Hello,

The marks required for a student belonging to the Other Backward Classes (OBC) in the 6th class vary depending on the school, board, or state-level educational system.

However, generally, OBC students may have some relaxation in admission or qualifying marks compared to general category students, but the specific percentage or marks required can differ.

In India, for instance:

• For government schools or state boards, the passing marks may be 33% to 40% in most subjects.
• For entrance exams, such as those for certain government schools or competitive exams, the cutoff marks for OBC students might be lower than for the general category, often by a margin of 5–10%.

Hope it helps !
