BHU ranks on a course-specific normalised merit score, not a raw CUET total, so these numbers are not comparable with DU. BHU publishes one seat total per programme and college. Category seats here are estimated from the 15% SC, 7.5% ST, 27% OBC, 10% EWS and 5% PwBD reservation rule, so small intakes can differ from the real allocation.
