Hello Vignesh,

With 91% in PCM and a MET score of 53, a predicted rank around 14,000 is quite likely. Under the SAGES category with full fee payment , getting a CSE (Computer Science and Engineering) branch is possible, but it mostly depends on the following factors:

1. Campus preference – Main campus (Manipal), Jaipur, or Sikkim. You are more likely to get CSE in Jaipur or Sikkim than in Manipal main campus at this rank.

2. Cutoff trends – In previous years, for full fee payment under SAGES or general category, CSE seats at Jaipur and Sikkim campuses were available up to ranks between 12,000 to 20,000 depending on demand.

3. Round of counselling – You may not get it in the first round, but you can expect a better chance in later rounds or through sliding.

Conclusion: Yes, you may get CSE under the SAGES category with full fee payment, especially in Jaipur or Sikkim campus, though it is unlikely at the Manipal main campus. Keep participating in all rounds of counselling for better chances.
