Have a question related to IIT Kanpur ?

How much has to get in jee advanced to get free in IIT BOMBAY,IIT KANPUR,IIT KANPUR

Hello Aspirant,

There is no concept of getting a free seat in IITs . You need to clear jee advanced to get into these colleges . And you need to be under atleast 2-3k to get a good branch in these IITs in these colleges.

The cut offs although varies a bit depending upon the certain factors such as number of candidates appearing in the examination, previous year cutoffs and difficulty level of the paper.

Choose Wisely.

All the best!!!
