Hi aspirant,

Those who have secured less than 60% in SSLC this year have to satisfy with a low profile private or government college to continue their pre-university education. The cut-off percentage has gone up this academic year and colleges are saying ‘no entry’ for those who secured less than 60% in their recently passed Secondary School Leaving Certificate (SSLC) examinations.

When DNA contacted some colleges in the city, they said the cut-off percentage has gone up by more than 10% for science and commerce courses and by about 5% for arts courses.  Principals of city-based PU colleges said the increase in SSLC pass percentage is also one of the reasons for this development.

Thank You.
