Question by Arulmurugan on May 21, 2025

Sir, my daughter got pcm 160 cut off, so, for BE CSE which engineering college in tnea counseling will be best to choose.

Ans: Arulmurugan Sir, With a PCM score of 160 in TNEA 2025, securing admission in B.E. Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at top Tamil Nadu government colleges like Anna University, PSG Tech, or Coimbatore Institute of Technology is unlikely, as their CSE cutoffs range from around 185 to 200. However, your daughter has good chances in reputed government colleges with slightly lower cutoffs such as Government College of Engineering Salem, Tirunelveli, Bargur, and Srirangam, where CSE cutoffs are approximately 160-165. Additionally, private colleges like Dr. Mahalingam College of Engineering (Pollachi), Sri Krishna College of Engineering (Coimbatore), K. Ramakrishnan College (Trichy), and Mepco Schlenk Engineering College (Sivakasi) also offer CSE seats around this cutoff range. If flexible, considering related branches like Information Technology, Electronics, or Mechanical Engineering can improve admission prospects. Overall, focusing on government colleges with moderate cutoffs and reputed private colleges will provide the best options for CSE admission at a 160 PCM score in TNEA counseling. All the best for your daughter's admissions and a bright future!
