Cut-off is no joke 📉
You need a 96% in Class 12 and a banger CUET-UG score to even sniff this 46-seat cohort. It’s LSR—expect the competition to be fierce.
The verdict
Good fit
LSR is DU royalty—A++ NAAC, #10 NIRF, and a total fee of just ₹61k for the entire degree. The Philosophy Hons track is perfect if you’re eyeing civil services, public policy, academia, or content strategy. The 60% placement rate is healthy for a pure humanities course, but forget mass corporate recruitments; think tanks, NGOs, and publishing houses are the main move. If arguing about ethics, logic, and the nature of mind excites you more than Excel sheets, this is a solid bet. Just respect the 96% cutoff and prep hard for CUET-UG.
