Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology (TIET), commonly known as Thapar University, is a prestigious private engineering and technology higher education institute located in Patiala, Punjab, India. Established in 1956, it is known for its quality education in engineering and technical fields.
Thapar University is consistently ranked among the top engineering institutes in India and is particularly renowned for its Computer Science, Electronics and Electrical Engineering programs. The university follows a JEE Main based admission process for its undergraduate engineering programs.
How the Predictor Works
Our Thapar University Branch Predictor uses the latest cutoff data from JEE Main-based admissions to predict your chances of getting into various branches based on your rank and category.
The predictor compares your rank with the closing ranks of previous year admissions and calculates your probability of admission using a sophisticated algorithm that considers:
- Your JEE Main rank
- Your category (General Outside Punjab, General Punjab, SC/ST, etc.)
- Historical cutoff trends for each branch
Pro Tip:
The more competitive your rank (lower number), the higher your chances of securing a seat in your preferred branch.
Using the Predictor Tool
Following these simple steps to use our Thapar University Branch Predictor:
- Enter your JEE Main rank in the designated field
- Select your category from the dropdown menu (e.g., GENO for General Outside Punjab, GENP for General Punjab)
- Click the "Predict Branches" button
- Review your results and admission chances
Important Note:
This predictor is based on historical data and provides estimates only. Actual cutoffs may vary year to year based on factors like number of applicants, difficulty of JEE Main, and available seats.
Understanding Results
After submitting your rank and category, the tool will display a list of branches at Thapar University that you may be eligible for, along with your chances of admission.
The results show:
- Branch Code: The abbreviated code for the branch (e.g., COE, COPC, ECE)
- Branch Name: The full name of the engineering branch
- Cutoff Rank: The last rank admitted in your category for that branch
- Chances: Your probability of admission (High, Good, Moderate, or Low)
The chances are calculated as follows:
| Probability Badge | What it Means | Rank Compared to Cutoff |
|---|---|---|
| High | Very strong chance of admission | Your rank is better (lower) than 70% of the cutoff rank |
| Good | Strong possibility of admission | Your rank is between 70-85% of the cutoff rank |
| Moderate | Fair chance of admission | Your rank is between 85-100% of the cutoff rank |
| Low | Admission is unlikely | Your rank is higher than the cutoff rank |
