dear student,

At an SC rank of 4276 in JEE Advanced , getting into older IITs (like Bombay, Delhi, Madras, Kanpur) isn’t possible — even for less popular branches, these usually close below SC rank 2000–2500.

But you still have good chances in newer IITs and IIT (ISM) Dhanbad , especially for core branches like Civil, Mechanical, Electrical , and a few interdisciplinary programs.
like:

• IIT Bhilai – Civil, Mechanical, Electrical

• IIT Jammu – Civil, Mechanical, Chemical

• IIT Dharwad – Civil, Mechanical

• IIT Goa – Mechanical, possibly Civil in later rounds

• IIT Palakkad / Tirupati – Civil, Mechanical

• IIT ISM Dhanbad – Mining, Petroleum, Environmental, Civil, Interdisciplinary

• IIT Jodhpur – Sometimes Civil or lesser opted branches

These options mostly open up in later JoSAA rounds , and availability may vary slightly year to year.

With SC rank 4276 in JEE Advanced 2025, getting into any IIT is not possible, as SC cutoffs at IITs usually close below 2000.

Better Options:

Try NITs, IIITs, or GFTIs through JoSAA (some go up to 5000+ SC rank).

Consider state or private colleges as alternatives.
