Chaitanya Engineering College, Vishakhapatnam

We continue to
guide you on the various colleges that admit students on the basis of their
performance in the EAMCET. One of the most common queries that students have is
the likely cutoff for selection to various colleges. Which are the different
colleges that I may get selected to? What is the minimum score needed for
selection to a highly reputed branch at a top college? These questions trouble
every single student (and their parents). Accordingly, we bring to you this
series of articles on colleges that select students on the basis of their
performance in the Andhra Pradesh EAMCET (Engineering and Medical Common
Entrance Test). In these articles, we take a look at the opening and closing
ranks for admissions to these colleges in 2013-14. These articles would give
you a brief idea of the expected opening and closing ranks in 2015-16.

The EAMCET is
conducted for entry to various professional degree courses in the state of
Andhra Pradesh. Various universities of Andhra Pradesh give admission to
students in courses related to medical, engineering and agriculture on the
basis of their performance in this exam. The Andhra Pradesh State Council of
Higher Education (APSCHE) organizes the EAMCET in affiliation with Jawaharlal
Nehru Technological University (JNTU). This year, the exam is scheduled on the
8th of May.

Engineering
aspirants taking the EAMCET need to answer a total of 160 questions on Physics,
Chemistry and Mathematics. The test involves no negative marking. The question
paper is available in English and Urdu. However, only candidates from the
Hyderabad centre can avail the question paper in Urdu.

This particular
article covers Chaitanya Engineering College, Vishakhapatnam.

This college was
established in 2002 and is spread across a sprawling 50 acres campus. It is
approved by the AICTE and is affiliated to JNTU, Kakinada. The institute is
