IIT Kanpur All Questions

Hello,

Congratulations on getting such good college and branch options. I will give you a preference list which will comprise of all these factors:

• Overall ranking
• Infrastructure
• Location/accessibility
• Branch that you are been offered(Core/interdisciplinary)
• Placement opportunities
• Industry Exposure

The preference order you should consider is:

1. IIT Delhi , Biotechnology
2. IIT Kanpur, Material
3. IIT Madras, Metallurgical
4. IIT Kharagpur, Material
5. IIT Kharagpur, manufacturing Science
6. IIT Hyderabad, Civil
7. IIT Indore, Mechanical

I would also like to add here that an engineering course should be very much taken with an interest in the field so I would suggest you to consider that factor and if you are not aware of the branches mentioned look them up on the internet. More reliable will be to go through the syllabus on the respective colleges' website. An interest in the field is the key factor in deciding how your 4 years of college will be and what opportunities you will land for yourself.

Hi

IIT Kanpur doesn't offer mechatronics but it does offer mechanical engineering

I am guessing you are from general category

This is a bit difficult to predict the rank required in to get a seat as cut off  keeps changing every year  depending upon various factors like

• ----------)  number of students that appeared in the jee advanced exam,

• ----------)  kind of marks obtained by them ,

• ----------)   toughness level of the examination ,

• ----------)  number of seats available for the branch you want etc.

But yes,

When we go through previous year trend then ,

In round 6 of josaa counselling,  2020 , 2542 rank was closing/last rank in jee advanced for general category  for gender neutral to get mechanical engineering in IIT kanpur

You can check the same at

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

So, you need at least around 2500 rank in JEE advanced for mechanical engineering in IIT Kanpur

To have a personalised report on your chances of getting a college you can go through our college predictor, it will give you complete list of colleges which you can get on the basis of the category you belong to,  your home state, your gender etc, the link for  jee college predictor is provided below

Thank you

Hey there

IIT Kanpur offers more than 60 courses related to technology and Engineering. Admission to the BTech program in IIT Kanpur is granted on the basis of merit scores achieved by the students in JEE.

For more details related to IIT Kanpur click on below link:

Hi.

Cut-offs are the minimum required marks for a candidate to be deemed as ‘Qualified’ in the examination. There are cut-off ranks as well which means the highest rank that a college has accepted a student into. Example, if cutoff rank for an engineering college is 2000 then all the students who have gotten a rank higher that 2000 will not be able to get a seat. Please note, that cutoff rank is different for every course in every college and they vary as per the reservation category as well. That said, to get admission into IIT you will not be able to do so for a B.Tech course because you will not meet the eligibility criteria for JEE Advance due to year restrcitions. However, you can pursue Robotic Engineering in M.Tech in an IIT.

Good Luck

Hey,
In 2020 the cutoff rank for Mechanical Engineering in IIT KANPUR was 1225. In 2019 it was 890. So nothing can be said as the cutoff varies every year depending on various factors such as:

• Number of students applied
• Number of students appeared in the exam
• Difficulty level plays an important role
• Total number of seats in the institution

You can refer the link for last few year's cutoff ogf IIT KANPUR.

Since the exam is not yet conducted, it is difficult to say anything about the cutoff for this year.

Hello Gampa Snehith,

Firstly, you have a wonderful dream of pursuing engineering from India's most prestigious universities IIT KANPUR.

Since you are just studying in class 12th you have all the time to prepare for JEE MAINS as well as JEE ADVANCED.

What people say and perceive of you is a mirror image of what they think about themselves. So it should be of no concern to you. People around us are mostly who never succeed in their respective lives and never want you to move forward and do something great and achieve something which is just Wow.

Just focus on the studies you do, ignore all the talks that people make about you, work on yourself, keep the focus on you, your health both physical and mental.

The Indian testing system is designed in such a way where the student is checked both in studies as well as your mental strength.

And always remember WHERE THERE'S A WILL THERE'S A WAY.

ALL THE BEST

Dear,

I would say that Computer Science, Mathematics & Computing, Manufacturing Science and Economics are some great courses. These are branches that are generally available in different and mutually exclusive rank ranges and thus this gives a good option for entire spectrum of ranks that one can end up with.

But the truth is your branch creates little difference in where you end up after graduating from the old IITs. What matters is getting into the institute.

The institute offers same opportunities to all the students irrespective of their branches. Its these opportunities that helps these students progress better than that of any other engineering graduate. These opportunities include best peer-to-peer learning environment, abundance of societies to cater to different student interests, freedom to take up extra credits/projects etc., support for national/international level extra-academic events etc.

Hope this helps!

For Jee Advanced 2020 the Minimum Percentage of Marks in Each Subject for SC Category was 2.50% and Minimum Percentage Aggregate Marks was 8.75%.For knowing the detailed cutoffs and cutoff trends you can visit this link- https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-advanced-cutoff

Also the cutoff changes every year as it is based on several factors like difficulty of paper, how many students gave the exam etc. As the competition for old IITs is very high try scoring as much marks as you can.

Hello Aspirant,

According to your profile you are an engineering aspirant, so you might be seeking admission in B.Tech course offered by IIT Kanpur, if not then please mention the correct one in comment section below .

Now as we go through the latest cut-offs of 2020 then it shows that the closing rank for OBC category was 3669 for Biological Sciences and Bioengineering branch in IIT Kanpur and it it is quite difficult to tell you about exact cut-off marks to score because for JEE-Advance no maximum marks are fixed but yes with regards to JEE-Advance 2021 if you secure your AIR in JEE-Advance under top 3600 under OBC category then there are good chances for you to get IIT Kanpur.

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.
