Admissions to IITs
MPBSE students extend CBSE’s benefit over CISCE
Top 20% set at 436/500 marks for CBSE, 16 marks less than CISCE


Students from CBSE (central board of secondary education) get an advantage in admissions to IITs 2023, as the cut off in general category is 16 marks less than CISCE (council for the Indian school certificate examinations).
Further, the benefit extends to students who attempted class 12 board examination at Madhya Pradesh Board of Secondary Education (MPBSE). MPBSE students get the benefit as per Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JOSAA) rule.
The rule said, “In case a Board does not provide information about the cut-off for the top 20 percentile, the candidate will have to produce a certificate from the respective Board stating that he/she falls within the top 20 percentile of successful candidates. If the candidate fails to do so, then the cut-off marks, in the respective categories, for the Central Board of Secondary Education will be used.”
MPBSE has not provided any specific list, hence, the cut off would be same as CBSE.
JOSAA released Category-Wise Top 20-Percentile Cut-Off Marks (Out Of 500), wherein the cut off for CISCE is higher as compared to students from CBSE. The cut off is only valid for 2022 Class 12 examination and specifically released for admission to Indian Institutes of Technology (IIT) only.
Further, in other categories also, some CBSE students might get a benefit with the cut-off.
