How to choose from this list
Start with the exam you have written. The cutoffs on this list come from Karnataka PGCET for 213 colleges, KCET for 74 and JEE Main for 1. Next, look at cost. The lowest total cost we have is ₹1,200 and the highest is ₹2,40,000, but only 7 colleges have a total cost on record, so a missing figure does not mean a low fee. Treat NIRF rank as one signal, since only 17 colleges are ranked. Before you decide, check each college's approval and NAAC status, read its own fee notice and follow the counselling authority's notices before you pay or apply.
