It's difficult to say with absolute certainty whether you can get CSE (Computer Science Engineering) and/or AI (Artificial Intelligence) with your MET score of 95 out of 240 and 98.6% in your 12th board examination. Admission to Manipal Institute of Technology (MIT) considers both your MET score and your 12th board marks.

Generally, for highly sought-after branches like CSE and AI, the competition is very high, and the cutoffs tend to be quite high as well. A score of 95 out of 240 in MET might correspond to a rank that is on the lower side for securing a top branch at the main Manipal campus.

Looking at past trends, for Computer Science Engineering and related specializations like Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning at MIT Manipal, the closing ranks in previous years have typically been within the top few thousand. While the exact marks for these ranks vary each year depending on the difficulty of the exam and the performance of other candidates, a score significantly higher than 95 has usually been needed to secure these seats at the main campus.

Your excellent 12th board percentage of 98.6% will definitely be an advantage, as Manipal University gives weightage to these marks in their admission process. However, the MET score is a crucial component.
