How to Calculate Cut off Mark for Enginnering and Medical - 12th cutoff mark calculation -2012

The Engineering cut-off marks will be calculated as,
Subjects Total Marks Cut-off Calculation Cut-Off Marks
Mathematics 200 200/2 100
Physics 200 200/4 50
Chemistry 200 200/4 50
Engineering Cut-Off 200/200
For example, assuming that, if a student secured 198 in Mathematics, 174 in Physics and 190 in Chemistry, then the Engineering Cut-off marks of that student will as follows
 Maths - 198 /2  =  99
Physics - 174/4 =   43.5
Chemistry - 190/4 = 47.5

Hence Cut off Mark is given as 99+43.5+47.5 = 190

Cut-off marks for CBSE board for Engineering Admission

For CBSE students, the marks obtained by the students in the relevant subjects in the qualifying examination conducted by various Boards or Authority shall be equated with the marks obtained by the students in the same subjects in the qualifying examination conducted by the State Board of Tamil Nadu by adopting the method of normalization. (e.g.) if the highest marks secured by the student of State Board of Tamil Nadu in Physics is 100 and the highest marks secured by a student of any other Board in the same subject is 90 both the highest marks will be considered to be equal to 100. If a student of the other Board secures 60 marks in Physics when the first mark in Physics in the same Board is 90, 60 marks will be considered to be equal to 66.66 marks as arrived below:- 100 x 60 / 90 = 66.66% After normalization of marks in the relevant subjects in the qualifying examination conducted by different Boards, the qualified students shall be merged into a common merit list.
