AIEEE 2008 Counseling  

The first phase of AIEEE 2008 Counseling ie. the Online counseling will start from tomorrow. So let me first discuss a few details about it.

The online counseling is a kind of mock counseling held on the Internet where students can register themselves and then fill out there preferences of institutes/branches. You can see then how many students are above your rank for a branch/institute. This counseling is held to give the students a rough idea on what they can expect but only a few students register for it and hence you do not get a clear picture.

The choices in Form-1 that you make during the online counseling are recorded by them and are presented to you when you go for on-campus counseling, although you can change them during the on-campus counseling.

Many if you would not be knowing about Form-1 and Form 2, so let me tell more about them. Form-1 is a branch+institution form. In this form you have to choose your preferences according to branch and institution simultaneously, pretty much similar to what you do in JEE counseling. So for eg. your first preference would be CSE in IIIT Hyderabad, CSE in NIT Trichy, CSE in NIT Warangal , ECE in IIIT Hyderabad etc.

Form-2 is an institution only selection form. This form comes into the action after Form-1 processing has taken place and you have not got any branch+institution that you had mentioned in your Form-1. So if you filled Form-2 then if there is any vacant seat(dropout seat) in any of the institutions selected by you in Form-2, then you would get that institution. After that you will be required to go to that institute and they would allocate you the branch based upon vacant seat and your rank.

There would also be a second counseling against dropout seats from first counseling. Although, some institutes have opted not to take part in the second counseling, you can check them out here. Some of these institutes, if they have a few dropout seats, then they sometimes conduct separate independent counselings in August, for which you have to keep your eye on the newspapers!!

Now coming to the big question : Whether to fill Form-1 or Form-2 or both?

AIEEE 2008 Cutoff  

Check out details about AIEEE 2008 Counseling.

The AIEEE 2008 Paper was held all across the country today. The paper had equal distribution of questions and marks in each subject. The paper had 35 questions in all three subjects and each question carried 3 marks for correct answer and -1 mark for incorrect answer. The Maths section had assertion and reasoning type questions while the Physics section had a passage. I have gone through the paper and have made the following analysis :

  • The pattern change has made the paper a bit difficult
  • No. of questions reduced to help students score more
  • Overall difficulty level increased
  • Physics was the toughest paper out of the three

You can also see the AIEEE 2008 Solutions .

I have gone over the paper thoroughly and  have taken feedback from many students who appeared for AIEEE 2008 and have compiled the list of the rank you can expect on the marks you are expecting in AIEEE 2008.

Actual AIEEE 2007 ranks according to marks obtained in AIEEE 2007:

The comments are now getting repeated and it is not humanly possible to reply to all the comments. So I will answer the most general questions here itself.

  • You can know your expected rank by looking at the table for expected AIEEE 2008 ranks posted by me above.
  • Cutoff for AIEEE 2008 central counseling is expected to be about 80-85 marks if the number of seats are increased due to OBC quota else it will be about 95-100 marks
  • Your admission to NITs and some of other institutes depends on the state you belong to as there are fixed number of seats allocated per state in each NIT.
  • Take a look at this link to find out which institute you can get at your rank by searching for your state code and the category you belong to.

IIT JEE 2008 Cutoff  

The IIT-JEE 2008 paper was held today ie. on 13th April 2008. I have gone over both the paper and after analyzing them I have come to the conclusion that JEE this year was difficult than last year. The questions were trickier and hence paper was lengthier. So although cutoffs will dip this year don’t expect them to dip too much. You can check the solutions to IIT JEE 2008.

In 2007, The overall cutoff was 206 marks. The subject cutoffs were 1,2 and 4 which really don’t count much.

The branch wise opening and closing ranks for each branch in every IIT for IIT JEE 2007 can be found on IIT website. Thanks to Himanshu Gupta,my friend who helped me in finding this link :)

Insider info : A guy named Shitikant is scoring 456 marks in IIT JEE 2008 according to Bansal solutions and has taken coaching from Bansal Classes. So he could well be the topper of IIT JEE 2008!!

Expected IIT JEE 2008 cutoff for admission: 185-190 marks

Expected IIT JEE 2008 cutoff for last rank : About 175 marks (7200 rank)

Expected IIT JEE 2008 Extended Merit List Cutoff : 150 marks

Subject cutoffs are expected to be about at maximum of 20 marks

This is because to clear a subject cutoff you need to be in to 20% of the total marks scored by all the students in that subject. So this will lead to very low subject cutoffs and most of you will be able to clear that.
