–15% lower than the General category.

Check the official websites of the institutions for further clarification.

Hope this helps. All the best!
