Hello sir/ madam I had given my improvement exam in June 2025 and want to give it again so is it possible to give the next improvement exam in June 2026 or do i compulsorily have to give it in Feb 2026

Ans: Amritapuri/Chennai is possible mainly in later rounds (with a better chance at Chennai). CSE Slab-1 at Amaravati is possible, but CSE Slab-1 at Amritapuri/Chennai is unlikely.

Good luck.

Ans: You can expect DTU/NSUT ECE, EE, EP/SE/ICE. IIITM Gwalior is a realistic and strong JoSAA backup option. You can expect CSE-related branches here.

Good luck.

Ans: Deva, With 94.9 percentile in JEE Main 2026, your likely CRL may be around 75,000–80,000. For Amrita Coimbatore, chances for CSE Core are difficult, because CSE at Coimbatore generally needs a very strong AEEE/JEE rank; recent estimates place Coimbatore CSE around 92–99 percentile for home-state/AEEE category and 95–99.5 for other-state, while ECE is around 85–95 home-state and 90–97 other-state. Since Tamil Nadu is relevant for Coimbatore home-state consideration, ECE at Coimbatore is possible/moderate, while CSE specialization may be a better try than CSE Core. For SASTRA, chances are better, especially if your Class 12 marks are strong. SASTRA uses JEE Main + Class 12 marks for 70% seats and Class 12 marks only for 30% seats. Prefer: SASTRA CSE/IT → Amrita Coimbatore ECE → Amrita CSE-specialization/Amritapuri/Chennai → VIT/SRM/SSN/SNU/Sathyabhama/Thiagarajar/Kumaraguru, etc. as backups. All the Best for Your Prosperous Future!

Ans: Madhuri, With AEEE rank 8,600, chances are good for ECE/EEE/ELC in major campuses, but CSE Core depends strongly on the home state/other state quota, fee slab, and round movement. Recent 2025 rank estimates show Coimbatore CSE: 700–8000 for Home State / 350–4000 for Other State students, so 8,600 is slightly risky there. Amritapuri CSE: 1500–9000 for Home State/800–5000 for Other State students, so possible if Home State and difficult if Other State. CSE specialization at Amritapuri may be possible up to around 11k HS, but it's tougher for OS. ECE is more realistic in Coimbatore, Amritapuri, and Bengaluru, and EEE/ELC chances are stronger. Preference order can be Coimbatore CSE/CSE-Specialisation if available, Amritapuri CSE/CSE-Specialisation, Bengaluru CSE-S/ECE, Chennai/Amaravati CSE, and then ECE at Coimbatore/Amritapuri/Bengaluru. If possible, have 3-4 other backup options. All the Best for Your Prosperous Future!

Ans: At the 84th percentile, the expected CRL may be around 2.3–2.5 lakh, so CSE Core in NIT/IIIT/GFTI through JoSAA is very unlikely. You can try CSAB Special Round only as a chance for lower-demand branches, not CSE Core. The best practical route is to use AP EAPCET/AP counselling and target Andhra University College of Engineering, JNTU Kakinada/Anantapur, SVUCE Tirupati, GVPCE Visakhapatnam, VR Siddhartha, RVR & JC, Vignan, SRKR, Vishnu Institute, GMRIT for CSE/IT/AI-DS if rank permits. AP EAPCET colleges and rank-wise lists are published through APSCHE/counselling sources. Backup private options with scholarships: VIT-AP, SRM-AP, Amrita Amaravati, KL University, LPU, Chandigarh University, UPES, Bennett. Prefer colleges giving merit scholarships based on 92% IPE/JEE/AP EAPCET, with verified CSE placement data. All the Best for Your Son's Prosperous Future!

Ans: Joseph, With AEEE rank 20,533, CSE Core at Amrita Amritapuri is unlikely, especially if you are from another state. Amrita’s official admission page says there is no fixed cutoff; allotment depends on AEEE/JEE rank, seat availability and preferences each year. Recent rank-vs-branch estimates show Amritapuri CSE around 1.5k–9k for Home State and 800–5000 for Other State, while CSE specializations may stretch slightly higher but still generally be below your rank. Older published cutoff data also placed Amritapuri CSE around 6,940 Open / 16,547 State, indicating 20,533 is risky for core CSE. Better Amrita backups: try ECE, EEE, Mechanical, Electronics & Computer Engineering, or lower-demand branches in Amritapuri, Chennai, Amaravati, or Bengaluru. Apply also to VIT-AP, SRM-AP, KL University, etc. All the Best for Your Prosperous Future!

Ans: To be eligible for engineering admissions via MHT CET, candidates must pass Class 12 (or equivalent) with Physics, Mathematics compulsory, plus Chemistry/Biology/Biotech/Technical Vocational subject, securing minimum 45% aggregate marks (40% for reserved categories/PwD from Maharashtra State only). There are no minimum marks required in the MHT CET exam itself—just appear in all relevant subjects and get a non-zero score to qualify for counseling; admission depends on percentile/rank. All Indian nationals are eligible with no age limit. For further details, please check official website of 'mahacet'. All the Best for Your Prosperous Future!

Ans: Eetting ECE at Coimbatore is possible, but Slab 1 is very unlikely; expect mostly Slab 2/3 chances in later rounds.

Good luck.

Ans: You can expect Mechanical and related branches in Coimbatore, especially in higher fee slabs/later rounds. It is better to keep an alternative option as a backup.

Good luck.
