Hi folk,

Hope you are doing great.

Yes you can obviously give the jee advanced next year after giving the improvement this  year and then scoring above the required percentage necessary to take part in the examination.

Giving an improvement exam will help you in preparing for the jee examination as well and also make you prepared for the entrance test so that you can perform well and achieve a good rank in it.

You can further know more about the rules and the regulations regarding the exam and the counselling and then have a good idea of how to prepare for the examination.

Hope this resolves all your query.

There isn't a formal internal upgrade process at IIT Guwahati after all COAP rounds for changing branches.

COAP (Committee on Applied Sciences Programs) is a centralized allotment system ensuring transparency and fairness. Once you have accepted and frozen your seat, it's unlikely to be reopened for internal upgradation.

IIT Guwahati has a specific number of seats allocated for each program. Upgrading you to Geotechnical Engineering might take away a seat from someone who might have preferred it during COAP.

Contact the Department of Civil Engineering at IIT Guwahati. Explain your situation and inquire if there's any exceptional circumstance where an internal transfer might be possible (highly unlikely but worth a try).

While you can't switch branches now, keep these options in mind for the future After completing your B.Tech in Water Resources Engineering, you can pursue an M.Tech in Geotechnical Engineering at IIT Guwahati or other institutes. This would allow you to specialize in Geotechnical Engineering.

Hello aspirant!

Your chances of getting IIT Guwahati with a SC rank of 2262 is quite difficult. However, you might upgrade to better IITs in round 2 than Gandhinagar.

Go through the previous year closing ranks to get an idea where you have chances.

You have to select the branches based on your interest, because each branch is unique.

Thank you.

Hello Ashish,

Specific last year cutoffs for VLSI and Communications are not available. For cutoffs of the 2017 year, you can use below link

These cutoffs are based on no. of students applying for counseling. But the most important thing now is to check if you are eligible to apply for counseling.

According to the official site, the score required to be shortlisted for counseling for SC category should be equal to or more than 400 for communication as well as VLSI course.
