The second cut-off list issued on Friday brought good news for students planning to study Science at the Delhi University as the list showed an overall drop of between 2 and 5 per cent in all top colleges.

The news, though, is not so cheerful for those wanting to pursue Commerce and Eco nomics. Many colleges have closed admissions in these courses, and where admissions are still open cut-offs dipped only marginally.

North Campus colleges like Hans Raj, KMC and Ramjas registered a drop of 2-3 percent in Science, while it was nearly 5 per cent in Khalsa, Shivaji and Zakir Hussain. At KMC, cut-offs for Zoology (Hons) dropped by .5 per cent, and reduced by a whopping 5 per cent for Botany (Hons).

BSc in Physical Science and Applied Sci- ences meanwhile saw an average of 7 per cent drop in cut-offs across all colleges. While Deen Dayal Upadhyaya, KMC and Miranda House colleges closed admissions in Maths (Hons), Deen Dayal Upadhyaya and IP Col- lege for Women downed shutters in BSc Computer Science

Sri Venkateswara College principal Dr A Shankara Reddy attributed the drop in cut-off percentages in science courses as result of "an attempt to stabilise cut-offs this year. Students with high marks anyway want to move on from a BSc course to Engineering and Medicine."

As many as 14 colleges, including Gargi, SRCC and Ramjas, closed admissions for BCom (Hons) nearly 60 DU colleges offer Bcom (H).

In Economics (Honours), the cut-offs dropped by a mere 1 per cent to 92 per cent at Hans Raj while admissions in the course were closed in Daulat Ram, Jesus and Mary, Kalindi, KiroriMal, Maitereyi, and PGDAV colleges.

Admission to BCom (Hons) list is however still open in SRCC, Hindu, Hansraj and Miranda. In Arts, admission is still open in `elite' courses like English (Hons) in many colleges. LSR faculty member Kanika Khandelwal said, "This list proves that there were not many who scored over 95 per cent." So, while these students applied everywhere, and thus created the high cut-offs in the first list, the seats are now open as the high-scorers have opted for their curse, and colleges, she said.
