    Thank you.

    can I get admission in jadavpur university with obc b rank 983 and gmr rank 11825 in 2022 WBJEE? I am West Bengal resident

    Dear Applicant

    If you consider the admission possibilities JU is one of the best choices, and admission into that campus is indeed strict. So yes with 11825 GMR and 983 merit rank for Obc-b category, you can expect branches like Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Printing Engineering, Pharmacy, Food Processing Engineering etc branches. However it is just a prediction, you can get a better perception once you get the after counselling seat matrix.

    Good luck!!!

    my wbjee gen rank is 350,i don't have west bengal domicile can i get mechanical or electrical in JADAVPUR UNIVERSITY ?

    First of all congratulations for your result. The cutoffs change every year as it depends on various factors. And Jadavpur University is among the top government Engineering colleges of India. So the cutoffs are enough higher compared to other colleges. Now you don't have West Bengal State Domicile that means you'll he applying through Other state quota and the cutoffs for other state candidates are generally higher than home state candidates. For home state general candidates, mechanical and electrical seats in Jadavpur University are filled within 300 and 200 GMR respectively after round 3 counselling. So the cutoffs for other state candidates will be higher than this. So with 350 rank it will be a bit difficult to get Mechanical or Electrical in Jadavpur Univeristy. You can expect other branches such as, printing Engineering or Food Technology & Bio-Chemical Engineering etc. But you can surely get good private Engineering colleges like IEM, Heritage Institute if Technology, Techno India Salt Lake etc. This is based on last few years' cutoff and this year it might get changed. But you can get into Jadavpur University, may not be Electrical but other branches mentioned above can be achievable.
