Q:   When will SNAP 2025 cut off be announced?
A:

 The date of SNAP cut off announcement is never communicated by the Symbiosis International (Deemed) University, as the selection process is conducted by the constituent institutes individually. However, it has been seen over the years that the SNAP cut off are released about a week after exam result declaration. The SNAP cut offs are available through login at the websites of SIU institutes as candidates who pass the SNAP exam, have to fill the personal interview form based on their score and college cut off. The SNAP cut off usually ranges between 55-98 percentile. The cut offs for SIMB Pune is the highest every year and the cut offs for SIHS Pune is the lowest.

Q:   What is SNAP percentile?
A:

SNAP percentile refers to a candidate's rank against all the test takers, calculated on the basis of marks scored in the exam. For example, total marks in SNAP is 60, so any candidate getting the highest score out of 60 will get 99.99 percentile.
