Hi,

Candidates who have passed 12th boards with a minimum aggregate of 50% in Science stream with Physics, Chemistry, Maths & English as their core subjects from any recognized institute is eligible for applying to St. Xavier's College, Kolkata to study Bsc in Physics.

Now, the cut off is usually around 480-482 marks out of 500 or you can say students who get 90% to 92% have a better chance of securing a seat in this college. If you are a Christian candidate, then you might have a better chance of getting admissions because Christians are given more priority over students of other religion. However, the cut off for Christian students too won't be lower than 85% to 87%. Having said that, the cut off may vary significantly this year due to the confusion in board result so if you are eligible then please apply for the course & wait for the counselling process to begin.

Hope this helps.
