How much Cut-off is required for a BC candidate to get admission in PSG, CEG, Madras institute of technology, and main colleges in TN?
There is no fixed cut-off that can be considered a benchmark. Depending upon the 12th standard marks obtained by the students in that year, it changes more or less every year. Generally, the higher-ranked colleges get higher cut-offs. Anna University constituent colleges such as CEG and MIT always have higher cut-offs compared to PSG and so on.
The table below will give the TNEA 2020 counseling cut-offs for the Other Backward Class (OBC), Most Backward Class (MBC), and Backward Class Muslims (BCM) of some common and popular engineering branches

Cut-offs are dependent on the popularity of the courses and the branches. Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering (CSE), Electronics and Communications Engineering (ECE), Electrical and Electronics Engineering (EEE) also demand higher cut-offs than other branches in the same college.
Is the TNEA (Anna University, Tamil Nadu) paper easy to crack?
The simple answer to this question is yes, it is indeed quite easy to crack TNEA. This is because I know a friend who had not studied at all and started preparing just before the exam. He did not even understand the difficult concepts and yet managed to score 197.5/200. He shared what steps he took to crack the exam
-
He studied exactly according to Blueprint
-
He learned the previously asked questions
-
He skipped all the difficult topics and focussed on mastering the simple ones instead
-
He learn the key points well as marks are allotted for key points mainly
-
All the one-word answers usually come from the back of the chapter so he studied them well.
-
Since there are no practical tests you get almost full marks in practicals at Anna University
So we can say cracking the exam is not that difficult but understanding the concepts is.
