hi,

With 92 marks in TS ICET 2025 and being a BC-B male candidate, getting a seat in MCA at Osmania University or JNTUH main campus is very difficult. Usually, the closing ranks for MCA in Osmania and JNTUH for BC-B category are much lower, mostly within the first 1000 ranks.

Since you've completed your B.Sc. in Computer Science and scored 95.55 percentile in MAH MCA CET, you’re in a very good position for admission into top MCA colleges in Pune. Based on your percentile and interest in placements, your primary focus should be on colleges with consistently strong academic records and good industry connections.

PICT (Pune Institute of Computer Technology) is one of the most preferred choices for MCA in Pune. It has a strong reputation, good coding culture, and solid placement records. Students here usually get placed in companies like TCS, Infosys, Capgemini, Cognizant, and even some product-based firms. With your percentile, you stand a strong chance of getting in during the early CAP rounds.

VIT Pune (Vishwakarma Institute of Technology) is also a very good option. It offers strong infrastructure, active placement cells, and a decent number of recruiters, especially from IT services and consulting companies. The environment is student-friendly and placement training support is strong.

You should also definitely consider the Department of Computer Science at Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU). It’s a central university department, so the academic reputation is excellent. The placements here are good, and the course is more research and theory oriented, which can also help if you plan to pursue higher studies or R&D roles.

Sinhgad Institutes and MIT-WPU are also good backups. Sinhgad has a decent placement track record, though not at the same level as PICT or VIT. MIT-WPU offers modern curriculum and decent placements, but fee-wise it's on the higher side compared to others.

With 95.55 percentile, you’re well-positioned to target PICT, VIT Pune, and SPPU in your first round of preferences. Just make sure to carefully fill your option form during CAP counselling and keep track of all rounds to increase your chances.

All the best!

To get into IIIT Pune for MCA after a BSc IT, you need to follow the NIMCET route, as IIIT Pune admits MCA students through the NIT MCA Common Entrance Test conducted by NITs. Here’s the process:

1. Eligibility – You must have studied Mathematics as a subject in 10+2 or in graduation. Your BSc IT qualifies, provided you meet this condition and have at least 60% aggregate (55% for reserved categories).

2. NIMCET Exam – Apply for NIMCET (usually Jan–Mar), prepare for subjects like Mathematics, Analytical Ability, Logical Reasoning, Computer Awareness, and English.

3. Score & Rank – Your NIMCET rank determines admission; IIIT Pune’s MCA cut-off usually falls within the top 2,000–3,000 ranks.

4. Counselling – Participate in NIMCET counselling, choose IIIT Pune as a preferred option, and lock your choice based on your rank.

5. Document Verification & Admission – Submit required documents, pay fees, and confirm your seat.

If your rank isn’t enough for IIIT Pune directly, you can still get MCA in another good NIT/IIIT and later switch or network for opportunities.
