IIT (BHU) Varanasi JEE Advanced Cutoff

IIT (BHU) Varanasi offers a Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.) with 8 specializations. One can get admission to any of these programs by appearing for the IIT JEE Advanced examination.

JoSAA (Joint Seat Allocation Authority) controls the entire admission procedure. A total of 7 rounds of admissions and counseling take place each year. The cutoff is released in the form of opening and closing ranks. It is further divided into categories and each category is further divided on the basis of gender.

CSE aspirants require a rank below 500 to get into IIT(BHU) Varanasi. Getting admission into the B.Tech. program is a difficult feat to achieve.

Courses	Closing Rank (2019)	Closing Rank (2018)
Computer Science and Engineering	509	796
Electrical Engineering	2054	3026
Mechanical Engineering	3177	4268
Chemical Engineering	4048	6421
Civil Engineering	4928	6842
Metallurgical Engineering	6026	8169
Mining Engineering	8263	10212
Ceramic Engineering	8335	10448

From the table given above it is very evident that last year the cut off Rank in every department was really high as compared to the previous year. Students with comparatively lower ranks in the final JEE Advanced merit list managed to get admission into one of the courses at IIT Varanasi. The difficulty level of the JEE Advanced 2019 question paper could be a possible reason for the drop in the cutoff.

Students usually prefer other IITs like IIT Delhi, IIT Bombay, IIT Kharagpur, and IIT Madras over IIT(BHU) Varanasi and thus the cutoffs for these colleges are often much higher.

Here is a comparison of cutoffs between a few other IITs :

Courses	IIT Hyderabad	IIT Gandhinagar	IIT Indore	IIT (BHU)
Computer Science and Engineering	203-613	1047-1548	640-1020	509-796
Electrical Engineering	808-1774	1564-3299	1868-3295	2054-3026
Mechanical Engineering	1955-3284	3259-4476	3417-4801	3177-4268
Chemical Engineering	3729-5596	4744-6671	5577-6508	4048-6421

As per the data presented above, it is evident that getting admission to CSE at IIT (BHU) is quite challenging as compared to IIT Indore or IIT Gandhinagar. Although, in other streams, it is somewhat easier to secure admission at IIT (BHU) than at IIT Hyderabad, although, there is a cut-throat competition between the rest.
