Hello Aspirant,

As we go through the latest cut-offs of JEE-Main 2020 of JOSAA 6th round then it shows that :-

Closing CRL rank for NIT Rourkela was :-

  • Electrical Engineering branch - 18831(Home state quota)

And your CRL rank as mentioned by you is 27,000 so you have quite less chances to get NIT Rourkela with Electrical Engineering branch even if you have Home state quota.

But yes if you improve your rank in JEE-Main like around 15000-18000 then you might have a shot at NIT Rourkela.

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

Note that the above prediction is made on the basis of latest cut-offs available on official website of JOSAA or CSAB 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.

Good Luck!!

The two institutes you have mentioned are one of the top engineering and preferred colleges in India. So if you wish to go for any of the two then you have to choose on the basis of the course of your preference. Now chemical Engineering and Civil Engineering both have very good scopes. Now if we see the placements of NIT Rourkella Chemical Engineering, then undoutedly it have a better placement rate compared to that of the NIT Raipur Civil Engineering. The average packages offered are around Rs 8LPA where as for the NIT Raipur its around Rs. 6LPA. So if considered, its quite clear that NIT Rourkella offers you a better exposure to the industry than that of NIT Raipur.

Hello aspirant.

No, You wont be eligible for state quota of NIT Rourkela.

For you to be eligible for state quota of NIT Rourkela you had to complete your 10+2(class 12) from Odisha but you did it from Maharashtra so  will be eligible  for home state quota of NIT in Maharashtra(VNIT nagpur) only.

Hope it helps.

NIT, Rourkela is better than MN NIT, Allahabad.because the campus of NIT Rourkela is better than that of the campus of MN NIT, Allahabad. however if you are an CS or IT aspirant then NIT Allahabad is better. but NIT Rourkela has better infrastructure and research facilities when compared with the latter.

Dear aspirant !

Hope you are doing great ! You mentioned four different colleges and different branches buy i don't think that they will involve in any software related work ,you should look for different options if you want to go in software companies .

Hope it helps you !

Thanking you !!

Hello aspirant,

I hope you are doing well and good.I am answering this question assuming that you don’t have any preference of branch.


I don’t have much idea about NIT Rourkela. But I think placements for mining is not that good. EE at NIT Manipur is good in terms of placements and prospects for higher education. If you are getting EE at NIT Manipur then you may look towards IT in NIT Manipuras well which has better placements.


Goodluck!!!

Dear aspirant,

As you have secured the life science branch and taking into consideration you are from the moc subjects so let me tell you that in terms of placements the average package of the current year stayed around 9.36L per annum.

The life science branch has also decent placements but I would recommend you to do masters also for getting a good pathway in future because it would matter a lot.

For more information you can check out the link given below -

Thinking of the future benefits that you can avail, I think studying Chemical Engineering would be a wise choice among the three. Now coming to NIT Bhopal, overall the college provides great academic environment, faculties are quite helpful and your career would be embraced. Placement Package starts from 4-7 LPA. But once suggestion try to read the subjects with interest or chapters would be quite difficult but if you build up your attraction, it would be very easy to you.
