B.Sc Forestry

The eligibility criteria for B.Sc Forestry is 10+2 in PCB/ PCM with a minimum of 45% marks in aggregate and it will be in first-come-first-serve basis.

If you are SC/ST/NT/OBC, you are luckier, you can get admission with 52% marks.
The case for Bachelors in Arts is opposite. It never went down below 75%, at least not in 2012.
This maybe primarily because, prospective engineers apply for a B.Sc course, in case they don't get a good college.
