QnA related to JEE Advanced

Ask your question related to JEE Advanced

dear student,

If you are giving the re-exam for Mathematics and you pass it, you will become eligible for IIT admission , provided you meet all other criteria (such as minimum percentage or top 20 percentile in your board for your category). IITs require you to have passed Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics in your 12th board exams.

However, you must submit your passing certificate and marksheet before the IIT admission deadline. If your re-exam results are declared and you pass before the document verification/counselling process ends, you can take admission in IIT. If your results come after the admission process is over, you will not be eligible for this year and may have to try again next year.

dear student,


At an SC rank of 4276 in JEE Advanced , getting into older IITs (like Bombay, Delhi, Madras, Kanpur) isn’t possible — even for less popular branches, these usually close below SC rank 2000–2500.

But you still have good chances in newer IITs and IIT (ISM) Dhanbad , especially for core branches like Civil, Mechanical, Electrical , and a few interdisciplinary programs.
like:

  • IIT Bhilai – Civil, Mechanical, Electrical

  • IIT Jammu – Civil, Mechanical, Chemical

  • IIT Dharwad – Civil, Mechanical

  • IIT Goa – Mechanical, possibly Civil in later rounds

  • IIT Palakkad / Tirupati – Civil, Mechanical

  • IIT ISM Dhanbad – Mining, Petroleum, Environmental, Civil, Interdisciplinary

  • IIT Jodhpur – Sometimes Civil or lesser opted branches

These options mostly open up in later JoSAA rounds , and availability may vary slightly year to year.

Hi aspirant,

For a JEE Advance rank of 5,000 or between 5,000 and 10,000, candidates can consider IITs like,

  • IIT Mandi - Electrical engineering
  • IIT Ropar - Mechanical Engineering
  • IIT Hyderabad - Engineering Science
  • IIT Tirupati - CSE
  • IIT Hyderabad - Engineering Physics
  • IIT Bombay - Chemistry (B. Sc)
  • IIT Guwahati - Chemical Engineering
  • IIT BHU Varanasi - Civil Engineering
  • IIT Delhi - Textile Technology
  • IIT Kanpur - Bioengineering
  • IIT Gandhinagar - Chemical engineering
  • IIT Jodhpur - Electrical Engineering
  • IIT Hyderabad - Civil Engineering
  • IIT Patna - Electrical Engineering
  • IIT Palakkad - CSE
  • IIT Guwahati - Engineering Physics
  • IIT Roorkee - Metallurgical Engineering
  • IIT Goa - CSE
  • IIT BHU Varanasi - Chemical engineering
  • IIT Kharagpur - Biotechnology & Biochemical
  • IIT Kharagpur - Mining Engineering
  • IIT Kharagpur - Ocean Eng. & Naval Arch.
  • IIT Guwahati - Civil Engineering
  • IIT Madras - Naval & Ocean Engineering
  • IIT Jodhpur - Mechanical Engineering
  • IIT Mandi - Mechanical Engineering
  • IIT Kanpur - Chemistry (B. Sc)
  • IIT Gandhinagar - Civil Engineering
  • IIT Jammu - CSE

These are not 100% accurate so you just have chances to get into one of these. You may want to check the cutoffs individually. This is a rough figure for you because at the end it depends on various factors like the cutoffs, no, of candidates and etc. Below mentioned is the link where you can find more details about which colleges you might get under this rank. Kindly refer to it.

I hope this helps.

HEY THERE!!!

  1. If you encounter an "incorrect data" error while checking your JEE Advanced 2025 result, first verify that all your entered details—such as your roll number and date of birth—are accurate.
  2. If the issue persists, consider accessing the site through a different browser, as technical glitches can sometimes be browser-specific.
  3. Should the problem continue, it is advisable to contact the official JEE Advanced helpdesk for further assistance.

HEY THERE!!!

Both options - Chemical Engineering from IIT Guwahati and Mechanical Engineering from IIT Hyderabad are strong choices, but they differ in academic focus, campus culture, and placement outcomes.

IIT Guwahati Chemical Engineering:

  • This IIT has been around longer
  • Its graduates form a strong network leading to good job offers
  • Life on campus tends to be more settled

IIT Hyderabad Mechanical Engineering:

  • This IIT is newer but growing fast
  • It has a modern campus and teaches in new ways
  • Mechanical grads earn more on average (INR 18.7 LPA), but fewer get jobs (53.7%)


  1. Go for IIT Hyderabad Mechanical if you like machines and want a new-age campus.
  2. Pick IIT Guwahati Chemical if you want a time-tested IIT and enjoy studying chemicals.
  3. You can't go wrong with either; just think about what you want to study and where you'd like to live!


With a JEE Advanced rank of 20,340, your son can likely get admission in newer IITs like IIT Bhubaneswar, Gandhinagar, Ropar, Mandi, Indore, Patna, or Jodhpur, mostly in less competitive branches.

Top IITs and popular branches like CS or ECE are unlikely.


HEY THERE!!!

  1. With a Preparatory ST rank of 228 in JEE Advanced 2025, realistically, your prospects for securing admission to core branches such as Mechanical, Civil, or Electrical Engineering at established IITs are quite slim .
  2. Historically, ST category seats for these core disciplines are filled by candidates with much lower ranks, often under 100.
  3. Preparatory ranks are only considered if there are vacancies after all eligible ST candidates have been allotted seats, which is uncommon—especially for high-demand branches.
  4. Typically, these opportunities arise in newer or less sought-after IITs and in branches that aren’t as competitive.


  • In summary, while admission to Mechanical, Civil, or Electrical at the older IITs is highly unlikely with your current preparatory rank, you may find options in non-core branches or at recently established IITs .
  • It’s important to keep expectations realistic and consider alternative branches or institutions.

Hello,

With a JEE Advanced rank of 3878 in the female category, your chances of getting Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) at an IIT depend on the specific IIT and its previous year cutoffs.

Usually, for general female category (also called female-open or female-general), ECE cutoffs in older IITs like Bombay, Delhi, Kanpur, and Madras are quite high, often within the top 2000-3000 ranks.

For your rank around 3878, you might have a chance at newer or mid-tier IITs like IIT Bhubaneswar, IIT Gandhinagar, IIT Hyderabad, IIT Patna, IIT Ropar, or IIT Indore, where the ECE cutoff for female candidates has sometimes gone beyond 3500 or 4000 in recent years.

So, based on past trends, Electronics in top older IITs may be tough, but in newer IITs, you have a reasonable chance.

Hope it helps !

Hello,

Yes, If you work hard and study regularly, you can definitely crack JEE Main and JEE Advanced.

IIT Madras is tough, but many students from state boards have made it with good preparation. Focus on understanding concepts well, practice lots of questions, and solve previous years’ papers.

Also, try to join a good coaching or online classes if possible. Believe in yourself and stay consistent. You have a good chance!

Hope it helps !

Hi Yash,

The rank of 5874 in EWS category is good and you genuinely have exposure to some of the good NIT branches especially Electronics & Mechanical Engineering.

Some of the colleges you may consider are:

  • NIT Trichy
  • NIT Jaipur
  • NIT Surathpur
  • NIT Allahabad

You may also look for good private colleges like VIT, MIT and BITS.

ALL THE BEST!
