Expected AILET SC Category Cutoff 2026

The AILET SC category cutoff 2026 is expected to be around AIR 1750 for the closing cutoff. The official cutoff ranks for all categories are likely to be published in early January 2026. The AILET SC category cutoff will be released separately for each qualifying round. The cutoff varies every year based on the overall performance of the test-takers. Several important factors like the seat availability, exam difficulty and reservation policy play a crucial role in determining the AILET SC category cutoff. The SC category cutoff is usually lower than the general category cutoff. In general, the AILET SC category cutoff usually ranges between 45 to 55 marks out of 150.

The AILET 2026 exam is set to be conducted on December 14, 2025, from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. The National Law University in Delhi will conduct the same for admission to BA LLB and LLM courses. The category-wise cutoffs for all categories will differ for the two courses. According to the past years’ trends in the AILET SC category cutoffs, the graph has only increased in recent years. Only the students who meet the cutoff requirements will be shortlisted for the BA LLB counselling process. All the category-wise cutoffs for AILET will be released on the official portal of NLU Delhi.

Hey, with an All India Rank of 1,22,590 in NEET PG as a PWD candidate, getting a clinical branch seat is very unlikely, especially in government colleges or popular clinical specialties like Medicine, Surgery, Pediatrics etc. Cut-offs for those tend to close far earlier (much better ranks). You can aim for non-clinical / pre-clinical / para-clinical branches (Anatomy, Physiology, Community Medicine, etc.), or possibly less competitive clinical branches in private colleges.
