Hi

As per previous year cutoffs, even candidates with ST Rank 2542 have got Metallurgical and Materials Engineering in VNIT Nagpur. So, your category rank determines which branch you can get there.

Also do check this VNIT Nagpur previous year cutoff link to get a better idea what you can get according to your profile: https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-main-cutoff-for-vnit-nagpur

Best of Luck.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!
