AP LAWCET Cutoff 2026: The Andhra Pradesh State Council of Higher Education (APSCHE) releases the AP LAWCET 2026 cutoff for admission to participating law colleges. The exam cutoff is the minimum qualifying mark that students need to score to become eligible for the AP LAWCET counselling process. Candidates are allotted a seat only if they obtain marks beyond the required cutoff. The authority has set different minimum qualifying mark criteria for General/ OBC and reserved category candidates. 

The minimum qualifying marks for AP LAWCET are 35% for General/ OBC candidates. This means such students need to score a minimum of 42 marks (out of 120) to participate in the counselling process.

Candidates should ensure that they satisfy the eligibility criteria to appear for counselling. APSCHE releases a separate APLAWCET cutoff for 3-year and 5-year LLB colleges.
