Questions related to PU CET PG

Have a question related to PU CET PG ?

my rank in pu cet pg 2024 is 54 and i want to take admission in msc statistics course . My score in UG is 82% . What are the chances of securing a seat in msc statistics keeping in account that the admission will be based on 50% cet score + 50% UG score.

Securing a seat in MSc Statistics with a rank of 54 and 82% UG score is promising, but not guaranteed. Here's why:

Merit Calculation: Your admission depends on the combined score (50% weightage each) for PU CET PG rank and UG marks. With a good UG score (82%), you gain an advantage.
Limited Seats & Competition: The number of seats available for MSc Statistics and the competition level in your category highly influence your chances.
Uncertainty about Ranks: It's difficult to predict the exact cut-off ranks for specific universities. Ranks can vary year-to-year based on the applicant pool's strength.

Here's what you can do:

Analyze Previous Year Data: Look for previous year's cut-off ranks for MSc Statistics in the universities you're interested in. This can give you a general idea of your chances.
Apply Strategically: Apply to a mix of universities – some with a higher cut-off where your rank might be competitive, and others with a slightly lower cut-off as a safety net.
Monitor Counselling Rounds: Actively participate in the counselling rounds. You might get a seat in a preferred university during later rounds if seats remain unfilled.

With your strong UG score and decent rank, securing a seat in MSc Statistics is a strong possibility. Stay informed and apply strategically to maximize your chances.

hope this helps you!!

No, unfortunately, qualifying PU CET (PG) is mandatory for admission to M.Sc. programs offered directly by Panjab University, Chandigarh. This applies even if you filled out a general application form for PU.

You might be eligible for these programs based on your graduation marks (though individual colleges might have entrance exams). Research affiliated colleges offering your desired M.Sc. program and check their admission criteria on their websites.
Other Universities: Consider applying to other universities offering M.Sc. programs. Many universities conduct their own entrance exams, and some might accept your marks for direct admission. Research universities that match your interests and explore their admission processes.
