Hello student,

The percentile required for admission to Instrumentation and Control, Production, or Chemical Engineering in various institutes depends on several factors, including the specific entrance exam, the institution, and the category you belong to.

Here is a general guide based on entrance exams like JEE Main , JEE Advanced , and other state-level exams:

1. JEE Main (for NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs):

  • General Category: To secure a seat in competitive branches like Instrumentation and Control , Production , or Chemical Engineering , a percentile of 90+ (preferably around 95-98% ) is often needed for NITs.

  • Reserved Categories (SC, ST, OBC, EWS): A lower percentile, typically around 60-80% , may suffice, but it varies for each category and institution.

    2. JEE Advanced (for IITs):

  • General Category: For top IITs, you would need a rank within 10,000 to 15,000 for branches like Chemical Engineering . For Instrumentation and Control or Production Engineering , the rank needed would likely be within 15,000-30,000 , depending on the IIT.

  • Reserved Categories: Similar to JEE Main, reserved categories typically require a lower rank and percentile.

    3. State-Level Exams (e.g., KCET, MHT CET, AP EAPCET):

  • Instrumentation and Control, Chemical, and Production Engineering branches can be more competitive in certain states. The required percentile or rank varies, but usually, 90+% or a high rank (for instance, under 5000-7000 ) is needed for better government or reputed private colleges.

    Important Notes:

  • The cutoffs vary each year depending on factors like the difficulty level of the exam, the number of applicants, and the specific institutions.

  • Private colleges may have a lower cutoff compared to government institutions .

It is always advisable to check the specific cutoff details for the institutions you are targeting, as they are updated annually after each exam session.
