What is the pass mark on TANCET to get into Anna University?

Piyush Marwah

There is no passing grade. It is determined by the cut-off point. The TANCET cut-off is determined by the following factors:

Availability of seats
Total number of applicants for TANCET
Total number of test participants
The exam's level of difficulty.

TANCET requires a score of 60-65 to achieve the 99%ile. The TANCET percentile score is calculated using the following formula:

Percentile Score on the TANCET: (Y/N)*100

In this case, Y represents the total number of test takers with a lower score. Whereas N denotes the total number of candidates who took the TANCET exam. A candidate who received a 97 percent score performed better than 97 percent of TANCET 2023 test-takers.
