so while fillin the option form for 1st,2nd or 3rd round be careful.do not give lower cut off wala options.for eg. if u have 175,and u give the 3rd option as welingkar(1st=JB,2nd=sydenham obviously),it may so happn that u get into welingkar in d 1st round itself and then miss out on sydenham in the subsequent rounds.
similarly if u have say about 162 or so just fill d options upto welingkar and somaiyya.dont give your 5th option as PUMBA caz it may turn out that u get into PUMBA in d 1st round itself and then miss out on upgradation to welingkar in the subsequent rounds.so guys/gals keep you heads on your shoulders while you fill the option form.my advice will be to stick to the top 4,viz.JB,SYDEN,WELING,SOMAIYYA for the first 3 rounds(ofcourse if u hav scored decent).u can run for other lower colleges during the 4th(counselling)round.
