The closing rank for IIT Hyderabad in 2022 was 43. So, if you secure a merit rank of 3 in the UCEED 2024 exam, you chances of admission to the B. Des will be very low. To have a good chance of admission into the institute, you must target a UCEED 2024 merit rank within the top 40. However, note that if you belong to reserved categories, in that case the cut-off would be lower. Further, you will be considered for admission under both the reserved category and open category.

IIT Bombay is among the most popular institutes to pursue a design course in India. So, it is no surprise that cut-off for admission to the institute is pretty high. For instance, for the academic session 2022-23, the Round I cut-off rank for the Open category was 16. The category-wise cut-off ranks for OBC-NCL category was 14, while the cut-off was 5 for SC and 3 for ST. Note that cut-off tends to get lower as we move from the 1st to the 3rd round of seat allotment. This happens because if there is any vacancy, it is allotted to the candidate next in the order of merit.

IIT Bombay will release the question paper and answer keys for UCEED 2024 soon after the conclusion of the design entrance exam. However, it may be noted that the order in which a question appears may differ for each candidate. So, the candidates must use the Master Question Paper uploaded on the official UCEED website. Use it as a reference to upload comments or feedback against the draft key. If comments are uploaded using the Master Question Paper, it will help the committee to map the candidates comments/queries to the right question.
