My GATE score is 357 with SC category, can I get nit delhi for CSE

Hello Anjali,

With a GATE score of 357 in the SC category, securing admission to the Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) program at NIT Delhi might be challenging, but it’s not impossible. Here are some considerations:

1. Previous Year Cutoffs:

• NIT Delhi CSE Cutoffs: Typically, NIT Delhi has higher cutoffs for CSE, often ranging from 600 and above. Your score of 357 might be lower than the typical cutoff for the General category.
  
  
• SC Category Relaxation: There is usually a relaxation for SC/ST categories, so cutoffs are lower compared to the General category. Check previous years’ cutoffs for SC category specifically for a more accurate assessment.
  
  2. Other NITs and Institutions:
  
  
• Other NITs: If admission to NIT Delhi seems uncertain, consider applying to other NITs or institutes where the cutoff may be lower.
  
  
• Other Institutes: Many other engineering institutes also accept GATE scores and may have cutoffs that are more achievable with your score.
  
  3. Special Considerations:
  
  
• Application Process: Keep track of the application process and deadlines for NIT Delhi and other institutions.
  
  
• Counseling: During the counseling process, make sure to select NIT Delhi and other institutions you are interested in, as sometimes seats become available in later rounds.
