UGC NET Cutoff
UGC NET Qualifying Marks and Cutoff
The minimum qualifying threshold is different from the subject- and category-wise cutoff used for determining qualification.
| Candidate category | Minimum aggregate qualifying percentage |
|---|---|
| General / Unreserved / General-EWS | 40% |
| OBC-NCL / SC / ST / PwD / PwBD / Third Gender | 35% |
These are qualifying thresholds and should not be confused with the actual subject/category cutoff. NTA publishes subject- and category-wise cutoff information separately after the examination.
Because UGC NET cutoff values vary by subject and category, historical cutoff values should be stored only when the corresponding official year and category data has been verified.
