Can I get admission in AKTU Lucknow?

PG
Pulkit Gupta Posted On : November 17th, 2022
B.Tech in Bachelors in Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University (Graduated 2019)

If you meet the prescribed eligibility criteria and pass their entrance admission assessment, you will definitely get admission in AKTU Lucknow. Visit the university’s official website to know the date of the entrance exam you are willing to pursue. They generally conduct a statewide exam, earlier known as the State Entrance Exam or SEE.

AKTU has both private as well as public educational institutes under it. If you want offers from well reputed colleges you will have to score wel in the assessment of the respective course.

There are 2 scenarios for admissions:

  • Either you get admitted through a regular counseling process. This will require you to pay the stipulated fees prescribed by the university. These seats are often referred to as government seats.

  • Or if you fail to get through the regular counseling process, try to get admission to the college of your choice through the respective institute’s management quota route. 

But the fees of these seats are around twice or thrice the original fees.

What should I do as an undergrad to get into IIM Ahmedabad, IIM Bangalore or IIM Calcutta?

SS
Samiksha Sharma Posted On : November 21st, 2022
MA in Social Work, Jamia Millia Islamia (Graduated 2021)

As an undergraduate, you must complete the following tasks:

  • Better 10th and 12th-grade point averages, at least above 80% in both.

  • Maintain your academic focus.

  • Choose a non-engineering subject for your undergraduate studies. It will help your profile.

  • Attempt to score above the 99th percentile on the CAT. If you want, you can do coaching during your undergrad.

  • Enhance your communication and writing abilities. This will be beneficial in WAT and GD/PI. If you want, you can join Toastmasters or start a blog.

  • If you want, try to participate in some extracurricular activities. This will not improve your IIM chances (unless you have a national-level certificate), but it will add some vibrancy to your profile. Activities can range from being a member of a club or placement cell to creating your own YouTube channel.

  • Perform some internships or work as a freelancer on a project. It will provide fodder for conversation in interviews.

My mat score is 631.5 and my percentile is 80. Can I get admission in XIME Bangalore?

BG

Yes, you can secure a seat at XIME Bangalore, as they accept scores above 600. But as a whole, these marks are not good in the MAT exams. It is better to try out other competitive exams or sit for the next MAT exam and score good marks so that you can choose any leading institute.

Should I apply for the 2nd round with a percentile of 99.233rd at IIIT Hyderabad?

AS
Aishwarya Shastri Posted On : August 1st, 2023
Lives in Hyderabad

No, I don’t think it’s wise to apply for the 2nd round with a percentile of 99.233rd at IIIT Hyderabad. Based on the cutoffs, the minimum percentile required to get IIIT Hyderabad CSE is 99.78 whereas for ECE is 98.87. Even if you end up getting ECE in the subsequent rounds you will end up losing a lot of money. Moreover, paying a sum of 20k just for a single round is not justified especially when your chances are slim. 

Additionally, only half of the fee is considered an advance tuition fee. So you will lose a lot of money whether you get admission or not. It’s better to try another IIIT or a NIT than IIIT Hyderabad. But if you are adamant, you can surely try your luck!

How do admissions happen in FMS Delhi in the CW category?

SP
Sai Pillai Posted On : January 3rd, 2026

Admission chances depend on entrance exam scores, category reservation, state quota, and annual competition levels.

Assessment factors:

  • Previous Cutoff Trends: Analyze last 3 years' data for your category and branch.
  • Category Reservation: Cutoffs vary significantly across General, OBC, SC, ST, and EWS.
  • State Quota Benefits: Home state candidates often have 10-20 percentile lower cutoffs.
  • Branch Popularity: CSE and ECE have higher cutoffs than mechanical or civil.
  • Counseling Rounds: Later rounds may see reduced cutoffs—participate in all rounds.

Use official predictors and last year's cutoff data. Prepare backup options across different rounds and colleges.

How much percentile is required for admission in MDI, JBIMS or FMS?

AM
Anisha Mukhija Posted On : February 20th, 2023
Studied at Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies

My answer does mention the required percentile for each of the B Schools you mentioned. But before I proceed I would like to shed light on the fact that the CAT percentile is not the only factor that determines your admission into a B School. There are other factors you need to work on like academic background, work experience, and GD-PI.

MDI

The college offers PGDM admissions on the basis of CAT and GMAT scores. The expected CAT percentile is around 93-95 and the GMAT score is 680+.

Apart from this, the candidates are expected to have above average academic records, work experience and WAT.

JBIMS 

The institute accepts CAT, MH-CET, and GMAT. The percentile cutoff for the General Category 

CAT: 95

MH-CET: 99.97

GMAT is accepted only for NRIs.

FMS Delhi

This institute is well known for its extremely low fees and the null weightage given to past academics. Thus admissions are based on the CAT percentile for which the cutoff is very high and GD-PI. The CAT percentile can be around 98.3

It is important to note that CAT should not be the only factor to consider while preparing for admission. Interview and GD rounds should also be given equal importance in addition to work experience.

SK
Sanjana Kapoor Posted On : September 30th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

Both GMC and NEIGRIHMS have their own pros and cons. I am listing down the advantages of both-

GMC 

  1. It has more faculty. 
  2. PG coaching centers like DAMS are located near the college itself.
  3. It takes more students. 
  4. It is located near the airport.
  5. It offers better exposure.

NEIGRIHMS 

  1. It is one of the few Indian colleges with a virtual dissection table. 
  2. It is high because it takes just 50 MBBS students every year.
  3. Its campus is clean and beautiful.
  4. Personal attention is given to each of the students by their teachers.

Both GMC and NEIGRIHMS are good medical colleges. You should choose between them based on your own preferences.
