Admission to the BTech course offered at IIIT Guwahati is entrance-based. Students need to appear and clear JEE Main exam to secure their seat at the institute. JEE Main 2025 application fee is INR 1000 for unreserved category students and INR 800 for reserved category and female candidates. Students need to pay the fee at the time of filling out the application form to complete the registration. The fee mentioned above is taken from official source/sanctioning body and is subject to change.

It is quite important to score well in GATE exam since this only will get you in a good college for your PG in ECE. First thing to do is to make a tine table for covering whole syllabus at least twice before exam. While preparing time table, do remember to assign time for mind and body relaxation. You can think of doing yoga and meditation. But then there are other techniques too. Additionally you should plan and must appear for GATE prepatory exams. Based on analysis of results, you can change priority of study.

The GATE 2026 counselling will start after the declaration of the GATE results (March 19). Candidates who have qualified for the GATE exam are eligible for the counselling. There are two modes of counselling - CCMT and COAP. Candidates who are seeking admission at IITs must register at the COAP portal for counselling. On the other hand, candidates who are seeking admission to NITs and IIITs need to participate in CCMT counselling. The GATE counselling will take place in different rounds, depending on the availability of seats and other factors. 

Candidates are allowed to get admission to the BTech course at Tecno India University without JEE Mains. If the students do not have valid scores in JEE Mains, then they have to secure good scores in the TNJEE entrance examination. JEE (main) ranks have a limited number of seats available (10% of total seats). However, to get admission with JEE main rank, candidates must attend WBJEE counselling. Candiates can also apply for counselling in many other states, such as Gujarat, MP, Uttarakhand, and Maharashtra all use the JEE (mains) score to determine admission.

As you will be appearing for the second attempt in class XII for improvement, so then while filling the form for JEE MAIN, you should opt for “passed”. This is because you already have given your first attempt and you must have got the result of that particular attempt. Hence you will be considered passed.
