Dear Student, Admission to Holy Mother PG College is done through TS ICET exam based on which cutoff is released every year. Holy Mother P.G. College cutoff 2023 has not been released yet. However, as per previous years cutoff, the closing rank was 34106. So, we can expect Holy Mother P.G. College cutoff 2023 to be in between 34105 to 34110. Since your rank is closer to this range, there might be a possibility that you will be eligible for 2nd phase counselling. However, you should wait for the official cutoff to be sure.
