With a rank of 1229 in OBC category, getting CSE at BIT Durg is unlikely as past cutoffs were much lower. However, the IT branch at BIT Durg is good with decent placements and can be a good alternative.
Dear Candidate,
The College of Engineering, Guindy (CEG) and Madras Institute of Technology (MIT), Chennai admit students primarily through the TNEA (Tamil Nadu Engineering Admissions) process based on 10+2 marks. These institutions do not participate in CGPET (Chhattisgarh Pre-Engineering Test) for admission.
Important Points:
CGPET is conducted for admission to engineering colleges within the state of Chhattisgarh.
Anna University-affiliated colleges such as CEG and MIT do not accept CGPET scores.
Admission for out-of-state candidates into these Tamil Nadu institutions is done only through TNEA based on the normalized Class 12th scores.
Recommendation:
If you are a CGPET aspirant, you should look into engineering colleges in Chhattisgarh like:
Bhilai Institute of Technology
Government Engineering College, Raipur
Chhatrapati Shivaji Institute of Technology
Please verify the specific admission procedures and cut-off ranks for these colleges via CG Vyapam or official counselling portals.
Best wishes for your academic journey!
