Factors Determining UGC NET Cut Off:

The cut off is determined on the basis of the following factors:

  • It depends on the number of vacancies in that recruitment drive. If the number of vacancies is less then it will lead to an increase in cut off as there will be an increase in competition.
  • It also depends on the difficulty level, as it is a very important factor to determine cut-off. If the question paper will be more difficult, then the cut off will be lower; whereas in the case of easy paper the cut off will be less.
  • It also depends on the number of candidates, those who have appeared for the examination. If the candidates will be more then cut off will be higher, and vice-versa in case of fewer candidates.
  • It can also be determined by the previous year's UGC NET Cut off. We can get an average, by calculating through the previous year's data.

Calculation of UGC NET Cutoff:

  • The number of qualified candidates should be equal to 6% of the appearing candidates.
  • Slots that are available for the candidates should be according to the government rules on the reservation.
  • Candidates need to score the following minimum marks to get selected:
  1. For the General category, candidates need to score a minimum of 40% marks in both the papers taken together to get qualified.
  2. For OBC/ SC/ ST, candidates need to score a minimum of 35% marks in both the papers taken together to get qualified.
