My daughter scored 70 marks in manipal and90.60percent in pcme.What will be her expected rank in manipal.

Ans: With a MET score of 70/240 (falling below the 100–109 marks bracket linked to ranks 8,001–12,000) and 90.6% in PCME, your daughter’s expected MET rank is 35,000–45,000, as lower MET scores correlate with higher ranks. While her board marks are strong, MET ranks prioritize entrance scores over board performance, limiting their impact. Historical cutoffs show Mechanical Engineering at MIT Manipal closed at 20,920 in 2024, while newer campuses like Jaipur/Sikkim admit ranks up to 35,000+ for branches like Civil or Chemical Engineering. Given her rank range, prioritize non-core branches (e.g., Biotechnology, Civil) at Manipal Jaipur/Sikkim during counseling, or explore emerging specializations (IoT, Cyber-Physical Systems) in higher fee categories, while keeping regional private colleges as backups. All the BEST for your Daughter's Admission & a Prosperous Future!
