The minimum qualifying mark for admission to the B.Des programme is specified by IIT Bombay through the UCEED Part A cutoff. In determining the cutoff, the examination cell takes into account several factors, including the total number of candidates who appeared for the UCEED 2023 exam, the number of candidates who qualified for UCEED 2023, the level of difficulty of the entrance exam, the total number of available seats, and the cutoff trends from the previous year.
UCEED (Undergraduate Common Entrance Examination for Design) is a national-level entrance exam conducted by IIT Bombay for admission to Bachelor of Design (B.Des.) programmes at IIT Bombay, IIT Guwahati, and IIITDM Jabalpur.
The cutoff for UCEED varies every year depending on various factors like the difficulty level of the exam, the number of students appearing for the exam, the number of seats available, etc.
The UCEED cutoff is usually released after the declaration of results. To be eligible for admission to the B.Des. programme, a candidate needs to secure a minimum prescribed cutoff score in UCEED. However, securing the cutoff score does not guarantee admission as there are other eligibility criteria and selection processes as well.
Therefore, it is recommended that candidates aim to score as high as possible in the UCEED exam to increase their chances of admission to their preferred B.Des. programme.
