Sir can we get in sastra ece with 970 inter marks and 81 percentile in jee mains ...

Ans: Chaithanya, With 97% in Class 12 board exams and 81 JEE Main percentile, admission to Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) at SASTRA University is challenging but marginally feasible under Stream 1, which combines JEE Main scores (25% weightage) and normalized board marks (75% weightage). Your combined score would approximate 93 [(0.25×81)+(0.75×97)], aligning with 2024 cutoff trends where ECE required scores of 90–95 for Stream 1. However, JEE Main ranks corresponding to 81 percentile (~160,000–200,000) fall far below SASTRA’s historical ECE Stream 1 cutoff ranks (1,500–2,500). Under Stream 2 (30% seats based solely on normalized board marks), your 97% translates to a normalized score of ~97–100 (assuming the board’s top scorer is ≤97%), likely securing a rank within 1,000–2,000, competitive for ECE. While Stream 1 remains uncertain due to low JEE percentile, Stream 2 offers a viable pathway. Recommendation: Apply for both streams, prioritizing Stream 2 during counselling, and consider backups like IT or Mechanical Engineering at SASTRA or explore VIT-AP ECE (JEE Main cutoff ~80–85 percentile) for assured admission. All the BEST for your Admission & a Prosperous Future!
