Hello amaan,

study hard. practice numericals. go through different books for different question patterns. solve previous year question papers. try to score above 85%  of total marks. if you get 98 percentile then your rank will be near to 17k.

at IIIT, a rank below 20k is considered for admission for general category for CSE branch. AI and data science comes in CSE , IT semester. Even you belong to other branch you can still study AI.

thanks
