With the admission for various engineering courses now at the peak, one of the most common queries that students have is the likely cutoff for selection to various colleges. Which are the colleges that I may get selected to? What is the score/rank needed for selection to a highly reputed branch at a top college? These questions trouble each and every student (and parent). Accordingly, we bring to you this series of articles on cutoffs for admission to colleges in Maharashtra that offer undergraduate programs in engineering and technology. In these articles, we would take a look at the closing ranks for admissions to the colleges in Maharashtra in the academic year 2014-15. This would give you a good idea of the expected cutoffs for the academic year 2015-16.

Do note that admissions to engineering colleges in the state of Maharashtra are based on candidates’ performance in the JEE (Main) exam and in their 12th board exams. For each candidate, a composite score is calculated wherein 50% of the weight is given to the candidate’s performance in the JEE (Main) – Paper 1 and the remaining 50% weight is given to the percentile secured by the candidate in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics in his board exams. A merit list is then prepared on the basis of each candidate’s composite score. Candidates are admitted to various engineering colleges in Maharashtra on the basis of this merit list.

In this article, let us take a look at the closing ranks for admissions to the K.J.Somaiya College of Engineering, Vidyavihar, Mumbai in the year 2014-15.

The K.J.Somaiya College of Engineering was established in 1983. It is approved by AICTE and is affiliated to Mumbai University and the institute is also approved by DTE, Maharashtra State, Mumbai.

The college has a well equipped library, smart classrooms and various workshops and labs for the students. The college is also known to encourage entrepreneurs.

This college offers undergraduate programs in Computer engineering, Information Technology, Electronics engineering, Electronics & Telecommunication engineering and Mechanical engineering.
