Hello sir My son gets 35210 rank in mains, resident of Maharashtra, looking for CSE/ECS/EE
What are possibilities
Please guide on IIITs like Surat, vadodara, nagpur and Bhopal
Ans: At CRL 35,210, General male, Maharashtra, CSE in top NITs is difficult, but strong chances exist for CSE/ECE in several IIITs and ECE/EE in some NITs/GFTIs. JoSAA confirms Open-seat cut-offs are based on CRL rank.
For your target IIITs:
IIIT Surat – CSE is borderline/tough, but ECE is realistic. In 2025, IIIT Surat ECE closed around 31k–33k+, while CSE was around 24k–26k in regular rounds.
IIIT Vadodara / IIIT-Vadodara International Campus Diu – better chances for CSE/ECE, especially Diu campus.
IIIT Nagpur – ECE/EE-related branches possible; CSE tougher.
IIIT Bhopal – CSE tough but ECE/IT-related options possible.
Also try VNIT Nagpur (EE/Mechanical), MANIT Bhopal, SVNIT Surat, NIT Raipur, NIT Jalandhar for ECE/EE/lower CSE-allied branches. Backup: CSAB, MHT-CET CAP counselling, COEP/VJTI/SPIT/PICT, and good private colleges. Prioritise branch interest over only institute tag.
