To get into Computer Science, you should score at least 60 to 75 percent in the 12th with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. But for top colleges, higher marks like 90 percent or more may be needed.

Yes, it's possible for an SC category student with an 84.60% in class 10 to be selected for computer engineering, but it depends on several factors. While 84.60% is a good score, admission to computer engineering programs, especially in competitive institutions, often involves considering other criteria beyond just the overall percentage. These criteria can include the student's performance in specific subjects relevant to computer engineering (like mathematics and science), entrance exam scores (if applicable), and the specific admission policies of the college or university. Additionally, being an SC category student may provide certain reservation benefits, which could increase the chances of selection.

Yes, it is possible for an SC category student with an 84.60% in 10th grade to be selected for computer engineering, but it's not a direct admission based on 10th marks. Admission to computer engineering, especially at the IIT level, usually requires completing 12th grade with specific science subjects and securing a good rank in the JEE (Joint Entrance Examination). The 10th-grade marks are a prerequisite for appearing in the 12th-grade board exams and the JEE.

Hello Aspirant,

Yes, as an SC category student with 84.60% in Class 10, you are eligible and have a strong chance of getting admission into Computer Engineering, especially through diploma courses. Most state government and private polytechnic institutes offer admission to diploma in Computer Engineering based on Class 10 marks, and your high percentage along with the reservation category increases your chances significantly. You can apply through your state’s Directorate of Technical Education (DTE) counselling portal. Later, if you wish to pursue B.Tech, you can either take admission after completing Class 12 (with PCM subjects) through entrance exams like JEE Main or your state CET, or opt for lateral entry after completing your diploma. Many states also offer relaxation in cutoffs and fee concessions for SC category students, which will further help you in the admission process. So yes, with your marks and category, getting admission into Computer Engineering is very much possible.

All the best for your career ahead.

Hello

Coimbatore offers some great B.Tech Computer Science colleges. PSG Tech and CIT are top choices with strong academics and excellent placements. Kumaraguru College is known for its good campus life and industry exposure. Sri Krishna College and SNS College also offer modern CSE programs with decent placement support. You can choose based on your budget, location, and career goals

If you're planning to study B.E. Computer Science, the fees depend on the type of college you choose. In government colleges like Anna University, it's quite affordable, ranging from around 30,000 to 47,000 per year. Private colleges like Saveetha or CIT usually charge between 50,000 to 1.6 lakhs per year. But if you’re looking at premium universities like Sai University, the fees can go up to 4 to 5.8 lakhs a year, including hostel. It depends on your budget, whether you need hostel, and if you can get a scholarship.

Hello Shailesh,

Yes, you may take direct admission to B.Sc. Computer Science even if you completed intermediate with MPC background and 48% merit. Nevertheless eligibility depends on the college or university. Some institutions may require you to have some minimum percentage (50-55% typically), while other may grant you admission through a management quota or entrance exams. I would suggest you check the eligibility of the particular college that you are considering.

To get admission in a college for Diploma in Computer Science , you need to follow the general admission process based on your state’s education board. Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Eligibility

• You must have passed Class 10 or Secondary School Examination from a recognized board.

• Some states may require a minimum of 35 percent to 50 percent aggregate marks .

  2. Entrance Exam or Merit-Based Admission

• In many states, admission is through a polytechnic entrance exam such as:

  • Karnataka – DCET or state-level polytechnic counselling

  • Tamil Nadu – Direct admission through merit

  • Maharashtra – CAP rounds through merit

  • Delhi – Common Entrance Test (CET Delhi)

• In other states, admission may be based on Class 10 merit only.

BTech CSE fees change from college to college. But mostly, in big government colleges, one semester costs around 30,000 to 60,000. In private colleges, it can go up to 1 lakh or even more for one semester. It’s like how toys are cheaper in some shops and costlier in others!

At KMO Arts and Science College, Koduvally, Bachelor of Commerce (Honours) with Computer Applications is offered as a self financing programme under the University of Calicut but unable to find the exact fee structure listed online. Self financing programmes at similar colleges in the region typically range anywhere from forty thousand rupees to sixty thousand rupees per year , depending on the course and institution.
