Sir, I got 38 marks in Engineering Agricultural and Medical Common Entrance Test (EAMCET) out of 160. Can I qualify in that exam and I get the seat in engineering colleges?

The minimum marks required to qualify EAMCET examination is 40 marks. There is no minimum marks criteria for SC/ ST category candidates. As per the information you have mentioned in your query, you have scored 38 marks in EAMCET examination, so if you doesn’t belong to SC/ ST category, that means you haven’t qualified the EAMCET examination and you are not eligible to get admission through EAMCET.

As far as you are concerned about the passing criteria for EAMCET (Engineering, Agricultural, and Medical Common Entrance Test) is 25% of total marks i.e; 40 marks out of 160 marks. For candidates belonging to SC/ST/ PWD category candidates there is no requirement of minimum passing marks.

So, having managed 38 marks out of 160 marks in EAMCET, you will be considered as EAMCET qualified candidate only if you belong to reserved category.
