Respected TEAM ADVISORS, My Son secured School Topper in IGCSE [ Cambridge Curriculum ] Grade 12 Exam. Biology 90, Chemistry 90, Physics 88 and Mathematics 89. Similarly IGCSE Grade 10 and Grade 11 also School Topper. In VIT Entrance, he comes under Phase 3 and Counselling this week. He has also applied SSN Engineering College. He will appear for SSN Entrance Exam. If it is an IGCSE [ Cambridge ] Syllabus though he is the School Topper, My Son Cut Off is 188% only. Shall My Son get B. Tech. [ CSE ]., in SSN [ OR ] VIT., on Merit Basis under IGCSE Marks. If any Priority given to IGCSE [ Cambridge ] curriculum by SSN Chennai [ OR ] VIT., Chennai.
Ans: Sankaran Sir, TN State Board Students have more advantage of securing seats through TNEA counselling, compared to other Board Students (even CBSE). Your son’s excellent IGCSE scores and topper status are commendable, but admission to B.Tech CSE at VIT Chennai or SSN College depends mainly on entrance exam ranks. For VIT Chennai, the expected cutoff rank for Category 4 (including IGCSE students) in CSE is around 21,900 to 22,900 in 2025. Admission is based on VITEEE rank, not board marks alone, and no special priority is given solely for IGCSE curriculum. At SSN, admission considers both the entrance exam score and board marks; being an IGCSE topper is advantageous but must be supported by a strong SSN entrance exam result. Both institutes emphasize merit through entrance performance. Your son should focus on securing a good rank in VITEEE or SSN entrance to maximize admission chances in CSE. As more back-ups, it is advisable to apply also to Sastra | Sathyabhama | Karunya Universities. All the best for your son's admissions and a bright future!

Sir, i have CRL 133628 in jee main, General Category Delhi domicile please suggest me best for Cse
Ans: Jindal, Here is, How to Predict Your Chances of Admission into NIT or IIIT or GFTI After JEE Main/Advanced Results – A Step-by-Step Guide

Providing precise admission chances for each student can be challenging. Some reputed educational websites offer ‘College Predictor’ tools where you can check possible college options based on your percentile, category, and preferences. However, for a more accurate understanding, here’s a simple yet effective 9-step method using JoSAA’s past-year opening and closing ranks. This approach gives you a fair estimate (though not 100% exact) of your admission chances based on the previous year’s data.

Step-by-Step Guide to Check Your Admission Chances Using JoSAA Data
Step 1: Collect Your Key Details
Before starting, note down the following details:

Your JEE Main percentile
Your category (General-Open, SC, ST, OBC-NCL, EWS, PwD categories)
Preferred institute types (NIT, IIIT, GFTI)
Preferred locations (or if you're open to any location in India)
List of at least 3 preferred academic programs (branches) as backups (instead of relying on just one option)
Step 2: Access JoSAA’s Official Opening & Closing Ranks
Go to Google and type: JoSAA Opening & Closing Ranks 2024
Click on the first search result (official JoSAA website).
You will land directly on JoSAA’s portal, where you can enter your details to check past-year cutoffs.
Step 3: Select the Round Number
JoSAA conducts five rounds of counseling.
For a safer estimate, choose Round 4, as most admissions are settled by this round.
Step 4: Choose the Institute Type
Select NIT, IIIT, or GFTI, depending on your preference.
If you are open to all types of institutes, check them one by one instead of selecting all at once.
Step 5: Select the Institute Name (Based on Location)
It is recommended to check institutes one by one, based on your preferred locations.
Avoid selecting ‘ALL’ at once, as it may create confusion.
Step 6: Select Your Preferred Academic Program (Branch)
Enter the branches you are interested in, one at a time, in your preferred order.
Step 7: Submit and Analyze Results
After selecting the relevant details, click the ‘SUBMIT’ button.
The system will display Opening & Closing Ranks of the selected institute and branch for different categories.
Step 8: Note Down the Opening & Closing Ranks
Maintain a notebook or diary to record the Opening & Closing Ranks for each institute and branch you are interested in.
This will serve as a quick reference during JoSAA counseling.
Step 9: Adjust Your Expectations on a Safer Side
Since Opening & Closing Ranks fluctuate slightly each year, always adjust the numbers for safety.
Example Calculation:
If the Opening & Closing Ranks for NIT Delhi | Mechanical Engineering | OPEN Category show 8622 & 26186 (for Home State), consider adjusting them to 8300 & 23000 (on a safer side).
If the Female Category rank is 34334 & 36212, adjust it to 31000 & 33000.
Follow this approach for Other State candidates and different categories.
Pro Tip: Adjust your expected rank slightly lower than the previous year's cutoffs for realistic expectations during JoSAA counseling.

Can This Method Be Used for JEE April & JEE Advanced?
Yes! You can repeat the same steps after your April JEE Main results to refine your admission possibilities.
You can also follow a similar process for JEE Advanced cutoffs when applying for IITs.

However, have JAC/CSAB/All Private Engineering Colleges in and around Delhi as back-ups instead of relying only on JEE/JoSAA.
