The previous year minimum admissible score for NEST exam was 108 i.e 90% of section wise minimum cutoff marks.

If you see the trend, they keep the cutoff marks always to be 45% of the total marks.

For example, it was 90 marks in 2016 when the total marks was 200 and it was 81 marks in 2017 when the total marks was 180.

As they vary the total marks of the examination between 180–240 so expect the cutoff to be between 80–110 marks.

But in my opinion it shouldn't bother you much as just clearing the cutoff will do you no good. Getting a seat all depends on your rank. Get a rank below 700 and you have a chance to get admitted to NISER. This would need a score of around 50–55%.

Good luck for your exams :)

Hii

The NEST cut off vary year to year so there is no fix criteria for that but on an average to secure a seat through nest you must score 45% of the total marks.i Hope this information helps you.

Thank you

Hello Dhiren 

based on previous year cutoff trend and considering your rank you should get admission.  However cutoff varies each year so it cannot be said with surety 

Hi Manjusha,

The exam is for 230 marks and consists of 5 sections. The exam has a negative marking of -1. A score of 150+ is considered a good and decent score and safe. You can always hope and aim for a score above 180 to be safe and confident. 

All The Best

Hello dear..

Well, if you are a general category student, then you need to score a bit more than a reserved category student.

Although the qualifying marks depends on various factors like no. of students, difficulty level of questions, seats available etc., on an average, we can say, that for a general candidate, if you score more than 60%, then you are on safer side, score between 50–60%, you still have good chances that you will be selected, while score less than 50%, then danger zone, but in 2nd and 3rd round of counselling, you have some chances.

Please note that these figures mostly depends on the difficulty level, so if, for you, the questions are harder than previous year, don’t worry, it will be harder for every Indian giving that same exam at that moment.

Best of luck..

Dear Akay,

Difficulty level changes every year, so on an average you need to score atleast 60 - 65 % to get seat.

Hope this helps!!
