With 82 marks and a rank of 522, you’ve secured IT at BIT Durg as your fifth priority in the first round, which is a solid start. Now, for the second round, you can still aim for AI (Artificial Intelligence) or Data Science at the same college if there are seats left.

Log in to the counselling portal, update your priority list by placing AI or Data Science above IT—think of IT as a fallback option. The system will try to upgrade your seat if seats are available in those preferred branches when allotment occurs. If AI or Data Science seats are already full, you will retain your current IT seat in BIT Durg.

Since your rank is strong, you have a good shot at an upgrade—especially if those specialized branches have more seats or fewer applicants. Make sure you participate in all rounds, keep your priorities smartly ordered, and check the allotment results closely after second-round seat release.
