Hello,

With 77.2 percentile , you have a fair chance of getting Civil Engineering at MBM in the spot round, as the cutoff usually stays around 70–75 percentile.

For Electrical Engineering , the cutoff is normally a bit higher (around 78–83 percentile), so your chances are low.

Hope it helps !

Hey! With a 77.2 percentile, it will be quite tough to get Civil or Electrical in MBM in the spot round. These branches usually have higher cutoffs and most seats get filled in earlier rounds. Spot rounds sometimes release leftover seats, but the chances for top branches are limited.

You can still try in the spot round, but it’s smart to keep backup options ready too, like other branches in MBM or similar colleges. Be flexible and choose branches with slightly lower demand to increase your chances. Always check the latest cutoff trends from previous years to make informed choices. Joining the spot round is still worth it, but don’t expect Civil or Electrical unless there’s a big drop in cutoff.

Good luck, and stay prepared with alternative branches just in case!

Hey Suhan:)

Thanks for reaching out!

With 77.2% percentile, your chances for civil or electrical at MBM spot round is possible but not guaranteed. It mainly depends on your category and whether you're a Rajasthan domicile . In previous years, spot round cut-offs for these branches were around 70-80%,so your score falls in that range. If you're from reserved category or Rajasthan domicile, your chances are better,but for general and outside Rajasthan it may be difficult. Still, you should definitely register and try in the spot round while also keeping some backup options ready.

All the best!

With your JEE Main CRL 476199 and OBC rank 173160, admission to Civil Engineering at Indira Gandhi Institute of Technology (IGIT), Sarang under JoSAA counseling is highly unlikely, since even civil branch closing ranks in IGIT usually remain within 50k–80k CRL (general) and much lower for OBC. However, you may try through state counseling (Odisha JEE) where cutoffs are sometimes more flexible, but chances are still very low. You should keep other private/state colleges as backup.

Hello Aspirant,

A Civil Engineering bachelor's degree followed by a master's in Architecture is a valid path. The main difference is that a B.Arch focuses on design, while Civil Engineering emphasizes structure and safety. Your combination would make you a stronger candidate in firms that need both design and structural expertise. It is a worthwhile path, though it will take a longer time to get licensed.

Hello,

That’s a good plan BA Psychology is a good choice because it helps in UPSC preparation (topics like human behavior, society, ethics). Doing Civil Services prep after graduation makes sense. If UPSC doesn’t work out, PG in Canada is a great backup—you’ll have both academic + global career options. Just make sure to:

• Maintain strong academics in BA.
• Build writing and current affairs skills for UPSC.
• Prepare early for IELTS/TOEFL if you’re serious about Canada.

Your plan is ambitious but very practical if you stay consistent.

Thank you and all the best!

your career plan is valid as it provide knowledge which is relevant to become ips officer but you need to prepare for other subjects too because UPSC's ips broad syllabus includes Indian governance and current affairs too.

I advice to choose b.a in psychology in india as this avoids the need for an equivalency certificate after your graduation from canadian universities from the Association of Indian Universities (AIU) that is mandatory for foreign degrees.

But still if you want to prefer canadian degree then you can consider Simon Fraser University and the University of Windsor which offer a combined degree B.A. in Psychology and Criminology.

Hope it helps...

hello kashish , you have not specified which colleage or university you are referring to as engineering fees differs drastically from collage to collage. For IITs it's around 10-12 lakhs for 4 years and for NITs it's around 8-10 Lakhs . For private collages it's around 12-15 lakhs . Government collages also provide incentives for econimically backward calsses.

Good afternoon, here’s a breakdown of BTech Civil Engineering fee structures across different types of colleges in India:

Government Colleges

Fee Range: 50,000 to 1,50,000 per semester

Examples:

NIT Delhi: 22,833/semester + 10,000 hostel

MNIT Jaipur: 62,500/semester + 30,000 hostel

IITs: 2,00,000 to 3,00,000 per semester

Total (4 Years)    4,55,000 – 8,65,000

Private Colleges

Fee Range: 1,50,000 to 5,00,000 per semester

Examples:

VIT Vellore: Around 1,98,000/year

BITS Pilani: 2,00,000+ per semester

Graphic Era University: 1,38,700 to 1,58,650 per semester depending on merit, with scholarships available

Total (4 Years)    8,20,000 – 19,40,000

If you qualify for merit-based or government scholarships:

You could save 50,000 to 2,00,000+ over 4 years.

Some colleges waive hostel fees or offer fee reimbursement for reserved categories.

Note: these numbers are for only fee structure excluded some other rest miscellaneous spends.

The cost of a three-year civil engineering program in India varies significantly based on the type of institution. Government colleges, including prestigious IITs and NITs, generally have lower tuition fees, ranging from 50,000 to 2,00,000 per semester.

Premier institutes like the IITs may have higher fees, potentially between 2,00,000 and 3,00,000 per semester.

Private colleges, on the other hand, typically have higher fees, ranging from 1,50,000 to 5,00,000 per semester.

This means the total three-year cost for tuition alone could range from approximately 3 lakh to 30 lakh or more, depending on the chosen institution.

In addition to tuition, students should also account for other expenses like hostel fees, mess charges, examination fees, laboratory fees, and the cost of study materials. Living expenses, such as rent, food, and transportation, can also significantly impact the overall cost, varying depending on the city and individual lifestyle choices.

To help manage the costs, various scholarship and financial aid options are available for eligible students.
