The cutoff marks required for B.Sc. Zoology vary depending on the university, state, and admission criteria. Here are some general guidelines:

1. Central & State Universities (CUET-Based Admission)

Many central and state universities now admit students to B.Sc. Zoology through the Common University Entrance Test (CUET).

The required CUET percentile varies by university, but 50-80 percentile is generally competitive.

Some top universities, like Delhi University (DU), have high cutoffs (above 85 percentile).

2. Merit-Based Admission (Class 12 Marks)

Some universities still admit students based on Class 12 board exam scores.

General category: 75-90% (higher in top colleges like DU, Presidency University, etc.)

OBC category: 70-85%

SC/ST category: 55-75%
