Himachal Pradesh Common Entrance Test
Hello aspirant, A score of around 97 marks in HPCET puts you in the mid-range of expected percentile, which usually translates to a rank between 30,000 and 50,000, although exact figures depend on the year. Considering the typical closing marks for ECE at ABVGIET, which is a government-affiliated college in Himachal, the required score for HP quota EWS candidates usually falls in the range of 90 to 110 marks. That means your 97 score is likely just around the cutoff, giving you a fair chance to get ECE, especially in later rounds like mop-up or spot rounds.
Since HPCET counselling allows you to choose branches and colleges based on your rank and category, it's important that you participate actively, list ECE at ABVGIET high, and stay engaged through all counselling rounds. If seats remain unfilled, your score should make you eligible for admission.
Dear student, With 80 marks in HPCET and 45 percentile in JEE Mains , your chances of getting a seat at Jawaharlal Nehru Government Engineering College (JNGEC), Sundernagar depend on your branch preference and category .
For General category , 80 marks are borderline for Mechanical or Civil Engineering, but too low for CSE or ECE, which usually need 90+ to 110+ marks. For reserved categories , you have a better chance , especially in less competitive branches.
Your JEE Main percentile (45%) is too low for admission via the JEE route at JNGEC, where CSE usually closes well below 100,000 rank. Recommendation :
Apply through the HPCET counselling process , especially for Mechanical or Civil.
Keep track of later rounds or spot counselling , where cutoffs sometimes drop.
Have a few backup options ready in other colleges if needed.
Dear Candidate , Yes with 80 HP CET marks , you surpass typical cutoffs for state - quota entry into JNGEC. You are very likely to obtain a seat in core branches like Civil , Mechanical or Textile, more competitive streams like E&C or AI may require a bit higher score , but admission is still feasible with your JEE percentile backing it up .
80 mark in HPCET, it’s very unlikely you will get a seat in Jawaharlal Nehru Government engineering College or other Himachal Government engineering colleges. Chapati
Due to a technical issue or separate counselling, BPharma might not appear on the HPCET counselling portal.
Verify your eligibility and give it another go later.
If the issue persists, get in touch with HPTU.
Dear aspirant,
It's possible to get a seat in a government college in Himachal Pradesh with 102marks in HPCET. If you belong to a reserved category like SC, ST or other your chances are higher but if you are from General category then scores around 100-120 are considered as competitive in most branches. The specific cut off will vary in each college and branches. The number of seats available in your preferred college will also influence your chances. So check the cut offs of your preferred government college .
Good luck.
