DU first cut-off list again touches 100 per cent

[silent poison]

The first cut-off list of Delhi University for its undergraduate courses has once again touched the 100% mark, with Ram Lal Anand College, a rank outsider, this time putting the ceiling at maximum for admission to its B.Tech (Computer Science) course.

In 2011, the 100 % cut off for B.Com (Hons) at prestigious Shri Ram College of Commerce (SRCC) had sparked a major outcry, prompting the then HRD Minister Kapil Sibal to intervene and ask the Vice Chancellor to look into the issue.

If the first cut off issued late last night is of any indication, admission for the new four-year undergraduate programme in DU will not be any easier for aspirants as the cut-offs for the various courses remained high.

Both Hindu College and Bhaskaracharya College of Applied Science have kept their cut off in the bracket of 96.75-99.75 and 97-99.75 for Commerce and B.Tech courses respectively.

Last year Hindu college was the front runner among DU colleges for having a high cut off range of 96.25 to 99.25 %.

The SRCC, last year, had kept its cut off for Commerce and Economics at 97 and 97.5 respectively.

Students aspiring to study Commerce as their major will have to fight a tough competition to get admission into their college of choice as almost all of them kept a high range of cut off for the subject.

The Commerce cut offs for almost all colleges were above 90 % with Hansraj having a cut off range at 96.75-98.75, Lady Shri Ram College at 97.75-98.75, Shaheed Bhagat Singh at 96-99 and Sri Venkateswara at 96.75 %.

For the highly sought after Economics course, Hindu has put its cut off at 97.5%, while LSR declared a cut off of 97.75 %.

Other high cut offs were of Hansraj (97.25), Miranda House (96.5-97), Kirorimal (95.5-98.5) and Ramjas (94.5-97.5).

English and Journalism courses, admissions for which were carried out through common entrance tests until this year, also saw a high cut off.

While the cut off for English ranged till 98.5 % with the highest being at Hindu college, the first ever cut off marks for the Journalism course were above the 90 % mark in all the six colleges offering the course..

The system of marking has become a bl00dy farce! Even the type of questions asked are beyond idiotic. Now if everyone starts getting 100%, how are they going to get admission?

The entire examination system needs a radical change. A couple of decades back getting 60% marks in Senior Cambridge got one a 1st class grading, something that few managed and were considered brilliant! The present examination system has become a farce of galactic proportions.

Correct.

I can only thank God that I finished my studies in time. The way things are now, I wouldn't have got admission even for a Distant learning class.

Ironically, these 100 % cut off types can hardly write an application or mail when they come to the professional world !

Is this really a forum for discussing Delhi University's cut off lists now ?

My university UBC has a cut off of 92% for BSc and 98% for BComm so such high standards are universal. Only idiots who cannot make it in complain.
