Students’ Speak: Options to go for in case of low WBJEE score
By: Swapnaneel Bhuiya
Attaining a good rank is the basic criteria to get admission in the desired college. Focus on attending subsequent counselling sessions instead of dropping a year to secure a seat in a college.
The number of government institutes in the state of West Bengal to get admission through WBJEE is less. Every student focuses on attaining a good rank to get admission in their dream college. To secure a seat in Jadavpur University under the TFW (Tuition Fee Waiver) category, a student must achieve a rank under 500 in Fashion stream and up to 1000 rank for departments like Chemical Engineering and Commercial Engineering. Jadavpur University (JU) is one of the reputed universities to get admission through WBJEEE.
WBJEE is easy as compared to JEE Mains. For securing high marks with a good rank, students must focus on practising and clarifying the basic concepts..
While preparing for WBJEEE, students often prepare for exams like JEE Main, BITSAT,VITEEE, SRM and Manipal to keep other options available. Many private colleges consider JEE principal score for admission including WBJEE colleges.
Always work towards achieving a good rank in competitive exams like WBJEE with complete focus and determination.
