Hello Vamsi Krishna,

With a TS EAMCET rank of 20,000 in SC category, the chances of getting B.Tech CSE (either regular or dual degree) in JNTU Hyderabad (Kukatpally) is moderate to good depending on the cut-off trend and other reservation quota. In any case, if you don't get the regular B.Tech CSE, there is good chance that you will get the B.Tech + M.Tech Integrated Dual Degree (IDP) in CSE.

When it comes to better option:

• Regular B.Tech CSE: More options to either go into higher studies (MBA, MS abroad, even M.Tech) after and have the opportunity to get higher qualification. You can also go out to get a job too.
• Dual Degree CSE ( B.Tech + M.Tech): saves a year but limits you to only M.Tech at JNTU., no flexibility to change.

If your goal is to work after completing your 4 years of studies or looking to go to higher studies abroad, then the best option is a regular B.Tech CSE as the possibilities are open to you. However, if you are sure, intend to pursue the M.Tech, and want to maintain that continuity, then dual degree is the better option.
