Hence, it might be argued that 2567-868=1699 OBC reserved seats have been trasnferred to general category; actually, upto 1489 of these seats might be transferred not to general category candidates but to other OBC candidates who prefer to give up their general merit list rank and use their OBC category rank in order to get a branch / institute they prefer. It is only 'upto' and it could be anything between 0 and 1489; past experience tells us that it will be close to 1489, so maybe 210, maybe somewhat more seats (including upto the maximum of 1699) may be transferred from OBC candidates to general candidates. This is in conformity with the recent 5 judge bench ruling of the supreme court in the civil services case (and unlike, say, medical admissions). With the existing cut offs, 13104 candidates have been ranked for 9509 seats, so there will be no further lowering of cut off for anyone. One might wonder what would happen if all 13104 want to join IITs - there simply are not enough seats. Past experience is that beyond rank 5000 or 6000 (when 'old' IIT seats are filled and only 'new' IIT or BHU-IT remain), lots of candidates prefer to give this up and go for NIT or some other institution. The rank list is counting on this to happen.iitmsriramhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16063826764366606345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9818962.post-43989432156837975742010-05-28T21:24:11.566+05:302010-05-28T21:24:11.566+05:30@shwetank..
buddy I was not presenting any case h...@shwetank..<br /><br />buddy I was not presenting any case here...May be your prejudice has led you to conclude on this assumption. I am not arguing that cut off being lowered further. I just pointed out what I thought was the right data i.e 1699 instead of 210 seats being transferred..Anyways peace<br /><br />@all<br />A question I would like to ask is..How are they going to fill the 1699 seats (i.e. if they dont remain vacant and actually get transferred to GC)? If they add more GC students then effectively the lowest GC score would again go down and therefore as per rules OBC cut off should be lowered further..Or is there any other mechanism to fill in the seats ?Prashob's bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14241703111410445374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9818962.post-87119686192640076332010-05-28T19:56:30.404+05:302010-05-28T19:56:30.404+05:30bro ur argument is valid but plz look at it this w...bro ur argument is valid but plz look at it this way... they cant keep decreasing the cutoff just to fill more left out seats... wat abt the merit or rather say just by getting into iit one cant become intelligent rather you need certain amount of intelligence to become a good engineer... so your argument about doesn't hold correct...shwetankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05776828809754216378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9818962.post-1989777306639413122010-05-27T13:50:10.777+05:302010-05-27T13:50:10.777+05:30"that number is 210 short of 2,567 seats (27%..."that number is 210 short of 2,567 seats (27% of 9,509 seats overall) reserved for them.
