Hi.

Cut-offs are the minimum required marks for a candidate to be deemed as ‘Qualified’ in the examination. There are cut-off ranks as well which means the highest rank that a college has accepted a student into. Example, if cutoff rank for an engineering college is 2000 then all the students who have gotten a rank higher that 2000 will not be able to get a seat. Please note, that cutoff rank is different for every course in every college and they vary as per the reservation category as well. That said, to get admission into IIT you will not be able to do so for a B.Tech course because you will not meet the eligibility criteria for JEE Advance due to year restrcitions. However, you can pursue Robotic Engineering in M.Tech in an IIT.

Good Luck

Hey,
In 2020 the cutoff rank for Mechanical Engineering in IIT KANPUR was 1225. In 2019 it was 890. So nothing can be said as the cutoff varies every year depending on various factors such as:

  • Number of students applied
  • Number of students appeared in the exam
  • Difficulty level plays an important role
  • Total number of seats in the institution

You can refer the link for last few year's cutoff ogf IIT KANPUR.

Since the exam is not yet conducted, it is difficult to say anything about the cutoff for this year.

Hello Gampa Snehith,

Firstly, you have a wonderful dream of pursuing engineering from India's most prestigious universities IIT KANPUR.

Since you are just studying in class 12th you have all the time to prepare for JEE MAINS as well as JEE ADVANCED.

What people say and perceive of you is a mirror image of what they think about themselves. So it should be of no concern to you. People around us are mostly who never succeed in their respective lives and never want you to move forward and do something great and achieve something which is just Wow.

Just focus on the studies you do, ignore all the talks that people make about you, work on yourself, keep the focus on you, your health both physical and mental.

The Indian testing system is designed in such a way where the student is checked both in studies as well as your mental strength.


And always remember WHERE THERE'S A WILL THERE'S A WAY.


ALL THE BEST


Dear,

I would say that Computer Science, Mathematics & Computing, Manufacturing Science and Economics are some great courses. These are branches that are generally available in different and mutually exclusive rank ranges and thus this gives a good option for entire spectrum of ranks that one can end up with.

But the truth is your branch creates little difference in where you end up after graduating from the old IITs. What matters is getting into the institute.

The institute offers same opportunities to all the students irrespective of their branches. Its these opportunities that helps these students progress better than that of any other engineering graduate. These opportunities include best peer-to-peer learning environment, abundance of societies to cater to different student interests, freedom to take up extra credits/projects etc., support for national/international level extra-academic events etc.

Hope this helps!

For Jee Advanced 2020 the Minimum Percentage of Marks in Each Subject for SC Category was 2.50% and Minimum Percentage Aggregate Marks was 8.75%.For knowing the detailed cutoffs and cutoff trends you can visit this link- https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-advanced-cutoff

Also the cutoff changes every year as it is based on several factors like difficulty of paper, how many students gave the exam etc. As the competition for old IITs is very high try scoring as much marks as you can.

Hello aspirant,

To pursue Automation and Robotics at IIT Kanpur candidates need to have a CGPA above 5.5. Also you need a valid GATE score. As you are from mechatronics branch you can appear for the GATE Mechanical engineering, paper code ME, It will be more suitable for you than appearing for GATE Electrical.

If you'll appear for GATE electrical it will be different from your branch and will be difficult for you cope with it.

Automation and Robotics welcome candidates from different branches that include

Aerospace Engineering

CSE, ECE, EE,

Mechatronics and Instrumentation Engineering.

Hence apply for GATE for ME paper code. You need not switch to electrical for this.
