Hello,
If you belong to some category then for sure your category rank will be considered irrespective of the CRL rank. You will be admitted on the basis of your category only .
If you are getting a particular branch in your CRL rank and that is the highest possible branch you can get , then you will be admitted through CRL rank but if because of your category rank you can get higher branch then you will be alloted with category rank.
