With a score of 62 and a rank of 8486, securing admission to a government college for a B.Sc. in Agriculture can be challenging but not impossible. Here’s a strategy you can follow:

1. Check Cutoff Ranks : Review the previous year’s cutoff ranks for government colleges offering B.Sc. Agriculture in your state or the states you are interested in. This will give you an idea of where your rank stands in comparison.

2. State Quota : Most government agricultural colleges reserve a certain number of seats for students from within the state (state quota). If you fall under this category, your chances might improve. Make sure to check the quota system and eligibility for your category (General, OBC, SC/ST, etc.).

3. Counseling Process : Participate actively in the counseling process. During counseling, you’ll need to fill out your preferences for colleges. Research and list colleges where your rank may meet the cutoff. Even if your rank is slightly above the previous cutoff, consider applying, as cutoffs can vary each year.

4. Spot Admissions : If you don’t secure a seat in the initial rounds of counseling, look out for spot admission rounds. Sometimes, seats become available due to withdrawals or non-reporting by allotted candidates.

5. Backup Plan : While focusing on government colleges, also consider applying to private or deemed universities offering B.Sc. Agriculture, which may have more flexible admission criteria.

Stay informed about counseling schedules and keep all necessary documents ready to maximize your chances of admission

hope this helps you!!
