Hello,
No it is not so.Every year board authorities releases their top 20 cutoff percentile.This can be 65% or 80% or 70% depending upon the respective boards.You need to visit your board's website to check previous years top 20 percentile because it varies every year.
Good luck.

No top 20 percentile means if 100 students are opting for exam the top 20 students having more marks will be selected.
