Have a question related to NIT Kurukshetra ?

Hii I am a sc female student from uttarpradesh at what score can I get nit kurukshetra mechanical department in jee 2025

Hello,

A rank between 30,000 to 50,000 in category rank would stand an SC female candidate good for some scope at NIT Kurukshetra for Mechanical Engineering through JEE 2025. Admissions would depend significantly on the cutoffs released every year.

In terms of marks, this translates to around a score of 120-150 in JEE Main. Again, this too depends on multiple factors such as how challenging the paper is, how much seat availability, and the extent of applicants. Since the cutoff keeps changing every year, one should target higher and not less; score 150+ for maximal chances of getting your desired branch and institute.

I am a SC female student from Punjab is 150 marks is enough to get NIT kurukshetra mechanical electronics engineering or electrical branch in 2025

Hello from Careers360,

Thank you for reaching out about NIT Kurukshetra admissions. I appreciate your forward-thinking approach in considering your options for 2025.

Regarding your question about the sufficiency of 150 marks for admission to mechanical, electronics, or electrical engineering at NIT Kurukshetra as an SC female candidate from Punjab, it's important to note that predicting cutoffs for future years can be challenging. Admission trends can change from year to year based on various factors such as the number of applicants, overall performance in the entrance exam, and changes in reservation policies.

That being said, 150 marks is generally considered a competitive score for SC category students. However, the exact cutoffs for 2025 will depend on the competition that year. It's also worth noting that different branches may have different cutoffs, with some being more competitive than others.

To give you a better idea, I'd recommend looking at the cutoff trends for NIT Kurukshetra over the past few years. This information is usually available on their official website or on our Careers360 college page. Analyzing these trends can help you gauge your chances more accurately.

Additionally, as an SC female candidate from Punjab, you may benefit from multiple reservation categories, which could potentially improve your chances of admission.

For the most up-to-date and accurate information, I encourage you to keep an eye on the official NIT Kurukshetra website and the Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) website as your target year approaches. These will provide the most reliable data on cutoffs and admission criteria.

If you'd like more detailed information about NIT Kurukshetra or other engineering colleges, please feel free to explore our website. We have comprehensive guides and resources that can help you in your college selection process.

Do you have any other questions about engineering admissions or career planning? We're here to help!

Hello,

To secure a seat in the Mechanical Engineering branch at NIT Kurukshetra in 2025 through JEE Main as a female candidate from the SC category and other state quota, here are some insights based on previous years' trends:

  1. JEE Main Rank : For the SC category, female students from other states generally needed a JEE Main rank between 35,000 - 45,000 to secure Mechanical Engineering at NIT Kurukshetra. However, this can fluctuate slightly each year.

  2. JEE Main Score : Given that the rank range varies, you would typically need a JEE Main score between 80 - 110 marks. This range is an estimate based on previous cutoffs and can shift based on the difficulty level of the exam and competition.

  3. Category and Gender Quota : Since there is a female and SC category quota , this works in your favor, slightly lowering the required rank compared to the general cutoff for male candidates.

  4. Year-to-Year Variability : Keep in mind that cutoffs can change based on factors like the total number of applicants, performance of candidates in that year, and seat availability.

  5. Target Higher Score : To be on the safer side, aim for a score higher than the estimated range to increase your chances of securing admission.


Hope it helps !
