Hello Aspirant,

See according to your category and percentile in CAT you have no chances to get call from any of the IIMs because top IIMs such as IIM A,B,C and so on call the candidates having more than 99 percentile and good academic records and even those seven baby IIMs also have their shortlisting cut-offs around 92-95 percentile but on such percentile you have some chances to get seat in some B-Schools other than IIMs like :-

• Indian School of Mines, Dhanbad
• Amrita School of Business, Coimbatore
• Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow & Jaipur
• Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International School of Textile Management, Coimbatore
• Vel Tech Dr. RR & Dr. SR University, Chennai
• Indian Institute of Health Management Research, Jaipur
• Christ University, Bangalore
• FMS, Manav Rachna University, Faridabad
• IBS Business School, Hyderabad
• National Institute of Technology, Warangal
• BIMTECH, Greater Noida
• Lovely Professional University, Phagwara
• VIT Business School, Vellore

But also note that for shortlisting of candidates for WAT/GD-PI if there is in the B-School admission process then your academic performance and diversity also comes into play means your academic performance in class 10th and 12th, his graduation percentage, graduation background and Job experience is also considered for admission to IIMs and other B-Schools in India.

To check the cut-off for above mentioned B-schools and complete list of other colleges which you can get on such percentile, kindly check out the link given below :-

Being from SC Category, securing a CRL Rank anywhere between 5000-7000 will ensure your selection in CSE in either of IIT Kharagpur, Kanpur or Roorkee. You should target securing atleast 40% of the Total Score to secure this Rank or atleast 140+ on an Expected Total of 360 in JEE Advanced 2021.

Greetings,

look at these things from a few angles:

- Your personal career goals and interests

- College repute

- Placements

- difference between the branches

Some basic facts first:

IIT- KGP (Mechanical)

- Course fees- approx. 8.5 lacs total

- average salary in 2019 (Mech) - 12-13 lacs per annum

- highest salary (mech) - 1 crore

- Great infrastructure

- Great college repute and student body

IIT - Bhubaneshwar (ECE)

- total fees - 8.6 lacs

- average placement in 2019 - approx.8-12 lacs per annum

- Great repute but not as popular as IIT KGP

- a lot of ECE students sit for IT and management placements

Now the decision rests on 2 main factors:

- The difference in branches

- and your personal interests and goals for  future

see, Mechanical and Electronics are both great branches with ample opportunities in India (PSUs) as well as abroad, arguably (to answer your question directly) doing Mechanical from IIT KGP might be the best proposition placement wise but the other element that will decide your future is your interest. If you wish to grab for yourself those high placement figures from such IITs that we all have grown up reading about (big figures in crores and google jobs and whatnot) you  will have to develop expertise in your field of study as well as a great personality. Both these colleges are well equipped to give you all the best knowledge available on the subjects but you will have to do the studying and you will have to

- score really well in your batch

- do some great internships

- write research papers

- work on projects

- get recommendations

this all will only be possible if you are enthusiastic about your branch and have a clear vision of where you want to see yourself after say 10 years.

So, when you have such a blessed opportunity to be in a position to choose between 2 great options in life, go with your choice of personal interest. Do some research on what is there to study and discover in both Mech and ECE branches, what career prospects are available for them and how can you find the best job your yourself.

Do not rush it, take your time and decide wisely. Jobs and placements depend on you and your efforts, you just choose where your heart wants to put in the efforts.

Good day, and best of luck.

Hi,

Well if the mock test is being conducted by IIT kanpur then you can visit the official website and check the results there. The sam eplace where you registered for the exam, there only you can find the results or any other notices regarding the mock tests. Check once and verify.

See both the institutes you have mentioned above are the elite institutes of India. So they both have some strategy to select students to keep up their elite status.

So both the exams have some level of difficulties.

In case of JAM to secure a rank under 50 , you have to study a lot and have to solve questions as fast as you can. Also you have to be intelligent enough in identifying the lengthy question given in the question paper to save time. So in JAM the problem solving skills as well as time management are checked in the examination.

Now in case of ISI exams problem solving skills along with theoretical knowledge are tested. In the question papers they include both subjective and objective question so you have not to worry about time management but about the accuracy. After their written examination they conduct interviews to recheck the explanatory ability in a student.

So both the exams have challenges in their own. But as ISI have interview then you will have to work hard regarding that too.

I hope my answer helps you. All the very best for your future endeavors!
