Hi aspirant,

KCCET uses a 50:50 weightage ratio to determine student rankings, with 50% of your rank based on your board exam marks and 50% based on your KCET score.

You can calculate your score yourself, but for a more precise rank, it is recommended to visit the Career 360 KCET rank predictor.

With 96.1 percentile in JEE Mains and KCET rank under 5000 (OBC 2A), you have a good chance for CS at PES University Electronic City campus.

For PES Ring Road (main campus), CS cutoff is usually under 3000 rank, even for OBC 2A, so chances are lower but possible if your rank is close to that.

JEE percentile helps only for management quota, not regular KCET seats.

When it comes to admission to Computer Science Engineering (CSE) at PES University , the candidate's rank in KCET and JEE Mains , as well as their category, play significant roles in determining whether they can secure a seat.

Here’s an analysis of your situation:

1. KCET Rank:
   With a rank of less than 5000 in KCET , you stand a reasonable chance of securing a seat in PES University for CSE. PES University is known to have a competitive admission process, and the cutoff for CSE generally varies each year depending on the number of applicants and the difficulty level of the exam. Based on your rank, you are likely to be in the consideration range for the CSE course under OBC 2A category . However, the cutoff may also depend on the specific preferences of candidates applying that year.

2. JEE Mains Percentile:
   Your 96.1 percentile in JEE Mains is a strong score and demonstrates a solid academic foundation. Although JEE Mains scores are used for admissions through the COMEDK exam, it can still help in securing a seat in some universities like PES University if they also consider JEE scores for admissions, or for bypassing certain rounds of selection. PES University often considers multiple admission channels , including KCET and COMEDK , and in some cases, JEE Mains scores may be accepted for courses like CSE.

3. OBC 2A Category:
   Being in the OBC 2A category increases your chances of securing a seat in PES University, as the university offers reservation for OBC candidates. This category generally has a relatively higher cutoff compared to General category students, but it still depends on your rank and the number of applicants from that category.

Conclusion:
Based on your KCET rank and JEE Mains percentile , you have a good chance of getting admission to CSE at PES University . However, it is advisable to monitor the official cutoff trends and stay updated on the admission notifications. Make sure to apply through both KCET and COMEDK (if applicable) for better chances.

Note: It’s important to stay updated on PES University’s official site and any notifications regarding the admission process.

Based on your JEE Main percentile and KCET rank, here's an analysis of your chances for Computer Science (CS) at PES University:

With a 96.1 percentile in JEE Mains, your all-India rank would likely be in the range of 39,000 to 45,000 (this is an estimate and can vary slightly).

Your KCET rank is less than 5000, which is a very good score within Karnataka. PES University considers both JEE Main and KCET ranks for admissions. A significant portion of their seats are filled through KCET for Karnataka students.

As you belong to the OBC 2A category in Karnataka, you will have reservation benefits under the state quota through KCET.

Considering the previous year's KCET cutoff trends for PES University, a rank less than 5000, especially with OBC 2A reservation, gives you a very strong chance of securing a CS seat at PES University .

While JEE Main ranks are also considered, your excellent KCET rank within the state quota will be a significant advantage for admission to PES University, which is located in Bangalore.

Therefore, with your 96.1 percentile in JEE Mains and a KCET rank under 5000 in the OBC 2A category, you have a high probability of getting a CS seat at PES University through the KCET counseling process. Make sure to participate actively in the KCET counseling and list PES University as one of your top preferences.

With a 96.1 percentile in JEE Mains and a rank less than 5000 in KCET under the OBC 2A category, your chances of securing a Computer Science (CS) seat at PES University are quite strong, primarily through your KCET rank.

PES University admits students through both JEE Main and KCET. ¹ Given your excellent KCET rank (less than 5000) and belonging to the OBC 2A category, you have a significant advantage for admission through the Karnataka Common Entrance Test.

If your rank goes below 8,000, you can even try CSE/ISE in better branches in some of these.

Hope it helps !

Hi aspirant,

1. To gain admission to Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute (VJTI) for Computer Science (CS) via the Maharashtra Common Entrance Test (MHT CET), you should aim for a high percentile.
2. Based on past year's cutoff trends, particularly in the General Category (GOPENS), VJTI's closing percentile for Computer Engineering has regularly been in the high 99s.
3. Admissions in 2025 may vary depending on the number of candidates, the difficulty level of the exam, and the number of available seats.
4. Other categories, such as OBC, SC, ST, and EWS, have lower cutoffs but are still quite competitive, with most categories for Computer Science and Information Technology streams scoring above the 95th percentile.

All the best!

Hello there,

With a 74.82 percentile in JEE Main , getting CS , IT , or AI in top Mumbai colleges might be challenging. However, here are some options:

1. University of Mumbai Colleges :

• VJTI : Highly competitive for top branches, but possible for others.

• SVKM NMIMS (private): May accept JEE Main scores.

• DJ Sanghvi : Competitive for CS/IT, but possible for other branches.
  
  2. Private Colleges :

• L&T Institute of Technology and KJ Somaiya : They accept JEE Main scores but competition is high.
  
  3. Other Considerations :

• MHT CET : As you're from Maharashtra, applying for MHT CET can improve your chances in top colleges.
  
  

• Management Quota : Some private colleges may have lower entry requirements through this route.

You may also consider related branches like Electronics to increase your chances.

I would recommend you to use JEE Mains College Predictor Tool by Careers360 to get the list of possible colleges you can get with your rank or percentile.
