HEY THERE!!

At 22,000 rank in SC category in JEE Main, you can get admission in Punjab Engineering College (PEC), Chandigarh, but preferably in branches other than core Computer Science or Artificial Intelligence.

Easy Cutoff Summary for SC Category (Other State) in PEC :

  • Computer Science Engineering (CSE): Closing rank about 3,700
  • Artificial Intelligence: Closing rank about 2,000
  • Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE): Closing rank about 5,000
  • Mechanical Engineering: Closing rank about 10,000
  • Civil Engineering: Closing rank around 10,500
  • Metallurgical and Materials Engineering: Closing rank around 11,500
  • Industrial & Production Engineering: Closing rank around 11,300

What This Means for You:

B.Tech/B.Arch Admissions OPEN

Apply to VIT - VITEEE 2026

  1. You will not be allotted CSE, AI, or ECE seats at PEC in SC category at rank 22,000.
  2. You can be taken admission in streams such as Mechanical, Civil, Metallurgical, or Industrial Engineering.
  3. For home state quota, cut-offs are higher, thus chances of these branches are more if you are eligible under home state.

Conclusion:

  • 22,000 rank (SC category) is good for core branches except some of the most competitive ones like CSE and AI at PEC.
  • You will have to apply and attend counselling, and take all likely branch options to improve your chances.
  • This aspires to be in line with recent cutoff trends at PEC Chandigarh.

Hello,
Your chances of being admitted to Punjab Engineering College (PEC), Chandigarh, in well-known fields like computer science, artificial intelligence, or data science are slim if your JEE Main score is 22,000 in the SC category. For SC candidates, closing ranks for these branches typically fall between 2,000 and 5,500. However, because closing ranks are typically higher in fields like mechanical engineering, civil engineering, or metallurgical and materials engineering, you might have a better chance. Cutoffs change annually depending on competition and seat availability, and PEC adheres to JoSAA counselling. To improve your chances, think about other branches and colleges.
