My vit rank is 71000 will I get mechanical branch.
I’m afraid that’s going to be tough for you, if your rank was closer to 25,000 then you would have had chances. Before the counseling process reaches 25,000, category 2 Mechanical will mostly get over. And besides there will not be too many seats added for Category 2 so I think you should expect Mechanical in Category 3.
However, if you are ready to go for the Chennai campus, you still can have a chance. But there are other campuses as well. Because in the Chennai campus, there are more than 200 seats remaining in category 1 itself. By the time the counseling reaches 25,000, I am sure cat 1 seats will be over.
