Joint Entrance Examination (Main)
With a JEE Advanced rank of 20,340, your son can likely get admission in newer IITs like IIT Bhubaneswar, Gandhinagar, Ropar, Mandi, Indore, Patna, or Jodhpur, mostly in less competitive branches.
Top IITs and popular branches like CS or ECE are unlikely.
Hello Hemalakshmi,
No, JEE Mains is not mandatory just because you are a resident of Pondicherry. Nevertheless, if you intend to gain admission into most engineering colleges/ Institutions across India including those in Pondicherry, you will most likely have to take and qualify in JEE Mains or any entrance tests which may be approved by the institution or college as the case may be. Certain colleges might also have their specified entrance criteria or admission by way of state-level entrance exams or management quota, but JEE Mains is the extremely primary national level engineering entrance and is thus widely used.
Hello Aspirant,
Yes, to be under Foreign Nationals DASA Counselling 2025, you must have done atleast 2 years of education abroad (outside India) within 8 years to the time of admission. This is a pre-requisite eligibility for acceptance under Foreign Nationals category.
Hello Sumit,
Based on your 66 percentile in JEE Mains 2025, and that you belong to SC category and also have Maharashtra domicile, you have chances in few engineering colleges under Centralized Admission Process (CAP) through MHT CET counselling in Nagpur.
While it is unlikely that you may get the top colleges like VNIT Nagpur with this percentile, you can consider options like:
JD College of Engineering & Management
KDK College of Engineering
Wainganga College of Engineering
