The result of the Telangana Engineering, Agriculture & Medical Common Entrance Test (TS EAMCET) 2020 has been released on October 6.

Hailing from Hyderabad, Sai Teja Varanasi bagged the first position with an impressive score of 147.29 in the Engineering stream.

Kapelli Yashwanth Sai and Thammanaboina Mani Venkata Krishna from Andhra Pradesh secured the second and third spots respectively. 

After the result was released on October 6, 2020, instead of joining State institutes on the basis of their TS EAMCET 2020 score, most of the toppers prefer joining National Institutes as per their ranks in the Joint Entrance Examination 2020. 

As per the statements from the Toppers, they are really looking forward to joining eminent National Institutes like IITs, choosing specializations mainly from engineering streams.

With no exception in TS EAMCET 2020, this trend has been followed consistently in the near past years also.
