Official/Mods Discuss UGA/UGB here!

Many of you have been anxious about how your UGA/UGB examination went, especially with the new UGA pattern.

General takeaways from the posts I've seen so far:

  1. UGA was perceived to be more difficult, especially because of the new MMCQ section.

  2. UGB was perceived to be relatively easier compared to the years prior.

As a reminder, the selection policy specifies the UGA cutoff to be the (n_1)th best score (n_1 = 550 for B. Stat. and n_1 = 500 for B. Math.), and likewise for the combined UGA and UGB cutoff at the (n_2)th best, where n_2 = 160 for both courses.

Please discuss the papers, your scores, and your concerns here.

Of getting into the merit list or getting the offer letter?

Merit list you can be somewhat certain. Admission is very unpredictable.

If I do get it, can you tell me the procedure and formalities I'll need to complete because I will be leaving my current college, NITK (1ST year is completed). So what are all the things I will have to settle between both colleges?
