Hello Amit,

All of the options are great, but ultimately your choice should depend on what interests you, your potential long-term career goals, and what environment you feel comfortable working and thriving in.

1. If you are more inclined towards Electronics or Electrical engineering, then I would suggest that IIT Delhi (Electrical or ECE at IIT Dhanbad) is your best option, specifically due to placement metrics, research output and startup culture.
2. If you are open to Chemical Engineering, both IIT Delhi and IIT Madras are top institutes, with excellent faculty and infrastructure with a very strong Chemical department at IIT Madras.
3. IIT Delhi has an edge in terms of geographic location and exposure to industry.
4. IIT Madras has a strong academic ecosystem and encourages a very much collaborative culture.

If you are unsure as to what department/branch to pick prioritize institute and potential for flexibility. IIT Delhi has offered stronger chances for branch change and better opportunities overall.

With a JEE Mains rank around 203,820, chances of getting top NITs or IIITs are low. You may get admission in some state-level or private engineering colleges across India. Branches like ECE or EE are more likely than CSE or IT, as those are highly competitive. Consider looking into newer NITs or private universities too.

50-55 marks in CGPET (Chhattisgarh Pre-Engineering Test) may make it difficult to secure the Electrical Engineering branch at BIT Durg (Bhagwant Institute of Technology, Durg) , as the cutoff varies each year based on competition. However, you still have a chance depending on:

• Electrical Engineering usually has a cutoff around 60-80 marks (varies yearly).

• With 50-55 marks , you might get:

  • Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE)

  • Mechanical Engineering

  • Civil Engineering

• Apply in multiple rounds of counselling.

• Keep backup options in other branches/colleges.

• If possible, improve your score in next attempts.

Dear Candidate,
With a CG PET score of 50-55 marks , you have a fair chance of getting admission to the Electrical Engineering branch at Bhilai Institute of Technology ( BIT ) , Durg , especially if you belong to a reserved category . In recent years , the cutoff for Electrical Engineering at BIT Durg has ranged around 48 -50 marks in the second round of counseling  . Therefore , your score falls within the typical cutoff range . To improve your chances , ensure that you participate in all counseling rounds , including the spot round , as seat  availability and cutoffs can  vary .

HEY THERE!!
