TS LAWCET 2026 Overall Pass Percentage
The overall pass percentage for TS LAWCET 2026 reflects the share of students who met the minimum qualifying marks out of all those who appeared in the exam. TGCHE publishes a detailed result statistics report on the official website along with the result declaration. The table below captures key numbers from the 2026 result.
| Statistic | TS LAWCET 2026 |
|---|---|
| Total Registered Students | ~30,000 |
| Total Appeared Students | ~27,000 |
| Total Qualified Students (OC criteria) | ~17,000 |
| Overall Pass Percentage | ~63% |
| Qualifying Marks — OC/General/EWS | 48 out of 120 (40%) |
| Qualifying Marks — SC/ST | No minimum; rank awarded to all appeared |
The pass percentage is calculated on the basis of appeared students, not registered students. A student who registered but did not appear is excluded from the denominator. Only students who scored 48 or more marks are treated as "qualified" under the OC criteria. SC and ST students receive a rank regardless of score, but their rank within the reserved quota determines seat allotment chances during counselling.
TS LAWCET 2026 Category-Wise Pass Percentage
Category-wise analysis of the TS LAWCET 2026 result shows how students from different reservation groups performed. OC students typically record the highest pass rates, while SC and ST students show lower rates because many score below 48 marks — even though they still receive ranks within their reserved quota. The table below presents the category-wise breakdown based on 2026 result trends and data from previous years.
| Category | Approx. Pass Percentage (2026) |
|---|---|
| OC (Open Category) | ~70% |
| EWS (Economically Weaker Section) | ~68% |
| BC-A | ~65% |
| BC-B | ~64% |
| BC-C | ~63% |
| BC-D | ~62% |
| BC-E | ~60% |
| SC | ~45% |
| ST | ~38% |
SC and ST students are exempt from the 40% minimum qualifying marks rule for receiving a rank. Even students from these categories who score below 48 marks participate in the reserved-quota seat allotment based on their rank. The lower pass percentages for SC and ST do not mean these students cannot secure seats — they compete within their own reserved quota. The official category-wise figures will be confirmed by TGCHE through the detailed statistics report on the official portal.
TS LAWCET 2026 Gender-Wise Pass Percentage
Gender-wise analysis of the TS LAWCET 2026 result reveals that female students outperformed male students by a notable margin. This trend has been consistent across multiple years and reflects the growing participation and performance of women in legal education in Telangana.
| Gender | Approx. Pass Percentage (2026) |
|---|---|
| Female | ~68% |
| Male | ~60% |
| Transgender | Data to be released by TGCHE |
Female students have recorded a pass percentage approximately 8 percentage points higher than male students in TS LAWCET 2026. This pattern aligns with national trends in law entrance exams, where female enrolment and performance have grown significantly over the past decade. The official gender-wise breakdown will be confirmed in the TGCHE statistics report published on the official portal.
TS LAWCET Year-Wise Pass Percentage Trend
Reviewing the year-wise pass percentage helps you understand how competition and exam difficulty have changed across sessions. The data below is based on TGCHE result statistics from recent years.
| Year | Total Appeared | Total Qualified | Pass Percentage |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026 | ~27,000 | ~17,000 | ~63% |
| 2025 | ~26,000 | ~16,120 | ~62% |
| 2024 | ~25,000 | ~15,250 | ~61% |
| 2023 | ~24,000 | ~14,400 | ~60% |
The pass percentage has seen a gradual upward trend over the years, indicating that more students are preparing systematically for the exam. However, the number of law college seats in Telangana has not grown at the same pace as the qualifying student pool, which means a strong rank remains essential for securing admission in a preferred college even after clearing the qualifying threshold.
How TS LAWCET 2026 Pass Percentage is Calculated
Understanding how pass percentage is derived helps you correctly interpret where you stand after the result.
- Formula: Pass Percentage = (Number of Qualified Students ÷ Number of Appeared Students) × 100
- For OC/General/EWS: scoring 48 or more out of 120 marks = qualified
- For SC/ST: no minimum marks required — appearing in the exam is enough to receive a rank
- Students who registered but did not appear are excluded from the calculation entirely
- Only qualified students (OC: ?48 marks) and all appeared SC/ST students receive a rank card used in counselling
The pass percentage figure published by TGCHE typically reflects only the OC-equivalent qualifying criteria (48 marks). SC and ST students who appear but score below 48 marks receive a category rank but are not counted in the overall "qualified" figure. This is why the published pass percentage may appear lower when SC/ST participation is proportionately high. The rank, not just the qualifying status, is what determines college admission during TS LAWCET 2026 counselling.
