With a rank of 3870, your prospects of receiving CSE at Heritage are very good. According to the 2021 cutoff trends, the required cutoff for the branch was 3214.
If you have got ECE in the first round of counseling there is no risk entering into the 2nd round as you will not lose your allocated seat. Additionally, you cannot lock your seat in the first round. This option is available only after the second round of counseling.
The bottom line is that once you've been allocated a college and a major, it can’t be taken away. It will only be upgraded if someone above you does not enroll in the college or the course to which they have been assigned. CSE is available and is simple to obtain. Also, I believe there is no risk factor; therefore, you may keep your seat and proceed to the second round of counseling.
Prior to any discussion, the cut off, with regard to the difficulty level of SNAP, changes each individual year. Thus, predicting it can be quite tough. To put more accurately, the cut-off of 2020 for SIBM Bangalore was about 88.6954 percentile.
The cut off differences of SIBM Bangalore is as mentioned below for 2020 and 2021.
Respective Year of Cut off |
Expected SNAP Cut off |
2021 |
Score Range: 23-25 Percentile: 90 |
2020 |
Percentile: 88 |

If you have an aggregate percentile of above 90%, you can go with IMI Delhi as the marks are not evaluated subject-wise. However at XIMB, they have mentioned that they will have a sectional cut-off, but you are above 50% in all the sections.
But before you choose any of the institutes, you should ask yourself, if you put enough effort into quants and DILR while preparing. If the answer is no. Then, it will be better to prepare for another year and aim for a better score.
If you put in the hard work now, you can get into a much better B-School like IIMs, SPJ, etc. A better school means more academic pressure, but in the end, you will end up with a better CTC and a reputed company. In corporate life, pressure is not available, so why not aim to do it with a better salary?
If you put in 18 hours of work for 6-7 months, your percentile will definitely improve. And if staying motivated is a challenge for you, you can get a mentor who will push you to do better.
So, although IMI and XIMB are pretty good options, it will be better if you try to better your percentile.
My brother is a B.Tech pass out from Electronics Engg. at IIT (BHU). His experience was absolutely disappointing and he told me about the bitter reality of IIT BHU. The faculty is very unqualified and the curriculum is obsolete and irrelevant to the current trends in the industry.
You will be surprised to know that some profs don't even have Ph.D. despite the fact that they are the only professors for that subject in the dept. Also, the administration of the college will provide a total of friction against any kind of endeavors you may seek. You will find some professors really difficult to tolerate. Though the current HOD is an excellent professor/researcher and very progressive/dynamic; so is not the case with the entire dept.
The TPO cell is very stagnant; they have a very weird logic of inviting core companies. Getting a new company approved for placement is next to impossible. The placement rate itself is very very bad. As per the research quality of the department, there are no research groups for many important core domains. It's extremely disappointing with it being an IIT and all and having worse research scope than an NIT in many fields. Also, they won't encourage independent research.
You don't have enough electives to choose from. The classrooms are gloomy.
While you can, go to a good NIT, or a BITS Pilani college. Electronics Engg in IIT (BHU) is a bitter disappointment.
