Section wise Minimum Admissible Score (SMAS):

• For each section, 20% of the average of the best 100 scores in that section will be considered as Section wise Minimum Admissible Score (SMAS).
• It means if the average of the best 100 scores in Chemistry section will be 43 out of 50, then SMAS for this section will be 43 x 0.20 = 8.6 marks. This process is similar to other section also.
• Candidates should secure equal to or more than particular SMAS in the General section & also in at least three subject sections. Then, these subject sections will be counted in merit list calculation. In case, candidate’s scores SMAS in all four subjects sections, then the best three subject scores will be counted.
• In a case, candidates not score SMAS in the general section or at least three subject sections, then they will not be allotted any merit rank & will not be eligible for admission.
