There has been an increase in seat capacity for CSE in recent years and hence there are more chances for students to get admission. Here is the recent JEE Mains cutoff for IIIT Guwahati.
Branch |
Cutoff |
CSE |
1642-17835, 4542-7077 |
ECE |
7993-23129, 5567-8387 |
There are two allocation rounds, i.e. JOSAA and CSAB. If you visit the JOSAA website, you will see that the cutoff is small. So, it is better to wait for the CSAB allocation round. There you will be given new branches as a choice. The majority of students hold their choice in the last rounds of JOSAA fearing that they may end up with a bad branch in the CSAB round and that is the reason the closing ranks are so high after the CSAB.
Lastly, there is also a spot round in the Institute in which if you participate your chances of getting a seat increases even further even if you have got a seat somewhere else.
