Mechanical Engineering
With a KCET rank of 1,65,000, getting Mechanical Engineering at PES College of Engineering, Mandya is very unlikely in the earlier rounds. In recent years, the cutoff for Mechanical has usually closed around 1,30,000 to 1,40,000 in Round 1, and in some cases extended beyond 1,60,000 in Round 2 or casual vacancy rounds, depending on the category and seat availability.
If you're from a reserved category, you might still have a chance in later rounds. Otherwise, the chances are slim. You can wait for further rounds or explore other colleges where the closing rank for Mechanical is higher.
Hello Aspirant,
Both Mechanical Engineering in IIITDM Kancheepuram and Chemical Engineering in NIT Trichy have their own strengths and weaknesses; they are both good options (yes, I know this is a cliché). Which is the better choice for you to take will ultimately depend on your interests and future ambitions.
You should take Mechanical in IIITDM Kancheepuram if:
You should take Chemical in NIT Trichy if:
With an 85.4824 percentile in JEE Main and eligibility under the North East quota (EWS category), you have a decent chance of getting into SOE Tezpur's Mechanical or Civil Engineering branches, though it may depend on the specific round and seat availability.
Here’s what the recent cutoff trends suggest:
Mechanical Engineering:
2024 Closing Rank (General category, All India quota): Around 185140 for North East quota, the cutoff tends to be more relaxed, especially for reserved categories like EWS
Civil Engineering :
2024 Closing Rank (General category, All India quota): Around 209876 again, NE quota + EWS reservation could work in your favor
Since your percentile roughly translates to a rank near 140,000–160,000, you're within striking range, especially for Civil Engineering. Mechanical might be slightly tighter, but still possible depending on the round. All The Best!
Hi dear candidate,
There are multiple mechanical engineering colleges in Andhra Pradesh like Andhra University (Vizag), Sri Venkateshwara University (Tirupati), JNTU (Anantapur). The usual cut off trend for these colleges is between 1,000 to 4,000.
Factors like student category or branch selected may also affect your rank as reserved categories may avail slight benefits and branches like CSE, AI/ ML are very competitive.
For complete list of top colleges kindly refer to our official wesbite:

With a rank of 226 in AP ECET (Mechanical Engineering), you have a very good chance of getting a seat in top colleges in Andhra Pradesh.
You may get admission in top government colleges like JNTU Kakinada or Andhra University College of Engineering, as they usually accept ranks up to 300–400 for Mechanical. Some students with even higher ranks got admission last year.
You can also get a seat in popular private colleges like GMRIT Rajam, Aditya Engineering College, LBRCE, and RVR & JC College. These colleges usually accept much higher ranks, so your 226 rank is very safe.
Make sure to take part in the counselling process on time.
