Number of seats available
The difficulty level of exam
Category of the candidates
Previous years cutoff trends
CSIR NET Cutoff 2021
The CSIR NET 2022 exam date is yet to be announced by NTA. The NTA will release the subject-wise and category-wise cutoff scores along with the CSIR NET Result on the official website. Until then, candidates can look at the CSIR National Eligibility Test cutoff for the year 2021 here.
CSIR NET Qualifying Cutoff 2021
NTA releases the CSIR National Eligibility Test qualifying cutoff. The qualifying cutoff is the minimum score needed to qualify in the exam. However, only scoring the qualifying marks may not be sufficient to be selected for CSIR NET JRF/Lectureship. Candidates will have to score as high as possible to increase their possibility of selection. The category-wise qualifying cutoff is given below:
Category
Minimum Qualifying Cutoff
General & OBC
33%
SC/ST and PwD
25 %
The JRF/LS Cutoff will be released for each of the subjects. However, the cutoff scores will not be released for each section of the paper. The cutoff released is based on the overall or total marks scored. The officials take several parameters to release the cutoff scores and the same is also discussed in this article.
