if my crl rank is 5lakh but my category obc rank is 2lakh then which rank is required for a clg?
Hey,
Yes, during counselling your OBC category rank is considered more important than your CRL. But honestly, with an OBC rank around 2 lakh, getting top NITs, IIITs, or good GFTIs becomes very difficult because their cutoffs usually close much earlier.
Still, you can explore:
• State engineering counselling
• Private engineering colleges
• CSAB special rounds
• Lower-demand branches in some colleges
And if your main goal is a good government college, then taking a serious drop year and improving your preparation can also be a good option to think about.
Hope it helps. All the best!
