Hello.

Yes, you can get seat under both reserved and unreserved. It's not mandatory that if you have reservation, you have to take a reserved seat.

Hope this helps.

Dear Wajidur,

No, if you have applied for an under-reserved category like general then you won't be getting a chance under the reserved category like SC, ST, etc. If you are of the reserved category, then you should apply under the reserved category and if you are of the under-reserved category, then you should apply for that category. Stick to your category when applying this will help.

I hope I was able to help you.

Hi Wajidur,

In JEE Mains Application form you are allowed to choose your category, and if you choose any reserved category you are asked to attach a proof for that. Now if you have filled for reserved category you will get your general as well as your category rank and your admission procedure is based on your category rank. Because if you want both you are eat up the position of some other candidate which is not allowed. So you can get chance only in one category.
