Hello Aspirant,

If we go through the analysis of previous year's GATE score Vs College allotment than according to the GATE 2021 score mentioned by you in the query, you have very low chances in IIT Bombay with design specialization, because last year the closing cut-off for IIT Bombay was 844 for design specialization for last round.

You can check out previous year's cut-offs from the link given below :-

Note that the above prediction is made on the basis of latest cut-offs and the cut-offs are bound to change every year depending upon various factors such as the number of candidates appearing in an examination, the number of candidates qualifying an examination, difficulty level of the paper, and so on.

To have a list of all those colleges which you can get based upon your GATE 2021 Score and category you can use GATE College Predictor :-

Hello.

If we look at previous year's cutoff for Computer Science Engineering at IIT Bombay, the closing rank for General category in the last round was 66. For females (including supernumerary), the closing cutoff was 248. The cutoffs vary each year and depend on the number of students appearing for JEE (Advanced), those who qualify JEE (Advanced) etc. IIT Kharagpur will release the cutoffs for this year after the completion of JEE (Advanced) 2021. Hence, you need to at least secure a rank in the top 100 (General) to get admission into IIT Bombay.

For more information about the cutoffs, you can go to the following link: https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-advanced-cutoff-for-iit-bombay

Hello,

Here we are talking about IIT right, it's the premiere Institute in india. And best engineering colleges with good Placements and all. So for getting Admissions in this type of Institution try to study well and get above average marks.

Hope this helps!!!

Hello,

I believe you should prefer Engineering Physics at IIT Bombay . Engineering Physics is basically a Engineering Research branch and deals with Physics in Engineering and Application. As far as IIT Bombay is concerned, you shouldnt have any issue regarding Location, Faculty, Infrastructure and Research Facilities. As far as Placements are concerned opportunities in Core Physics sector seem bleak with many students joining Samsung Semiconductor, TSMC, LAM Research and some other companies like Applied Materials and Intel. But many students opt for pursuing Masters or Doctoral Degree post Undergraduate from Faculties of Physics in top US Universities like Princeton, UC Berkeley and Stanford. Besides this IIT Bombay has excellent placements as far as non core sector is concerned and you can always find high paying opportunities in Software/IT/Finance/Consultancy, etc. Perhaps I believe at this Rank you might find other Core or Circuital in many other Top IITs and can also consider them.

Below I have given the placement details for both the colleges:

Hello,

You have not mentioned your category. Here is the cut off in 2020 JoSAA round 6 for admission in to Mechanical Engineering in IIT, Bombay

  • Unreserved:1129
  • SC:386
  • ST:304
  • EWS: 289
  • OBC-NCL: 768
  • PWD: 17

Considering the previous year cut off you need to score minimum 60-65% of total score to have decent chances of getting seat in the preferred IIT and branch if you belong to general category, if you belong to SC/ST you need to score minimum 50-55% of total score, if you belong to EWS/OBC-NCL category you need to score minimum 55%-58% of total score. This is because the total marks for JEE Advanced changes every year, if you belong to PWD category you need to score 40% of the total score or above. This is an estimated score. Cut off also changes every year depending on various factors like number of candidates appeared difficulty level of exam and number of seats available etc.

Hello Sir,

As we go through the latest cut-offs of 2020 then it shows that the closing rank for OBC category was 2185 for Metallurgical Engineering and Materials Science  branch in IIT Bombay.

See it is quite difficult to tell you about exact marks to score because for JEE-Advance no maximum marks are fixed but yes with regards to JEE-Advance 2021 if he secures his AIR under OBC category in JEE-Advance under top 2000-2100 then there are good chances for him to get into some lower branches in IIT Bombay but if he wants top branches like CSE, ECE, or any other then he should maintain his rank under 200 for IIT Bombay.

You can check out the latest cut-offs from the link given below :-

https://josaa.nic.in/Result/Result/currentorcr.aspx

Note that the above prediction is made on the basis of latest cut-offs available on official website of JOSAA and the cut-offs are bound to change every year depending upon various factors such as the number of candidates appearing in an examination, the number of candidates qualifying an examination, difficulty level of the paper, and so on.

Hello,

In 2020 the cut off rank for admission in to Indian Institute of Technology Bombay in Computer Science Engineering for SC category was 29 in round 6. It is difficult to predict the marks that you need to score to get such rank because JEE Advanced total marks changes every year. But by analyzing the previous year data your ideal score should be 45-50% of the total score. This is an estimated score. The cut off changes every year depending on various factors like total number of candidates appeared, difficulty level of examination and number of seats available etc.

Hello,

This depends on what your interest is that is whether you would like to work or pursue your education.

If you decide to do M.Tech then IIT Delhi is the best for CSE department, followed by IIT Kanpur and then IIT Bomaby.

Now if you want to try for a government job, which os a very good option since you get paid really well and have job security, but to get into a PSU you need to get really good ranks.

I will share with you a link where you will get a clear picture of the previous year's GATE cutoff trends for PSUs.

https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/what-are-gate-scores-for-psu-recruitment


So it would be my opinion that if you score really well then you should try for PSUs since then you will be having a secured future. But of your passion is to learn then you should join M.Tech in one of the above given IITs


Good Luck
