Hello there,

Here's a simple comparison to help you decide among:

• Mechanical Engineering at NIT Nagpur (VNIT)

• ECE at NIT Raipur

• CSE at IIITDM Kancheepuram
  
  1. CSE at IIITDM Kancheepuram – Best in terms of career scope

• Pros :

  • CSE has the highest placement demand.

  • IIITDM has strong coding culture and industry ties (especially with companies in Chennai & Bangalore).

  • Better average packages for CSE (approx. Rs.10–15 LPA for top students).
    
    

• Cons : Less old/reputed than NITs, but rapidly growing.
  
  
  2. Mechanical at VNIT Nagpur – Best among core branches

• Pros :

  • VNIT is a top-tier NIT with great reputation.

  • Very strong faculty and research in core engineering.
    
    

• Cons :

  • Mechanical has lower placement packages (Rs.5–6 LPA average).

  • Fewer job opportunities compared to CSE/ECE unless you go for GATE or higher studies.
    
    3. ECE at NIT Raipur – Balanced option

• Pros :

  • ECE gives you flexibility – can go into core or software jobs.

  • NIT Raipur is improving and has decent infrastructure.
    
    

• Cons :

  • Lower brand value than VNIT or IIITDM.

  • Packages are mid-range (Rs.6–8 LPA for top students).
    
    Verdict:

• If placements and software jobs are your focus: Choose CSE at IIITDM Kancheepuram .
  
  

• If you want a core engineering degree from a top college : Mechanical at VNIT Nagpur .
  
  

• If you want a safe, flexible middle ground : ECE at NIT Raipur .

Hello there,

Estimating your exact rank in TS ECET 2025 with 70 marks for the Mechanical branch and your integrated rank is challenging before the official results are out, as ranks depend on various factors like:

1. Overall difficulty of the exam: A tougher paper generally means higher ranks for the same score.
   
   
2. Number of candidates: More test-takers can push ranks higher.
3. Topper's score: This significantly influences the overall rank distribution.
4. Tie-breaking rules: If multiple candidates score the same, specific rules (like marks in engineering subjects, then Math, then Physics, then age) determine ranks.

However, based on previous years' trends for TS ECET (including 2024 expected trends) , here's a general idea for 70 marks:

For Mechanical Branch Rank (TS ECET):

• A score of 70-79 marks in the Mechanical Engineering stream typically falls in the range of 801 to 1000 for the branch-specific rank.

For Integrated/Overall Rank (TS ECET):

• For an overall score of 70 marks , the integrated rank in TS ECET is generally expected to be in the range of 1501 to 2000 .
  
  

Important Note: These are estimates based on past trends and can change. The official TS ECET 2025 results and rank card, which will be released by TSCHE (JNTUH), will provide your precise ranks. The result is expected to be released by the end of May or first week of June 2025 .

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries, feel free to share your questions with us, and we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you, and I wish you all the best in your bright future.

HEY THERE!!!

As a diploma holder from Shillong, you are eligible for direct lateral entry (second year) in B.Tech Mechanical Engineering at Manipal University and other such institutions, provided you take the Manipal Entrance Test (MET) for Lateral Entry.

Important Points:

Eligibility:

You should have passed a 3-year diploma in the concerned engineering branch (Mechanical Engineering) with at least 45% aggregate marks (some campuses might require 50%) from a recognized institution.

Entrance Exam:

• MET (Manipal Entrance Test) for Lateral Entry is mandatory for entry to B.Tech (Lateral Entry) at Manipal Institute of Technology, Manipal, and other most esteemed private universities.
• There is no direct admission facility available without the entrance test at Manipal and comparable top institutions

Conclusion

You have to sit for the MET Lateral Entry test to secure direct second-year B.Tech Mechanical Engineering admission in Manipal or equivalent top-rated institutions. No direct admission is possible without sitting for the entrance exam in these colleges.

Hello Naveen,

Having an AEEE rank of 25,983, securing a seat in Mechanical Engineering at Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham's Bangalore campus may prove to be difficult, since the cutoff ranks for this branch are generally much lower (better). Seats in Mechanical Engineering are generally filled with candidates who have ranks well within the top 10,000 to 15,000. Admission also depends upon other factors such as category, availability of seats, and rounds of counselling.

I suggest you referring official Amrita admission website or get in touch with the admissions department to ensure you get the latest and most precise cutoff information.

HEY THERE!!

With a rank of 25,983 in AEEE 2025, you stand a good probability to grab a seat in Mechanical Engineering at Amrita Bengaluru campus.

Why?

1. Cutoffs for Mechanical Engineering at Amrita Bengaluru in previous years have generally been much higher (less competitive) than the cutoffs for CSE or ECE.
2. For ME (Mechanical Engineering), the closing rank at Bengaluru campus has generally been in the range of 20,000 and 35,000 or even greater in subsequent rounds.
3. Various sources report that candidates with ranks between 25,000 have obtained positions in branches such as Mechanical at Amrita Bengaluru and Amritapuri campuses.

Key Points:

• Cutoffs can vary every year depending on applicant numbers, toughness level, and seat availability. The exam was tougher for 2025, hence the cutoffs might fall a bit this time.
• You must undergo the Centralised Seat Allotment Process (CSAP) and give your preferences for Mechanical Engineering at Amrita Bengaluru campus.

Conclusion:

With your rank of 25,983 in AEEE, you are eligible and likely to obtain a seat in Mechanical Engineering at Amrita Bengaluru campus during regular counselling rounds. Be sure to register and undergo CSAP to ensure maximum opportunities.
