Q:   Can I get a government seat for CSE branch in B.Tech with 40529 rank in ap eamcet?

A:
Hello Diwakar, if I may say so your ranking in the entrance exam conducted by the state of Andhra Pradesh for admission to engineering colleges is a bit on the lower side. I am afraid with this ranking it would be very tough to get admission in the branch of CSE. This is so because almost every student gives this branch as the first choice and as a result the cutoffs are very stringent. If you want admission only in this branch then the option available to you would be to SEE admission in deemed to be universities or management quota of private engineering colleges. Otherwise to help you I am attaching a link that can predict the branch and the college that you can get based on your performance in this examination. https://www.shiksha.com/engineering/ap-eamcet-college-predictor Best wishes to you.
