The Merit Index calculation for the provided data is as follows:

Merit Index = % + Scaling + Weightage

Here is how the Merit Index is computed for some candidates:

  1. Brijesh Pandey

    • % = 61.40
    • Scaling = 307.00
    • Weightage = 0.00
    • Merit Index = 61.40 + 307.00 + 0.00 = 307.00
  2. Based on the merit list, the cutoff for M.A. History  (EWS Candidates) is 289.00. Students with a merit index of 289.00 or higher have been admitted, with the last selected candidate having a merit index of 289.00.

Best book for history preparation for UPSC would differ in various phases of preparation.

One will recommend "India's ancient past" by R.S. Sharma regarding ancient Indian history. History of Medieval India casts a light on medieval history and for modern Indian history, "India's Struggle for Independence" by Bipan Chandra speaks volumes about it.

NCERT History Books from classes 6 to 12, in my opinion, are a necessary ground for any type of preparation. These not only bring factual content, but also concept clarity, which is extremely important for writing analytical answers in the mains. They will really help with an excellent combina

With a CUET score of 224/800, your chances for admission to Delhi University (DU) for programs like B.A. (Hons) English, Political Science, or B.A. LL.B. may be limited, especially for more competitive colleges. However, you may still have opportunities in less competitive colleges or campuses within DU. Based on past trends, colleges with relatively lower cutoffs, like Zakir Husain College or Bhim Rao Ambedkar College, could be potential options, particularly for Political Science. For courses like B.A. (Hons) English, the cutoffs tend to be higher, especially in North Campus colleges.
