IIIT Bangalore All Questions

With a SC rank of 26,588 for IIIT Kalyani (West Bengal), your chance of admission in Cyber Security or Computer Science under the home state SC quota is quite slim. The number of reserved SC seats is typically taken by 20,000 or more (depending on the popular areas such as Cyber Security).

But do not despair:

Depending on the general SC quota may be one thin hope.

Check out supernumerary, or left over, seats, which occasionally become open following key rounds.

Look at other branches of the same quality or colleges with close towards IIIT having lower competitive cutoffs.

In case you are firm regarding the branch of IIIT Kalyani, you might as well appear in the spot rounds or open counselling.

NO,  that GPA will not secure a seat for you

hi,

With a 94 percentile and 27,000 OBC rank, getting a seat in CSE or AI in top IIITs like IIIT Hyderabad, IIIT Bangalore, or IIIT Allahabad will be very difficult because their cutoffs are usually much lower, mostly within 10,000 ranks or even less.

But you still have a fair chance in newer IIITs like IIIT Nagpur, IIIT Bhopal, IIIT Ranchi, IIIT Agartala, and similar institutes. In these colleges, sometimes seats in branches like AI, Data Science, or even CSE remain available in the later rounds.

You will most likely get a seat in the 5th or 6th round or in the CSAB special rounds because many students drop their seats and cutoffs go down in those rounds.

Dear Candidate ,
With a JEE Main 2025 ST category rank of 16,000 , you have a good chance of getting a free seat in several NITs and IIITs through JoSAA counseling. Many NITs like NIT Patna and NIT Jamshedpur have previously admitted ST students with ranks well above 16,000 in branches like Mechanical, Civil , or even ECE . While top branches like CSE in premier NITs may be competitive , you still stand a strong chance in newer or mid - tier NITs and IIITs , especially if  you are flexible with the branch .

With 95.525 percentile in JEE Mains, you can get admission in some NITs, IIITs, or CFTIs, mostly in lower-demand branches like Civil or Mechanical.

Top NITs and popular branches may be tough. Check previous cutoffs and attend all counseling rounds for best chances.

NITS where your admission might be possible

With 64 percentile and a CRL rank around 5.4 lakh in JEE Mains 2025, getting admission in any NIT or IIIT is very unlikely, especially in the general category. Most NITs close their admissions below a rank of 1.5 lakh, and even the newer NITs usually fill seats by around 3 to 3.5 lakh rank. IIITs generally have closing ranks below 3 lakh.

Instead, you can try for state government engineering colleges through your state counselling or look for private engineering colleges that have lower cutoff ranks. Another option is to explore management quota or direct admission routes if available.

Hello Aspirant,

Given your JEE Mains EWS rank of 14,000, getting CSE in any of the top NITs or IIITs is going to be difficult. However, you might be able to get into newer or lower ranked NITs/IIITs, or branch CSE-related branches such as IT, Software Engineering or Data Science, which are not as competitive.

These are some of the possiblities:

1. NIT Mizoram, NIT Nagaland, NIT Meghalaya (CSE or computer related branches)
2. IIITs like IIIT Bhagalpur, IIIT Bhopal, IIIT Kalyani

These are the factors that can affect your chances:

• Home state quota
• Category seat variations every year
• Round number (chances can increase in further rounds)
