hi,

For admission into Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (often called IIT Mumbai), the required rank in Joint Entrance Examination Advanced depends on the branch and your category. For top branches like Computer Science, you typically need a rank within ~1–70 (General category). For Aerospace Engineering, the closing rank is usually around ~1500–2500 (General). Cutoffs vary each year based on difficulty, seat matrix, and competition. Reserved categories (OBC, SC, ST) have comparatively relaxed ranks. To be safe, aim for the best possible rank, ideally within the top 2000 for good core branches at IIT-B.

An SC student needs about 200–250+ marks and a rank under 700 to get Aerospace at IIT Bombay.

SC rank needed → around under 700

 Marks needed → roughly 200 – 250+ (approx)

 Aerospace at Indian Institute of Technology Bombay is highly competitive, so:

Below 200 → very low chance

200–250 → possible

250+ → safer side
