Previous Year's JEE Main Cut off for IITs & NITs

Very small number of students take second drop for JEE because it is not worth it. Rather do as much as hard work in the first and second attempts and admit in the college you are getting in the immediate counselling.

Rather work hard in the four years of Btech than wasting years to get Tier 1 colleges cause now even IITs can't fetch you good jobs. High packages job only depends on the candidate's skill and competency.

With a 92 percentile in JEE Main 2025, your All India Rank (AIR) would be approximately 120,000.

For the OBC (NCL) category, your category rank would be significantly lower (better) than your general rank, likely around 30,000 - 40,000, but this can vary depending on the number of OBC candidates and overall competition.

This rank might give you a chance in some NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs, especially in lower branches or home-state quotas, but it depends on the cutoffs for each institute.

For CMAT ideally you require 1 year or 6 months time for excellent preparation to get into the top management colleges.

If you are beginner start with knowing the syllabus first then transcend into basics and advanced learning.

Hello,

With an OBC rank of 45,000 in JEE Main, securing admission to the Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) or Information Technology (IT) programs at UIET Chandigarh is unlikely . Historically, the closing ranks for these programs have been significantly higher.

For instance, in 2024 , the closing ranks for the General Category were:

• CSE : 42,817

• IT : 54,993

While OBC candidates benefit from a reservation, the adjusted ranks still typically fall within a range that makes admission with a 45,000 rank improbable.

Alternative Options:

Consider exploring other institutions where your rank might be competitive. For example, Chandigarh College of Engineering and Technology (CCET) had higher closing ranks in 2024:

• CSE : 89,506

• Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE) : 123,221

Recommendations:

1. Participate in Counseling: Engage in the JAC Chandigarh counseling process to explore available options based on your rank.

2. Explore Other Institutes: Research engineering colleges where the previous years' cutoff ranks align more closely with your JEE Main rank.

3. Consider Branch Flexibility: Being open to branches other than CSE or IT can increase your chances of securing admission in reputable institutions.

Note: Cutoff ranks can vary each year based on factors like the number of applicants, seat availability, and overall performance. It's advisable to check the latest information during the counseling sessions.
