Detailed analysis of JEE Main Phase 2 cutoff trends across Computer Science, AI-DS, and Electronics branches at top NITs and IIITs.

The National Testing Agency (NTA) has concluded JEE Main Phase 2 examinations. According to EduXTech's parametric data analysis, the cutoffs across premier engineering institutions are witnessing a slight upward shift due to higher candidate participation. ### Key Cutoff Takeaways for 2026 Admissions: - **Computer Science & Engineering (CSE)**: Demand remains exceptionally high. Top 5 NITs (Trichy, Surathkal, Warangal, Rourkela, Calicut) are projected to close CSE admissions within AIR 3,500. - **Artificial Intelligence & Data Science**: Emerging as a top alternative to core CSE, with cutoff ranks trailing CSE by only 300 to 500 ranks. - **Other State vs Home State Quota**: Candidates under Home State quota in tier-1 NITs can expect a 15-20% percentile advantage. ### How to Prepare for JoSAA Choice Filling: 1. Always order institution choices by long-term NIRF rank and EduXTech ROI Index rather than fee structure alone. 2. Compare hostel quality, placement statistics, and average package multipliers using the EduXTech Head-to-Head Comparison tool.
