Engineering Entrance Exam

A GATE score of 500 can be roughly around 40 to 50 raw scores out of 100 marks. However, it can vary depending for each engineering discipline. For example, for CSE it can be around 45 to 56 marks, for mechanical engineering it can correspond around 46 - 55, and for ECE it can roughly correspond around 50 to 60 marks depending on the paper difficulty level. 

As per the topped list out by NTA, Shreyas Mishra has topped the JEE Main 2026 session 1 exam.

Honestly speaking, chances are very low.

With 75% in boards and 26 percentile in JEE Main, getting admission to Thapar University (TIET) for BTech is unlikely, even in lower-demand branches. Thapar's cut-offs are usually much higher, especially for JEE-based admissions.

You might have a very slim chance only if:

• Seats remain vacant in later counselling rounds

• You're open to non-core / less demanded branches

• You have Punjab domicile or reserved category
