IIIT Bangalore Alumni

With a JEE Main percentile of 94.3 , an Open rank of 85,451 , and an EWS rank of 12,127 , your chances for Electronics and Electrical Engineering (EEE) or related branches in IIITs and GFTIs are possible but limited to newer or less competitive institutes and branches.

IIIT Admission Chances

• General Category:
  Most IIITs have closing ranks for core branches (like CSE, ECE, EEE) well below 85,000 for the Open category. The cutoff for General category in IIITs typically ranges from 10,000 to 100,000, but for EEE or similar branches, closing ranks in newer IIITs may sometimes go up to 1,00,000

• EWS Category:
  With an EWS rank of 12,127, your chances improve slightly, but top and mid-tier IIITs will still be out of reach. You may have a chance in newer IIITs or for less popular branches if seats remain after higher preferences are filled

GFTI Admission Chances

• GFTIs generally have higher closing ranks than IIITs, especially for non-core branches. With your rank, you may have a chance for EEE or related branches in some GFTIs, particularly those with lower demand or in remote locations

Summary Table

Key Points

• Top IIITs and top branches are out of reach at your rank, but you may get EEE or similar branches in newer IIITs or GFTIs, especially in later rounds of JoSAA counselling.

• Fill as many choices as possible during counselling to maximize your chances.

• Cutoffs vary each year based on seat availability and applicant pool, so keep checking official JoSAA cutoffs after each round

Conclusion:
You have a fair chance for EEE or related branches in some newer IIITs and several GFTIs, especially under the EWS category, but not in top institutes. Participate actively in JoSAA counselling and consider all available options.

The IIIT Hyderabad PDM (Postgraduate Diploma in Machine Learning/AI/Data Science) interview is meant to check your understanding of basics, problem-solving ability, and clarity of thought. To prepare, you should focus on three main areas.

First, revise the important subjects. You need to be clear about programming basics, especially in Python. Revise data structures like arrays, lists, stacks, queues, and trees. Brush up on algorithms like searching, sorting, and recursion. Go through core mathematics that supports machine learning, such as linear algebra, probability, and calculus. Review statistics topics like mean, variance, distributions, and hypothesis testing.

Second, practice problem-solving. Go to coding platforms like LeetCode, HackerRank, or Codeforces and try solving medium-level problems. You do not need to solve very hard ones, but be comfortable with writing clean and logical code. For mathematics, practice solving small problems that involve probability, matrices, and statistics.

Third, prepare for machine learning basics. You should know what supervised and unsupervised learning are, what regression and classification mean, and how common algorithms like decision trees, k-means, and linear regression work at a basic level. They usually test whether you understand the concepts, not whether you have done big projects.

In the interview, they may also ask you to solve small logical puzzles or math questions to see how you think. Be clear in explaining your thought process step by step, even if you are not fully sure of the answer.

Also, prepare to talk about your motivation. They may ask why you want to join IIIT Hyderabad’s PDM program, what your career goals are, and if you have done any projects, internships, or coursework related to coding or data science.
