Hi aspirant,

If you’re eligible to claim West Bengal domicile, then you should always choose ‘AT’, which is the code for WB domicile candidates. This gives you access to home state quota seats, which come with more reservation benefits and better chances of getting a government seat or a lower fee structure. AZ is for students outside West Bengal, where competition is higher and seats are fewer. Being a dropper doesn't affect your domicile claim what matters is whether you or your parents have lived in West Bengal for at least 10 years, or if you studied in the state for a qualifying period. If you meet the condition, definitely choose AT it gives you a big advantage in WBJEE counselling.

Thank you!

Hello Aspirant,

You can choose between A1 and A2 if you are a dropper and want to enjoy the domicile benefit in WBJEE, depending on what qualifies your eligibility:

  • Category A1: If you have passed 10+2 from West Bengal and have lived there for at least the past 10 years.
  • Category A2: If your parents are permanent residents of West Bengal (even after studying in a different place).
