Hello Aspirant,

Coming at rank 340,045 in the general category, it is extremely less likely to get admission in the Mining branch of GEC Keonjhar through the conventional state or national level counseling procedures. GEC Keonjhar and its Mining branch tend to have much lower closing ranks, usually ranging from a few thousands to tens of thousands, based on the year and exam.

You can consider applying to other colleges with lower cutoffs or look into management quota or lateral entry if possible. Additionally, continue to check official counseling sites for updates on the latest cutoffs and available seats.

Correct Answer: gt819, ir1017


Solution : Given:
az225, cx423, ev621, _?, _ ?

az225→a + 2 = c; a and z are opposite pairs; 225 + 198 = 423
cx423→c + 2 = e; c and x are opposite pairs; 423 + 198 = 621
ev621→e + 2 = g; e and v are opposite pairs; 621 + 198 = 819
gt819→g + 2 = i; g and t are opposite pairs; 819 + 198 = 1017

So, gt819 and ir1017 are the missing terms of the series. Hence, the third option is correct.
