IPE Hyderabad P.G.D.M Courses & Fees 2025

Hi Parameswari,

If you scored 842 marks in your Intermediate Public Examination (IPE) and aiming for a seat in the B.Sc. Computer Science program at Andhra University (AU), your chances are reasonably good, depending on a few key factors.

1. Andhra University typically admits students to undergraduate science courses based on merit in the qualifying examination without requiring an entrance test. 2. An IPE score of 842 out of 1000 reflects a strong academic record, especially if you are from a reserved category (SC/ST/BC/EWS), as AU follows the Government of Andhra Pradesh’s reservation norms.

3.  For general category students, competition is tougher, and admission under free seats is more strictly merit-based.

4. The minimum eligibility to apply for B.Sc. programs is a 50% aggregate in the 10+2 examination with Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry, which your score likely exceeds.

Additionally, your chances improve if you fall under the Economically Weaker Sections (EWS) category or other reserved categories and have a valid income certificate. It’s essential to apply through the AU admission portal and select the appropriate quota (such as government or convener quota) during your application.

Keep all supporting documents ready, including your marks memo, caste and income certificates, and EWS proof if applicable.

While the exact cutoff varies yearly based on the applicant pool, a score of 842 is generally competitive for admission into popular courses like B.Sc. Computer Science under a free or subsidized seat, especially if you fulfill the eligibility criteria under any reserved category or merit-based admission policy.

You got two choices: CSE at GNDU (Computer Science) or IPE, Chemical, or Biotech at NIT Jalandhar.

If you like coding, computer jobs, or want to work in tech companies, choose CSE at GNDU. Computer Science has better jobs and high salary, even if it's not from NIT.

If you want the "NIT" tag (famous college) and are okay with other branches (not computers), choose NIT Jalandhar. But the jobs in Chemical or Biotech may not pay as much as CSE.

Simple advice: If your main goal is good placement and tech jobs, go with CSE at GNDU. If you care more about big college name (NIT) and don’t mind non-computer branches, go with NIT Jalandhar.

HEY THERE!!!

• You should expect to rank between 30,000 and 40,000 with 40 AP EAPCET points and 25% IPE points.
• With this rank, you might be able to get into Andhra Pradesh's lower-tier private engineering schools, but you won't likely be able to get into a top government or private university.
