What do the last few cutoffs suggest
The last admission list says stiff competition in courses in commerce and professional programmes at the top colleges under MMU. Courses like BCom, BCom Accounting and Finance, BMS, BAF and Psychology are still in high demand. The cutoffs for leading Colleges remain steep even in the 3rd round of admissions.
Some of the self-financing courses at the 1st division colleges have cutoffs above 97 per cent in the 3rd round, and other colleges are opening admissions at lower percentages depending on the demand of the course and availability of seats. The 3rd round in most of these colleges reflects the trend of student migration, as many students opt to the course of their choice in colleges where they can secure a seat in the previous rounds.

Candidates whose names have landed in the third merit list should immediately start the admission process by verifying the documents and paying the fees.
