• Cutoffs in Round 2 typically see a marginal decline compared to Round 1 as candidates shift between colleges or courses. Broad indicative ranges being discussed include:
• Top-tier colleges (e.g., BJB Autonomous College, Ravenshaw University, Ramadevi Women's University, Gangadhar Meher University, Khallikote Unitary University): marks in the 85%–95% range, with minimal change expected in cutoffs.
• Second-tier autonomous colleges (e.g., Fakir Mohan Autonomous College Balasore, SCS Autonomous College Puri, Dhenkanal Autonomous College): candidates with 75%–85% marks may find good opportunities.
• Mid-tier district colleges (e.g., Banki Autonomous College, JKBK Government College, MPC Autonomous College Baripada): candidates scoring 68%–78% could see reasonable prospects.
• Colleges in districts like Angul, Bhadrak, and Jajpur: Science cutoffs may range roughly between 72% and 78%.
• Colleges with vacancies for mid- and lower-score candidates: Options may open up for those scoring 60%–70% and below 60% in later rounds, including the waiting list and spot admission phases.
• Popular Science subjects such as Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Zoology, and Arts subjects like Political Science, Economics, English, and Psychology, are expected to continue seeing strong demand with only marginal cutoff movement.
