Yes, with a CMR of 2851 in OBC-B category, you definitely have a fair chance of getting admission in some of the lower-tier government engineering colleges in branches like CSE, IT, or ECE. However, getting these branches in top colleges will be tough because the cut-off for CSE/IT is usually much higher.

Still, if you are flexible with the college location and branch preference, you may get CSE/IT in a lesser-known government college or ECE in some mid-tier ones. My advice would be to keep your options open during counseling and also look at self-financing government-aided colleges, where chances are better with your rank.

Yes, you can.
Process:

• You must register and fill choices in WBJEE counselling.

• If allotted a TFW seat, you can withdraw from your previous admission (may lose the earlier admission fee unless refundable) and take admission in the new college under TFW.

• Final decision depends on whether you are ready to leave the old seat and complete fresh admission formalities.

With a GMR of 42,000 in WBJEE and SC category, plus a TFW rank of 10,000, your chances for a TFW (Tuition Fee Waiver) seat are quite low because TFW seats are very limited (only 5% of total seats) and are usually taken up by much lower TFW ranks (generally within 3k–5k for popular branches in government and top private colleges). However, being SC category does improve your chances for getting a seat under reservation in government or private colleges through GMR, but the TFW quota is allotted strictly by TFW rank, not category rank. So realistically, you may not secure a TFW seat, but you should still get admission through SC quota in lower/mid-tier private engineering colleges in WB.

You can't get a good cse college at this rank. Even if you take admission in some other college it would be just a waste of money. In that case I would suggest you to go for private colleges like Heritage Institute of Technology through management quota where you need to pay huge fees.

Other than cse branch you can consider different branches where admission is possible explore WBJEE CUTOFF to find exact options.

And if you dont want these colleges then try reappearing for the next year if you are not a dropper already.

Beat of luck.

Hello,

With OBC-A rank around 2200, chances in Jadavpur University are slim. But you can still target good govt. colleges like:

• Kalyani Government Engineering College (KGEC)
• Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College (JGEC)
• UIT, Burdwan University

Thank you!

With your OBC-A rank of 2,214, you have strong chances to secure seats in reputable government colleges (like Kalyani GEC, Jalpaiguri GEC) and branches at JU (non-CSE), and you’re eligible for good private colleges like IEM or Heritage in branches like CSE, ECE, or IT.

Hello,

At this rank, top government colleges are tough, but you can still land in SC category seats at:

Regional Engineering Colleges in districts (JGEC, Cooch Behar, Kalyani GEC) in less demanded branches.

UIT Burdwan sometimes opens at this range.

Hello Aspirant,

Yes, you are required to select the TFW option at WBJEE counselling in order to avail the Tuition Fee Waiver scheme. If you have a valid TFW certificate, it will not be considered unless you choose the TFW category while filling the options. Likewise, the TFW certificate will only be checked at physical verification if you opted for TFW in the counselling form. Thus, if you do not select it you will not be allotted a seat under TFW.

With a WBJEE 2025 general rank of 72,000 and an SC category rank of 8,000, securing a Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) seat in top government colleges like Kalyani Government Engineering College (KGEC) or Heritage Institute of Technology (HIT), Kolkata, is highly unlikely. In 2024, KGEC's closing rank for CSE under the SC category was around 5,436, and HIT Kolkata's closing rank for CSE in the SC category was approximately 10,419 .

Hello,

With an OBC-B rank of 4845, you may be able to get into colleges like

• Alipurduar Government Engineering and Management
• Ramkrishna Mahato Government Engineering College
• Jalpaiguri Engineering College (for certain branches)

You can choose these colleges also; check the official website to choose other choices.

I hope it will clear your query!!
