IIEST Shibpur - Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology Howrah Answered Questions

If you are a general rank holder, then getting into the above -mentioned streams in any of the known government engineering colleges will be difficult for you, (I think you can try out IT at Jalpaiguri or Kalyani government engineering colleges, you might be fortunate enough in the 3rd round)
Unfortunately, there will be no room for you in JU and IIEST Shibpur with the above-mentioned rank, provided if you are a general category student.
However if you opt to study in non-government engineering colleges, you can get IT in IEM but not CSE, same with Heritage, IT is a guarantee however if you are lucky enough, you can get CSE in perhaps the 3rd or 4th round of counselling in Heritage.
PS: Some guy has mentioned about a WB domicile being required at JU, here I recommend people having no information or less information should not answer and simply pass the question on. Jadavpur University along with some other self financing universities does not demand a WB domicile for admissions.
Good luck to you.:)

Hi Ayushi,
Both the colleges are esteemed institutions of engineering. BIT Mesra is having an edge over IIEST in the placements.
However, IIEST has been given the status of an 'Institute of National Importance' recently, so it is at par with BIT Mesra in terms of academics.
I would suggest you to go for BIT Mesra because of the environment and learning atmosphere there. It is the place for overall development and enhancing one's own set of skills. This place not only makes you technically sound but also provides you with the opportunity for the final placements.
Best wishes.

Hi buddy, you can use this link to find out your answer. This is Shiksha's official college predictor tool.
Although, according to me, you have slim chances of getting this college.

Hope this helps. All the best.

I don't know about IIEST Shibpur as it will obviously factor in your JEE Mains AIR (paper 2 if yo're going for B.Arch and to secure a good AIR with 57% in chose is not possible. (I think they set the minimum cutoff at 60% to appear for counselling). Even though to GET Architecture in JU you need to merely give the NATA exam (the score is irrelevant), even JU has a minimum cutoff of 60% in boards. I'd suggest, if your board permits it, appear for an improvement examination.
