Hello,

For home-state candidates seeking admission to the Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) branch at IET Lucknow under the EWS category, a JEE Main percentile of around 96 to 97 or higher is generally required. This translates to an All India Rank (AIR) of roughly 25,000 to 35,000, based on the number of candidates and the degree of competition in a specific year. Because CSE is the most desired branch, the cutoffs stay elevated even within reserved categories such as EWS. Having Uttar Pradesh residency is advantageous since IET adheres to a home-state quota, resulting in a slightly lower cutoff compared to candidates from other states. To increase your chances, you should strive for a score significantly over 150 in JEE Main or a percentile nearly reaching 98.

Hope this helps. All the best!
