Hello there,

With a 142,000 rank in KCET , getting a seat in the Computer Science Engineering (CSE) branch may be quite challenging, especially in top or mid-tier colleges. However, you might still have some options:

Possible Options:

1. Private Engineering Colleges:

   • Acharya Institute of Technology, Bangalore
   • Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology, Bangalore
   • RNS Institute of Technology, Bangalore
   • Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering, Bangalore
   • Sri Venkateshwara College of Engineering, Bangalore
     
     

2. Government-Aided Colleges:

   Recommended
   • Government Engineering College, Haveri (less likely but possible depending on the branch availability)
     
     

3. Emerging Private Colleges:

   • Bangalore Institute of Technology
   • PES College of Engineering, Mandya
     
     Factors to Consider:
     
     

4. Branch Availability:

   • CSE is a highly sought-after branch, so cutoffs are generally high. Your chances might be better for other branches like Civil Engineering , Mechanical Engineering , or Electrical Engineering in these colleges.
     
     

5. Counseling Rounds:

   • Participate in all rounds of KCET counseling, as cutoffs can fluctuate and seats might open up in later rounds.
     
     

6. Management Quota:

   • Consider management quota seats in private colleges if you are open to higher fees. These seats might offer a chance for CSE.

With a rank of 142,000, getting a CSE seat in top or mid-tier colleges is unlikely. However, you might still have a chance in private engineering colleges and potentially in some lower-ranked government-aided institutions. Keep participating in counseling and explore all available options.
