What the Round 1 Seat Matrix Contains
The seat matrix lists the total vacancies across Jharkhand engineering institutes. It gives an institute-wise and branch-wise breakdown of available seats. Reservation category quotas are also spelt out clearly.
The board has asked candidates to study the matrix before locking preferences. Blind choice filling often leads to weaker allotment outcomes. The matrix is hosted as a PDF on the counselling portal.
