Shubham, 

If you belong to West Bengal then you can get IT branch in IIEST shibpur. But of you belong to  some other state then you can't get IT in IIEST. As last year closing rank for Obc other state for IT was 6K.

If you belong to other state at this rank you can get any branch in IIEST.

Hello 

Congrats for Ur percentile 

Sorry but There is a very less hope that u can get iiest

As competition is cutthroat in was itself 

Anyway hope for the best 

U should definitely have other options go for it 

All the best

Hey Bipasha!
The final SC category rank, i.e. the cutoff, for IEST, Shibpur was 5506 in 2018. The branch was Mining Engineering. This was the home state rank for the gender neutral seats.
If West Bengal is your home state and you are a female only candidate, then the situation is much more suitable. The cutoff rank for civil engineering was 8467 and for Mining, it was 11067. These are the statistics of 2018.
This surely turns the tables to your benefit, considering you satisfy all the pre mentioned criteria. But I still would suggest you not to get your hopes too high and still consider other options as these ranks may differ by some margin this year.
Best of luck!

Hi


Congratulations for your result. But unfortunately your 12th Board percentage is low. You have to secure a minimum of 75% aggregate marks (for General category) and 65% marks (for OBC/SC/ST/PwD category) in the Higher Secondary Examination of their respective Boards to be eligible to take admission in IIEST Shibpur or any NITs.

Further, individually check the eligibility criteria for various colleges mentioned in the link. You can check using the Careers360 search tool. 

 

Best of Luck.

Hope this helps.

Hey Pankaj,
Salary of the different branches cannot be just predicted easily. It all depends on the companies visiting and the talent of the students. However, for an average student, CSE in IIEST Shibpur will be a better option to earn more packages. But, if you have potential, you can do great things and get highly paid from Electrical in NIT Durgapur also.
Good luck!

Hi there with this percentile your probability to get nit durgapur is less. As per previous year cutoff for cs for sc Category it was (open ranking-954 and closing ranking-1367) . And for iiest shibpur for home state cutoff for cs branch  was 903 as closing ranking.

You should definitely go for IIT Dhanbad if you want to pursue MTech rather than IIEST Shibpur. Though Shibpur's is good but you'll have more opportunities in IIT Dhanbad as more companies visit the campus as comp to Shibpur. And it's for all the branches. 

Hi,

It all depends on your choice on what you are interested in,computers,working and building stuff or do the core branches fascinate you

Have a look at the courses through several educational websites,youtube and see where you are interested in the most

If you are looking at it in terms of placement then
