Yes, based on her AIR of 3424 in General and 970 in OBC category in JEE Main Paper 2 (B.Arch), your daughter has a good chance of getting admission in Architecture to MNIT Jaipur under the OBC category. In previous years, the closing ranks for OBC category at MNIT Jaipur for B.Arch have gone to around1500-1600, so a rank of 970 is comfortably at the lower part of that bracket. However, the final allotment will depend on yearly cutoffs, matrix of the seats and choices filled for JoSAA counseling. Check here for more information: MNIT jaipur

Hello Aspirant,

you can study b.tech in computer science without giving JEE exam by taking admission through management quota or spot admission or in private institutes that accept 12th marks only. entrance exam is not mandatory in many private colleges . you should focus now on building coding skills and gaining practical knowledge for future placements.

It's amazing that you're already thinking about JEE 2027.

As of now, the official notifications for JEE 2027 haven't been released (they usually come out a few months before the exam), but you can still plan your preparation based on the usual pattern and schedule that's been followed in the last few years.

The syllabus is based on class 11 and class 12 NCERT topics. In recent years, NTA has allowed some flexibility in question patterns by offering optional questions in each section, so staying updated with the official brochure is important.

Since you're aiming for 2027, now is the perfect time to build your foundation strong. Focus on clarity of concepts, regular revisions, and solving a lot of mock tests. Starting early gives you time to learn at a steady pace without pressure.

With a CRL of 1.53 lakh, being an outside Delhi OBC candidate with defence quota priority VI, your chances of getting a CS-related branch like CSAM, CSD, CSSS, CSAI, or CSE at IIIT Delhi are unfortunately very low. The closing ranks for OBC and even for OBC with defence quota usually stay well below your rank, often within the top 80,000. Even with the quota, priority VI doesn’t offer as much relaxation as the higher priorities.

So realistically, it's unlikely you'll get a CS branch at IIIT Delhi with this rank this year. You might want to keep some backup options in mind or consider a drop year if IIIT Delhi is your goal.

Hello Gautam

1. NDA: No, a diploma holder is not eligible for NDA as they require the candidates to be passed or appearing in Class 12th.

2. JEE Main s: Similarly, a diploma holder is not eligible for JEE Mains as it is only for 12th passed/appearing students with PCM.

3. JEE Advance: Yes, a diploma holder is eligible for JEE Advance  and can aim for IITs.

Regarding your second doubt:
No, a diploma holder is not eligible to take admission in NITs on the basis of JEE MAIN marks . A diploma holder can only aim for IITs and that too on the basis of JEE Advance.

With a JEE Main percentile of 51 and an OBC-NCL rank around 2.8 lakh admission to NITs, IIITs, or GFTIs is not possible, as these institutes usually require an OBC rank below 50,000. However, you can still explore state-level counseling where some government colleges accept higher ranks. Private universities like SRM, VIT, or Amity also offer good programs and may admit students with moderate scores. Alternatively, you can consider B.Sc. courses such as Cardiology or Computer Science through CUET, where cutoffs are generally more accessible. If you've determined to get into top colleges, taking a drop year to prepare and reattempt JEE is also a valid option.

Hello,

With a 76 merit rank in the SC category (JEE category) for DAIICT , you have a good chance of getting the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) branch. Based on past trends, SC category cutoffs for ICT are usually higher than your rank.

However, final allotment depends on seat availability and number of applicants. Keep checking official rounds and stay updated through the DAIICT counselling portal.

Hope it helps !
