Hello, Piyali. I hope you have performed well in JEE Mains and I wish you all the best for your future. You mentioned you belong to SC category and you are interested to get admission in CSE at IIEST, Shibpur. IIEST, Shibpur offers B.Tech in Computer Science and Technology a nd as per JoSAA counselling , the opening rank for admission in 2020 (females only) for SC - Home State was 459 while the closing rank (females only) for the same was 2417.

However, as per Central Seat Allocation Board (CSAB) counselling ,  the opening rank for admission in 2020 (females only) for SC - Home State was 20878 while that of closing rank was 87176. So, I guess you have noticed the huge variation in Cut-offs as far the counselling organizations and procedures are concerned.

I hope all this information will help you to clear your doubts. I think it will be better to answer in terms of ranks instead of percentiles as the admission procedures generally take rankings into account, rather than considering percentiles.

Thank You.

Hi Sagnik,

Congratulations on your score. Well, judging from your percentile, your rank tends to be somewhere between 85657-115045. Hence, analyzing from previous years' cutoffs as well as keeping your rank in mind, it will be somewhat tough for you to get a seat in Metallurgical or Aerospace Engineering discipline at IIEST (IIEST, Shibpur does not have Chemical Engineering). However, do not be discouraged in the first-go and do appear for the counselling, nobody knows what miracle awaits you. Please find attached the previous years' cutoffs for all disciplines in IIEST here:

Also, coming to the scores of your boards- you do meet all criteria for eligibility. To get into IIEST, an aggregate of 80% in PCM and overall aggregate of 75% in 12th is required, both of which you satisfy. Hope that helped you. Best of luck :)

Hope it helps you..

Best of luck..

See as you are an EWS student then the income aspects of your family is already satisfied. Now if we consider the salary range then also you are not eligible for any scholarship or economical weak student schemes. So essentially you may not need the certificate. But I would advise you to keep the certificate ready because there are always changes in regulations among the colleges. So if there are any issues then you will have to face the problems. So it would be better to keep it ready if required show it or else don't show. But if required and you didn't have the certificate then you may have to face problems.

Hi,

Last year the closing rank for Aerospace Engineering in IIEST -Shibpur was around 4000 SC Rank for other state students. Taking this cutoff in consideration, it is Difficult to get Aerospace Engineering in IIEST. However you could get this branh if there were seats left for Special round councelling because usually special round has very less closing rank.

In order to predict what other colleges you could get , you should use this tool :

Dear Ankita , what is your general rank?

Your eligibility for the mentioned colleges will depend on your general rank and not on your category rank. Though it is difficult to predict this because the cut-off varies every year depending on the number of applicants, difficulty level of exam , availability of seats etc. Moreover, do specify the branches which you are interested in.
