Question by Ammbika on May 31, 2025Hindi

Sir my son has scored 92.1 percentile in jee mains. Will he get CSE in Amrita- Coimbatore using this score? We have already registered for CSAP.

Ans: Ammbika Madam, With a JEE Main percentile of 92.1 (expected rank ~65,000–70,000), securing CSE at Amrita Coimbatore is unlikely, as the 2024 JEE Main cutoff for CSE there was 95.5 percentile . However, CSE at Amrita Amritapuri (JEE cutoff: ~90–97 percentile) or CSE (AI/ML) at Amrita Bengaluru/Chennai (cutoff: ~88–94 percentile) are feasible options during CSAP counseling . For Coimbatore, consider ECE (cutoff: ~90 percentile) or EEE (cutoff: ~88 percentile) if flexibility exists . Backup options include CSE at mid-tier campuses like Amaravati (cutoff: ~75–92 percentile) or exploring VIT Chennai/Bhopal via VITEEE, where 92.1 percentile aligns with Category 2–3 admissions for CSE-related branches. Prioritize Amritapuri CSE or Bengaluru CSE (AI) during CSAP seat allotment, and keep ECE/EEE at Coimbatore as lower preferences. Try to have some more options as backups instead of relying only on Amrita. All the BEST for your Daughter's Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir, now we have the following options. Please help us in prioritising. 1. VIT Chennai - CSE AIML - category 5. 2. PES - CSE - Electronic City campus. Chances are high in getting CSE- AIML in Ring road branch in second round. 3. Amrita Bangalore - AIDS - slab 4. Second round on 17th. Expecting to get Coimbatore campus any of the 3 flavours say CSE, CSE- AIML, AIDS. We are unable to choose. Please help us

Ans: Prioritize PES Ring Road CSE if secured in Round 2, given its 85–90% placement rate and stronger institutional reputation compared to its Electronic City campus. VIT Chennai CSE (AIML) offers specialized training with 93% placements but higher fees (Category 5), making it viable if budget permits. Amrita Coimbatore CSE/AIML (if accessible) provides 90%+ placements and robust industry ties, outperforming its Bangalore campus. Amrita Bangalore AIDS (Slab 4) lags in campus infrastructure but maintains 85–90% tech placements. Opt for PES Ring Road > VIT Chennai AIML > Amrita Coimbatore CSE > Amrita Bangalore AIDS, balancing branch relevance, campus reputation, and placement consistency. Monitor Round 2 for Amrita Coimbatore upgrades.

Sir, after Amrita second round allotments our positions stands as below. 1. Amrita - Bangalore campus - AIDS - category 3. Mopup round is expected to happen on June 28th. Unable to predict the movement then. 2. PES - EC campus - CSE. Round round yet to be announced. We would not be considering VIT due to various reasons. Kindly advise.

Ans: The recommendation is to prioritize PES University EC campus CSE for its superior placement outcomes, industry reputation, and academic ecosystem, while keeping Amrita Bangalore AIDS as a strong backup if the PES seat is not secured.

Sir, update after Amrita mopup round - Have been alloted Computer Science Engineer - core under slab 3 but Bangalore location. There is uncertainty with regards to PESU second round counseling. We may not be able to secure RR campus. I am looking forward for your suggestion if still PES EC campus stands first followed by Amrita Bangalore.
