Hi there,

Please be mindful that UPES is more rank-centric than marks. The candidates are called for counseling based on the rank obtained in the UPESEAT exam.

The rank cut-off varies every year owing to the factors listed below:

• The difficulty level of the exam
• Previous year's cutoff trends
• Total No. of candidates who appeared for the UPESEAT
• Overall Performance of the candidates
• No. of seats

Below are some of the top branches of UPES and their respective cut-off ranks. This data has been collected from different sources and might change as per the pointers listed above.

Applied Petroleum Engineering with specialization in Upstream-5000

Applied Petroleum Engineering with specialization in Gas-6000

Automotive Design Engineering-around 9000

Computer Science and Engineering with specialization in Cloud Computing and Virtualization Technology-9500

Chemical Engineering with specialization in Refining and Petrochemicals-6500

Additionally, please note that your scorecard will also denote the number of people that have the same rank as you. In this case, your board PCM percentage + UPESEAT rank will be taken into account.

If you clear the above criteria and there is a seat available in your desired branch well and good.

If there is no seat available in your first preferred branch you can select your second preferred branch and keep the first one on the waitlist. Sometimes the waitlist does get cleared off and you get your first preferred branch.
