FYJC Merit List 2020: Maharashtra merit list out with a rise in cut-off

FYJC merit list for the academic year 2020-2021 is out now. Students can check the same for admission purposes into the higher secondary courses. Students who have applied for the colleges can head onto the official colleges’ admission website to find out if they have made it into the 11th admission list.

This year, the Maharashtra board cancelled examinations due to the coronavirus pandemic situation. Thus the students who were registered in 2019-2020 classes have performed slightly better due to the average marking schemes followed by the boards. The result in 2020 was better, witnessing a slight increase in overall passing percentage than in 2019 across boards. As a result,  the cut-off level this year saw a certain rise in all colleges.

FYJC merit list out now 

The FYJC merit list was based upon the results of students in 2020 for various class 10th boards like SSC, ICSE, and CBSE boards. Students saw an overall improvement in gaining marks this year and so the rise in merit list cut off. The admission was undertaken with a centralised cut-off scheme, which is a centralised admission process or the CAP. Students were able to check the CAP list since Sunday that is August 30, 2020. This year, there are lesser seats allotted across all the streams in colleges. The students will thus face tough competition this year to get into popular colleges.
