HEY THERE!!!

1. With a Preparatory ST rank of 228 in JEE Advanced 2025, realistically, your prospects for securing admission to core branches such as Mechanical, Civil, or Electrical Engineering at established IITs are quite slim .
2. Historically, ST category seats for these core disciplines are filled by candidates with much lower ranks, often under 100.
3. Preparatory ranks are only considered if there are vacancies after all eligible ST candidates have been allotted seats, which is uncommon—especially for high-demand branches.
4. Typically, these opportunities arise in newer or less sought-after IITs and in branches that aren’t as competitive.

• In summary, while admission to Mechanical, Civil, or Electrical at the older IITs is highly unlikely with your current preparatory rank, you may find options in non-core branches or at recently established IITs .
• It’s important to keep expectations realistic and consider alternative branches or institutions.
