Maharashtra University of Health Sciences (BNCOE) is also located in Maharashtra state where the cutoff determines the admissions for various disciplines in relation to the particular course being pursued, the category (open or reserved) as well as the entrance exams (MHT-CET and JEE Main) scores. The cutoff marks can vary each year based on the following:
1. MHT-CET Cutoff
For the MHT-CET cutoff applicants with a MHT-CET score and other suitable candidates the Centralized Admission Process (CAP) is utilized and the resulting cutoff is established. It usually depends on :
The number of people applying for admission to a particular college.
The standard of the examination.
Popularity of the branch and availability of its seats.
For certain popular engineering streams such as Computer Science, Electronics and IT the cut-off marks are generally higher as opposed to core engineering branches such as Civil or Mechanical engineering.
Very often, candidates belonging to Open (General) Category have higher cut off for the programs when compared to SC/ST/OBC reserved candidates.
2. JEE Main Cutoff
In case you apply through JEE Main, BNCOE is likely to take JEE Main scores for the purpose of admission, particularly, for All India quota or management quota seats. JEE Main cut off is generally lower than that of MHT CET however, it tends to vary with respect to the performance as well as the number of applicants substantially.
3. Cutoff on the basis of Category
As a norm for upholding fairness to all, the minimum marks for the reserved categories e.g., SC, ST, OBC entries are relatively less than the open category mark.
An example of (indicative) cutoffs for the last few years:
Computer Science/IT (Open): 90-100 out of 200 (MHT-CET)
Electronics/Mechanical (Open): 80-90
Civil/Other Streams (Open): 70-80
Reserved Categories: For computer Science and electronics branches which are more in demand, cutoffs lie between 60-70 and lower for other branches.
Conclusion
As for BNCOE, the precise cutoff marks tend to change every academic session, hence it is advisable that one visits the official MHT-CET website or the BNCOE admission portal for more cross-sectional and timely relevant cutoff information on various courses and categories. Moreover, you can also contact the BNCOE admission office to get the latest cutoff trends for the course you want to take.
