Hello,

Around 80% of the total marks is the safe score and makes your seat secured in the college where you want to get an admission. to get an admission directly in 2nd year, you have to take lateral entry and you must have done diploma after 12th.

Mostly in top universities and institutes , the rank cutoff range is low for lateral entry students and it is like top branch cutoff for general category students. For this you have to study and  practice very well so that you have a good performance and score a good mark and get an admission in the college you are interested.

Hope it helps!
