Read the below instructions carefully, before filling up the form:
The Board toppers in the Science stream (PCM) seeking admission in B.E./M.Sc. should note the following criteria for the selection.
(a). The topper must have taken Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics subjects in 12th class and
(b). He/She must have obtained the highest aggregate percentage of marks in 12th class among all the students who have taken Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics subjects in the Academic Year 2024-2025 in their 12th Board examination. To calculate the aggregate percentage, the aggregate marks should include the marks of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics subjects in addition to other subjects required to pass the 12th examination from the Board under consideration. Further, the Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics subject marks should be included in the aggregate, irrespective of whether the Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics subjects are identified as main/optional/elective in his/her marksheet(s).

will offer admission to a maximum of 4 candidates only under this scheme. If
there are more than four candidates declared as first rank holders by a Board,
the tie shall be eliminated using the following criteria:
I. First, their scores obtained in Mathematics in 12th grade examination will be
considered for separating them.
II. If the tie still exists, then their scores in Physics in the 12th-grade
examination will be considered.
III. If the ties still exist, then they will be eliminated using their scores in
Chemistry in the 12th-grade examination.
IV. If the tie still exists, then the score in Mathematics in the 10th-grade
will be considered for separation.
V. If the tie still exists, then the score in Science in the 10th-grade will be
considered for separation.
VI. If the situation warrants, the Admission committee reserves the right to add
any additional criteria including a written test, to break the tie. Any such
criteria will be announced to the candidates who have applied for admission
