DU first cut-off 2021 is higher than last year. Many colleges have even ask 100 per cent marks for admission to some popular courses in the first round.
Educationists have questioned the evaluation system of school boards, which, according to them, is the reason for high cut-off marks.
They said so many students getting cent percent marks also raise question on the integrity of those assigned to give marks.
"The cent per cent marks raise a question on the integrity of those assigned to give marks be it the board or the schools. Earlier there was thought given to organise an entrance test but that has not been done. If at this juncture, that could be done it would have been a good solution. If it's not done why can't Delhi University conduct an online interview. All the 10 students who have got 100 per cent scores can be assessed and then, one of them can be chosen. This has to be innovated specially in the Covid pandemic," said Professor Arbind Jha of IGNOU.
