One of my cousins similarly wanted to secure a seat at IET Lucknow in the 2nd year itself. He mentions that for indeed taking admission in IET Lucknow in the 2nd year, you have to first complete your diploma, and following that, during the 3rd year, you are required to sit for the UPSEE LEET examination.

Depending on the basics of the score you attained in LEET, you can further go on to securing admission at IET Lucknow via lateral entry.

Here is a detailed outlook of the cut off followed by IET Lucknow both in the 2019 and 2020:

Other than that, you should also have a good CGPA, somewhat ranging from 9.0 to above, to obtain a seat otherwise.

Your rank is good and you may get CS and IT branches. But getting another branch will be difficult for you at this rank. But you can get admission with this rank in any other government college. The closing rank for the first round at IET Lucknow is 15000 for the general category and 16000 for the spot round. 

The cut-off for the CSE branch at IET Lucknow is as follows:

You can try the CSE branch at KNIT or MMM. You can try for other branches and after the first year, you can opt for a branch changing option.

The rank you secured is somewhat very close to the rank one of my cousins obtained, a few years back. His rank was 3,349 in UPSEE.

Based on my cousin’s experience, I will say, you can expect to be eligible for either Electronics and Instrumentation (EI) or Chemical Engineering if you belong to the general category.

Here is the latest cutoff trend for the institute.

Hope this clears your doubts.

ET Lucknow is an autonomous constituent college of Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam Technical University (AKTU). It is considered one of the tier 3 engineering colleges in the state and most of the students from the institute pass out with an average salary of INR 3 – 4 lakhs per annum to work as clerks in service-based companies which cannot be termed great in any sense.

Electrical Engineering as a discipline is also very dead and there will be very few core companies who will offer jobs.

The skills demanded by the industry are not being supplied by the students and thus placements are lower. If the colleges start implementing changes and upskill their students the situation will definitely improve. But as it stands today, the placements are grim.

With this rank, it is difficult to get admission for the general and OBC category, you can choose other colleges. You should also fill applications for all types of branches so that the options are high. 

Check the following table to get an idea of the cut off range at IET Lucknow:

Do not lose patience while selecting any college and any branch.

I have a friend pursuing engineering in IET Lucknow, here are some tips for you.

There is almost no chance to get a seat in IET Lucknow according to your rank. If you will be lucky then you can get a seat. You can change branches after completing the first year.

You will require a good SGPA in both of your semester exams and should be getting under the top 10 then only you will get into the CS branch.

Admission to IET Lucknow can be done through the UPSEE exam. If you belong to the general category then you should definitely put some effort into it. 

With a rank of 7900 and armed forces rank of 229 while belonging to the general category can be difficult for admission. There is no chance that you will be picked in the first few rounds and get the best branches. Your rank might be called by the 4th or the 5th round if there are still seats available.

The detailed analysis for 4th round counseling with the rank and specific branches are as follows: -

Around the rank 7000, the 5th round of counseling begins and by then all of these above-mentioned branches are already filled or have very few vacancies. 

New core branches such as Electrical and Instrumentation Engineering are introduced and candidates with a rank near about 7000 are admitted into it. 

The above-mentioned analysis is for general category students only and it huge varies for any other category
