Is there a 85 %tile in jee mains can we get admission in coep

College of Engineering Pune (COEP) is one of the top government engineering colleges in Maharashtra. It takes students through JEE Main for all India quota and MHT CET for Maharashtra state students.

If you got 85 percentile in JEE Main, then your rank will be around 1,50,000 or more. COEP usually takes students with higher percentiles. For top branches like Computer Science or IT, the JEE Main cutoff percentile is usually around 98 or more. Even for other branches, COEP prefers students with percentiles above 95.

So with 85 percentile, it is very difficult to get any branch in COEP through JEE Main. You may try for other colleges or through state quota if you are eligible under MHT CET.

Hello Bhakti,

First of all, Congrats on scoring 85 percentile in JEE Mains ! Now, coming to the question of whether you can get admission into COEP with that percentile honestly, it’s a bit difficult especially if you belong to general category.

COEP is one of the top engineering colleges in Maharashtra and is now even an autonomous university (COEP Tech). Because of its reputation, the cutoffs for branches like Computer Science, IT, and Mechanical are usually very high often above 97–98 percentile for open category students. Even for reserved categories like SC, ST, or OBC, the cutoffs remain in the high 80s to mid-90s range depending on the branch. You can still explore the later CAP rounds, where cutoffs sometimes drop a little, and also look into other colleges under the same state technical education system, like:

VJTI Mumbai , Walchand College of Engineering, Sangli or Pune Institute of Computer Technology.

If you're from a reserved category, your chances improve significantly. Also, if you’re flexible with branches like Civil or Production, it might be worth trying.
