Hey mate,

No, Maths is not mandatory in calculating the best of four. However, you must have studied maths in order to get B.Com(Hons.) in Delhi University.

I myself scored considerably less in Maths but when I went to seek admission in DU, I calculated the best of four, based on my other subjects which were English(mandatory), Accountancy, Business Studies and Economics.

The people there, only see if you have studied maths in twelfth, they are least interested in your score.

However, you cannot consider a practical subject while calculating your best of four.

Here are some cutoff-

92%+ for general category for low ranked colleges e.g. shyamlal college

97%+ for best 5 colleges e.g. srcc, hindu, hasraj

94-96 % for colleges ranked from 6th to 12th e.g. dyal singh,dcac

In best four subjects in which English is compulsory

non med students would require 3-5 % more as they are changing streams

For reserved category at 95%(obc) they'll get top 4 colleges like srcc hindu kmc hasnraj

cutoff for sc st pwd is even lower

for general category bcom hons cutoff starts from 95 % only in first list

i got dcac prev year at 95% in 5th list

dcac is in top ten colleges list

DU colleges are very good....life is amazing at du....exposure, opportunities galore

The cutoffs change every year .....they generally go up

A ll the best.

God bless you!
