Frequently Asked Questions – Agriculture Degree Admissions
How is the cutoff mark calculated for agriculture courses?
The cutoff mark for agriculture and related degree courses is calculated based on your Class 12 subject marks. The calculation depends on the group you studied.
For Biology or Mathematics Group:
Cutoff = Biology + (Physics / 2) + (Chemistry / 2)
Cutoff = Maths + (Physics / 2) + (Chemistry / 2)
For Botany & Zoology Group:
Cutoff = Botany/2 + Zoology/2 + Physics/2 + Chemistry/2
The maximum cutoff mark is 200. A higher cutoff improves your chances of getting top agriculture colleges and courses.
What are the eligible groups for agriculture courses?
Students from the following groups are eligible to apply for agriculture and allied courses:
- Group I: Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology
- Group II: Physics, Chemistry, Biology with one additional subject
- Group II (A): Physics, Chemistry, Botany, Zoology
