I am a sc female from Punjab .....is 150 is enough to get nit allahabad ECE branch in jee mains 2025

Hello Ankita,

With a score of 150 in JEE Mains 2025, being an SC female candidate from Punjab , your chances of securing a seat in NIT Allahabad (Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology) for the ECE branch can be moderate but not guaranteed. Here's a breakdown:

Factors Affecting Admission:

1. SC Category Cut-off : The SC category cut-offs for top NITs like Allahabad are typically lower than the general category cut-offs, but still, NIT Allahabad is one of the top NITs, and competition remains high.
   
   

2. Previous Trends : In recent years, the cut-off rank for SC candidates in NIT Allahabad for ECE (Electronics and Communication Engineering) ranged between 5,000 to 10,000 in the JEE Mains rank .
   
   

• With a score of 150 , your rank could be in the range of 15,000-20,000 for the SC category , depending on the overall difficulty of the exam.
  
  
• NIT Allahabad might require a rank under 10,000 in the SC category for ECE, so you may not get it in the first rounds , but waiting till the last rounds of counseling could increase your chances.
  
  Alternative Options:
  
  
• If you do not get ECE in NIT Allahabad, you could still get other branches like Mechanical, Civil , or try other top NITs with similar cut-offs.

Hello,

For admission to NIT Allahabad (now known as MNNIT Allahabad) in the Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) branch, a score of 150 marks in JEE Mains 2025 might not be sufficient, especially for SC category candidates.

It has also been seen that the cutoff for NITs, especially popular branches like ECE, tends to be in the range of 200 to 250 marks for general candidates and even lower in some cases for reserved category candidates. However, it is safe to assume that the fluctuations in the cutoffs may occur due to the overall performance of the candidates, applicants, and the specific policy at their time.

It's advisable to aim for a score above 160-180 marks to enhance your chances. For the most accurate predictions, you can keep an eye on trends from the previous year’s cutoffs and official NIT announcements closer to the admission period.

For more information, refer to official sources like the JoSAA website for updated cutoff trends.
