Srinagar: Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, whose two sons study in a Delhi school, is worried over the high cut-offs for admissions to colleges in the national capital.
"Worry? I'm terrified for my sons because in five years, when Zamir (Omar's son) moves to college, the cut-offs will be even more insane," Omar wrote on micro-blogging site twitter.com.
Expressing bemusement over the high cut-offs, Omar asked, "if 100 per cent is the minimum requirement to be considered for admission, are there kids coming with more than 100 out of 100?"
The Chief Minister said he was happy that he finished college 20 years ago as the present cut-offs were "scary".
"With these kinds of cut-off marks, I'd have been doing a correspondence course because I wouldn't have even gotten a 'pass course' admission," he said.
