A minimum graduation degree is essential for attending the PSU exams. The PSU exams are conducted according to the type of post and vacancies that come about in different companies. PSU such as BHEL, BARC, ISRO, NTPC, BEL, MPB etc do conduct exams. Regarding the cut off percentage it may also vary from organizations and type of posts. For general category it’s around 60%-70%. In case of the reserved categories it is around 50%. Since you have scored less than 60% it may be difficult for you to attend the PSU exams except in special cases where in the cut off marks may differ.
