Hello,

The qualifying marks for Stage 1 of NTSE is 40% for General category and 32% for SC/ST/PwD category students. Getting selected for the stage 2 of NTSE 2019 will depend on the cut off decided by SCERT, Telangana. Last year, the cut off of NTSE Telangana was 118 for General category, 102 for SC and 108 for ST category students respectively. This year, the cut offs are bound to change due to the change in exam pattern.

Till then, study hard, solve as many previous years' questions papers as possible, make notes and get all your doubts cleared.

All the best!
