sir by how much marks do u think the cut off vl rise this year
thanks in advance

[varunkapoor]

Hi Patrick,

I am a home univ., general category candidate with scores of 140 (99.57 %ile) and 4/6 (PAR+WE) in the CET. I have more than 5 yrs. of Work Ex in IT. I took CET only for JBIMS. Looking at the earlier posts in this thread I believe that with 140+4 it is impossible for me to make it to the JBIMS. Though I am still being very optimistic and won't lose any hope and take the GD-PI, I wanted to know that is it worth considering any other institute for my profile?

Regarding the likely cut-offs, I tried contacting the IMS people and they suggested me that a score of 170 would get me into JBIMS (which even I think is not practical). Also, in one of the other threads in Pagalguy the cut-off is predicted to be as 174-176 (which I personally think is more practical). So, I would like to know how did you derive at a cut-off of 179 for JBIMS when last year the cut-off was 166?

Regards,
Varun.

CET 2006 NT 3 cutoffs :

JBIMS 153 147 (both home seats)

SYDENHM mms 141 (home seat)

SYDENHM PG 154 (other seat)

WELINGKARS 146H 154 O (1 home + 1 other)



CET 2007 cutoffs for NT-3 :


JBIMS : 150 H 143 H 156 O (3 seats = 2 home and 1 other)

Sydenham MMS : ( 0 seats)

Sydenham PG : 148 O ( 1 seat = 0 home + 1 other)

Welingkar : 140 H 148 H ( 2 seats = 2 home + 0 other)





Now my Question is Why the number of seats are differing every year although quota specified for NT 3 candidates is 2 % thruout...

is there any logic via which distribution of seats takes place????

Any idea???

Please reply ..........

A probable way:
Factors to be considered are
1)your current rank/merit number
2)the probable average score in the GDPI of people around your score
3) the number of people likely to not appear for GDPI(since they take place after all the results are out)

We need to take the past data into account for the analysis. For the past 2 years, a score of around 32 in GDPI + par would convert JB at a percentile of 99.80(Rank around 100-150) eventual rank around 45

This year since a lot of people appeared for CET, a percentile of 99.80 would be equivalent to rank 150-175.
Correspondingly 99.83 has to be taken as base, and then adding 32 to it, the expected cutoff comes to arounf 179(Could be more)
last year a lot of people with high scores in written got less in GDPI (high co-relation between one particular centre and low GDPI marks!)

Bottom line?
Cutoff should be 179-180

hey.. how can i get to know my rank based on the CET score?

[nitinmittal]

hello sir ,
I have secured 123/200 and percentile of 97.27 with par 4/6.Also i am an oms student so what are my chances of getting into Pumba,xavier or Dalmia? Looking at last years cutoff I am disappointed that I might not be able to secure admission anywhere.Please if you could suggest few good colleges that I might get through and the procedure for it
Thanx in advance.
