Question by Sarthak on Feb 25, 2025Hindi

I have got 94.43 percentile in jee main 2025. In which NIT's, IIT's can I get CSE, ECE, AI or IT branch? I'm from OBC category. State- UP

Ans: Sarthak, To get an approximate idea about your eligibility for any particular institute/branch, please follow these steps: 1. Calculate your approximate rank based on your percentile using a Google search. 2. Check the JoSAA opening and closing ranks for 2024 to get a general idea of the institutes and branches you might be eligible for, based on your category (OBC). Make sure you fill in your preferences accordingly during the actual JoSAA counselling process after JEE Advanced. 3. To better understand the JoSAA counselling process, I recommend watching an EduJob360 video if time permits. 4. Additionally, it’s advisable to appear for 3-4 more entrance exams as backups. Relying only on JEE may limit your options, so it's good to have a broader range of choices to ensure you select the most suitable path for you. All the Best for Your Prosperous Future.

Hi sir, I got 89.314 percentile in jee mains 2025.. I'm from sc catagory and also from West Bengal.. Will I get CSE or ECE branch in good NITs?

Ans: CSE Possibilities in NITs
NIT Agartala – High chance for CSE in later rounds.
NIT Mizoram, NIT Meghalaya, NIT Arunachal Pradesh, NIT Nagaland, NIT Sikkim – High chance for CSE.
NIT Silchar – Possible for CSE in later rounds (since it's your home state NIT).

ECE Possibilities in NITs
NIT Silchar – High chance for ECE due to Home State Quota.
NIT Jalandhar, NIT Raipur, NIT Patna, NIT Hamirpur – Possible for ECE.
NIT Durgapur (Home State) – Medium chance for ECE, but depends on final cutoffs.

Sir I have 47428 rank in JEE MAINS 2025 and I belong to General Category (Male) [Domicile: Karnataka]. Please advice on what all NITs I can get into along with the branch. My preference would be to pursue CSE in a good NIT. Is it possible?

Ans: With a JEE Main rank of 47,428 (General, Karnataka), securing CSE in top NITs (e.g., NIT Surathkal, Trichy) is unlikely, as their 2024 cutoff ranges for CSE were 1,423–16,177 (OS quota). However, newer NITs like NIT Arunachal Pradesh (CSE cutoff: ~22,580–47,057) or NIT Mizoram (CSE cutoff: ~28,174–50,571) may offer seats in later rounds if cutoffs drop marginally. For non-CSE branches, Civil/Mechanical Engineering at NIT Goa (cutoff: ~36,894–57,268) or NIT Meghalaya (Mechanical cutoff: ~33,505–42,335) are feasible. Prioritize ECE/IT at NIT Silchar (ECE cutoff: ~15,236–21,169) or NIT Uttarakhand (IT cutoff: ~24,340) if tech roles are preferred. Explore state colleges via KCET (e.g., UVCE, BIT Bengaluru) for CSE opportunities or consider upgrading via CSAB special rounds. All the BEST for your Admission & a Prosperous Future!

What is possible with jee main rank 37800 for general, male , West Bengal

Ans: At this rank, CSE, IT, ECE, and Mathematics & Computing at NIT Durgapur are difficult, but you may have fair chances in Mechanical, Chemical, Civil, Metallurgical & Materials, Biotechnology, and possibly lower integrated MSc options, especially in later JoSAA/CSAB rounds. NIT Durgapur’s 2025 OPEN closing range went up to around 58,659 for its least competitive programme. For IIITs, you can try IIIT Kalyani ECE, as 2025 ECE closing was reported around 39,257, but CSE is difficult. Additionally, please review the JoSAA opening and closing ranks from the last 2-3 years to gain further insights and better understand admission trends before filling your choices. Keep these backup options also ready: IIEST Shibpur for lower branches through CSAB, WBJEE state colleges like Heritage, IEM, and Techno Main in Salt Lake, plus private engineering colleges. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

Ans: HI HARSHADA,
GREETINGS FROM THE REDIFFGURUS!
In the past, you regarded your friend as your guru rather than your parents. This suggests that you might easily be persuaded by others without thoroughly analyzing the situation. Based on this, I'm curious about your claim that you don't want to participate in the rat race.

Before I share my thoughts, I would like to know the following information from you so that I can provide a more tailored response. It’s up to you to decide whether to accept.

1. Have you compared medicine with other fields?
2. What do you understand about the medical profession after completing your studies?
3. What are your parents currently saying about your plans?
4. What makes you feel like you aren’t enjoying the process?
5. What are your future plans if you aren't interested in NEET?
6. Is this decision truly your own, or has it been influenced by someone else?

Please share your answers.

BEST WISHES.

Good Morning Sir My daughter, SC category Rank:19799 and CRL:3,16760.Does she have any chance of getting into NITs or IIITs or GFTIs?

Ans: HI JANAR SIR,
GREETINGS FROM THE REDIFFGURUS!

Less competitive branches in mid-tier NITs such as Raipur, Silchar, and Hamirpur may offer opportunities to secure admission in Chemical, Civil, or Mining Engineering.

There are good chances of obtaining core branches like Mechanical, Civil, or Electrical Engineering in newer NITs such as NIT Mizoram, NIT Nagaland, NIT Sikkim, and NIT Srinagar, as well as in newer IIITs like Manipur, Dharwad, and Agartala.

Regarding GFTIs (Government Funded Technical Institutes), core engineering programs are available at BIT Mesra and IIEST Shibpur. In Silchar and CU, programs like Computer Science Engineering (CSE) and Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) are accessible. Additionally, in lower-tier GFTIs such as Srinagar, PEC Chandigarh, and SPA, there are opportunities to secure admission in top branches.

BEST WISHES.

Based on your son's category and domicile, it is a bit difficult, but he stands a competitive chance for admission into Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) or ECE specializations at NIT Warangal, especially in the later or special rounds. He also has strong possibilities for Electrical, Mechanical, Chemical, or Civil Engineering at NIT Warangal.

Additionally, pursuing Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics (AI & DA) at IIIT Sricity is a viable and safe option.

Hello sir I secured 461117 rank in jee mains 2026 as an EWS student which is not well rank but I don't want to take drop for a year JEE presentation so I want to take an addmission in btech cse program and my home state is odisha so I want to know in which government engeneering colleges or best private colleges with low fee and well ROI can I take addmission in Colleges like VSSUT,OUTR,IGIT Sarang and silicon university bhubaneswar in CSE btech. Career

Ans: Chances with CSE at VSSUT/OUTR seem dim/nil. IGIT CSE is difficult/borderline. But private options like Silicon University and other Odisha private colleges are realistic for CSE. In government colleges, target lower branches at Indira Gandhi Institute of Technology, Sarang, or lower-tier state colleges rather than top Odisha govt CSE.

Good luck.
