Where this comes from
- OJEE cutoffs: OJEE's official opening and closing ranks for B.Tech 2025 (final round). Regular seats (no tuition-fee-waiver seats), General category, gender-neutral; Home State means Odisha domicile. A lower rank is harder to get. Ranks from 15 lakh up are Special OJEE ranks: students without a JEE Main rank who took OJEE's own test, given the seats left after JEE Main rank holders.
- JoSAA (IIT, NIT), MCC (NEET), CLAT, CAT (IIM shortlisting) and XAT (XIM shortlisting) cutoffs: published 2025 cutoff reports, not the official lists. Check them on the official counselling or admission websites.
- NIRF ranks: NIRF 2025.
- Colleges, types, courses and affiliations: each college's website and official lists such as OJEE, SAMS and university affiliation lists.
- Fees are approximate, from public 2025 reports. Always check with the college before you apply.
- Raaha's estimate: Raaha's team gives each college a score out of 5 for academics, placements, value for money, infrastructure, campus life, safety, hostel and food, and connectivity. As students write reviews, the score moves towards what they say.
