Delhi University admission: Finally, the 100% cutoff is here

NEW DELHI: The way Delhi University cutoffs have been spiralling, it had to happen someday. On Tuesday, it did. The first cut-off for BCom (H) at the Shri Ram College of Commerce reached an unbelievable 100% for the non-commerce aspirants. This means, humanities and science students wanting admission in BCom (H) at SRCC will need to have 100% marks in their best-of-four subjects! In other words, no non commerce student will be admitted in the course, at least in the first list. The first cut off list for the admission to undergraduate courses in Delhi University, released on Tuesday, brought more shock than hope. Science courses played hard-to-get with Daulat Ram College hiking its cutoff for chemistry (H) by as much as 13%. Gargi College followed suit and increased the cutoff marks for chemistry (H) by 12%, closely followed by SGTB Khalsa which raised its physics (H) cutoff to 92% this year — a hike of almost 10% from last year. At Miranda House the cutoffs for chemistry (H) and physics (H) went up by 8%. Last year, most students admitted in science courses chose to continue with their courses instead of dropping out like in previous years. In fact, many colleges faced overcrowding in classrooms. Most colleges had kept science cut-offs at a reasonable level, aiming to admit more students than the intake so that they were not left with vacant seats if students dropped out, said Meera Ramachandran, principal Gargi College.
