Dear Himanshu,

If you are aiming for colleges likes St.Stephens or Hindu college, according to your marks, you won't be able to get admission in these colleges. AS a matter of fact, there are only a few colleges left for you to choose. However, not all of them are bad in fact some are quite good.

NOTE: all the cutoff mentioned here are from 2018 and may not be the same for every year.

Shaheed Bhagat Singh College(SBSC)

  • Closing cutoff:- GEN: 90 %, OBC: closed

Zakir Hussain Delhi College

  • GEN: 87%, OBC: 81.5, SC/ST: 73/73%

P.G.D.A.V

  • GEN:89%, OBC: 79%, SC/ST: 73/70%

Shyam Lal College

  • GEN:86%, OBC: 74%, SC/ST: 76/N/A%

Swami Shardhanand College

  • GEN:80%, OBC: closed, SC/ST: closed

Also, all the cutoffs mentioned above are final round cutoff as for the first round all of these colleges have cutoff equals to or above 92%. It is hard to get a good college in DU if you score below 92%.

EWS is introduced this year so it's effect on the cutoffs is still unknown however it will not cause much change as that reservation kind of includes everybody.

Hello himanshu,

As you want admission in English ( hons) in Delhi University.

So it's too tough to get admission as previous year after economis hons, english hons is the subject having high cut off.

But have patience and fill the du form which will released shortly by du and wait for the cut off.

May you will get the admission

Go through the previous year cut off once.



Hope this helps!

Hey,

your chances of getting in a good college are less if you are a general category student. Probably you will get a college in south campus like pgdav, aryabhatt, deshbandhu,etc. most of the good colleges have cut off more than 92%

hope this is helpful to you.
