Up to which rank got admission to btech ec during 2018

Top NITs:

• In premier NITs like NIT Trichy, NIT Surathkal, and NIT Warangal, admission to ECE closed around 4000–7000 for General Category.

• For home state quota candidates, the closing rank extended further, sometimes up to 9000–12000 .

IIITs:

• In top IIITs like IIIT Hyderabad (ECE), the closing ranks were quite competitive, around 1200–2500 (based on JEE Main score).

• Other IIITs like IIIT Gwalior, IIIT Guwahati, and IIIT Kancheepuram had closing ranks in the 15000–25000 range for ECE.

Government Engineering Colleges (State Level):

• Through state-level counselling (like KCET, MHT CET, TNEA), the ECE branch was available up to much higher ranks, even up to 50000–80000 in certain colleges depending on the state and institute popularity.

Private Institutes:

• In reputed private colleges like VIT, SRM, and Manipal, ECE seats were also given based on entrance exams or board marks, and ranks beyond 50000 could still secure a seat.

Important Note:

• Exact cut-offs differ by category (General, OBC, SC/ST), home state quota, gender, and the counselling round (first round cut-offs are stricter; later rounds are more relaxed).

• Some special seats (like EWS or PwD) also influenced rank-wise admissions.
