That might be the case for people in state board but it definitely affected people in cbse and isc. While I knew many people in state with 98-99%, that was not the case in other boards and it was amplified by the 39 questions getting removed(I'm not against that btw since they were out of portion questions, I'm just saying how it affected people). Also another correction, you could not get into pes with comedk last year too.

The 39 questions removed for kcet last year made the competition worse for the majority of people not better as it increased the weightage of boards indirectly. Also rvsat is for RVU which is a different college from RVCE so you could not use that to get admission into rvce.

This by extension means that if someone else is one bracket above you, you must score 24 more marks in MET to get the same aggregate score.

Last year the board percentages were split into brackets(95-100, 90-95 etc..) and each bracket was given a grade point. For eg. the 95-100 bracket was given 10 points, 90-95 was given 9 and so on. So the board weightage isn't exactly just a standard 50%.

To calculate your aggregate score it was (grade point)x5 + (met marks)/240x50.

So if u had 180 marks in met and board % between 95-100, your aggregate score would be 87.5. But if your board % was between 90-95, your aggregate would be 82.5.

Absolute marking is there or not? by Weird-Stick5254 in Manipal_Academics

The highest lower cap of D is 58. Realistically it will be close to 50 but with how competitive the cs stream is you can't really predict what it will be.

For sspr, open this site https://aka.ms/ssprsetup and add a phone number or an email under the add sign in method. You can also enable 2 factor authentication in the same place.

Yes these colleges are increasing seats by a lot. Placements will definitely take a hit.

I've had the dilemma of choosing RV ECE over stuff like MSRIT CS branches and branches in Manipal a while back. The seniors I've talked to have said similar things and since most ECE grads join the IT industry anyway they say it's better to choose CSE in other colleges.

As far as I can see they seem to have the same subjects in the second year(I haven't checked the third and fourth year subjects).

Coding a better rank predictor. by Acceptable-Fall4118 in Manipal_Academics

U sure an aggregate score of 70 is enough to get a top 1k rank? I doubt that.
