All you need to know about TS EAMCET and top colleges of Hyderabad.
Engineering, Agriculture or Medical? Which would you choose? Make a choice of the stream but apply for just one exam- TS EAMCET. Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University takes the responsibility to conduct the exam on behalf of Telangana State Council of Higher Education (TSCHE).
Candidates from Hyderabad who aim at the top colleges in their state have found their stepping stone towards their dream- TS EAMCET. TS EAMCET Hall ticket is your entry pass for the exam after your registration! Contrary to the board exams, boys outshine the girls in TS EAMCET and acquire positions in the top 10 rank holders of the exam for the engineering exams.
Coaching experts explain the reason of stack difference in the performance of the candidates at topper level as the difference in their perspectives about the competitive exam. The approach towards the exam of these two genders vary, which affects their performance.
TS EAMCET has objective type questions to test the conceptual knowledge of the candidates. Great understanding of the concept instead of cramming them can help you crack the exam. However, apart from engineering TS EAMCET offers admission to pharmacy, agriculture and medical courses. While no girl topped the engineering stream, three girls managed to place in the top 10 in the agricultural and pharmacy.

Top Colleges accepting TS EAMCET Scores
A good college is an all-time consideration for all the students who appear for the exam. Every topper cannot get an admission in an IIT or NIT or Government college. This exam is largely taken by the students interested in engineering courses after 12th grade. The exam is generally conducted in the month of May. In 2007, around 185,000 students took the engineering stream exam and around 90,000 students wrote the medical & agricultural test. From the year 2009, 25% of the weightage is being given to the core subjects of the 12th-grade board exams. The rank is calculated based on 75% EAMCET marks and 25% boards result.Here are top 10 colleges in Hyderabad accepting TS EAMCET Scores:
Name of the College | Name of College |
Hyderabad Institute of Technology and Management | Jawaharlal Nehru Technological Institute |
CMR College of Engineering and Technology | GokarajuRangaraju Institute of Engineering and Technology |
Chaitanya Bharati Institute of Technology | Sreenidhi Institute of Science and Technology |
Malla Reddy College of Engineering and Technology | VignanaBharathi Institute of Technology |
Mahatma Gandhi Institute of Technology (MGIT) | Annamacharya Institute of Technology and Sciences |
What Students and Experts Have to Say?
While the renown colleges in Hyderabad aim at quality students for admission to the engineering programmes, the students aim at seeking admission to the IITs. Toppers have also set their eyes on the IITs and have decided to miss the TS EAMCET Counselling.Throwing light on this trend, educational experts said it's the same story every year as meritorious students tend to write the state entrance test just for practice. "Out of the top 500 ranks, almost 90% of the students will not opt for TS EAMCET counselling as they are quite sure they will bag an IIT seat. I think the trend is more or less the same every year," said VVL Sekhar, executive dean, Narayana Junior College.
TS EAMCET topper G JayanthHarsha mentions, “I studied 14 hours a day and appeared for six entrance exams in various states and institutes. But my aim is to secure admission in IIT Bombay and pursue a career in computer science. I will let go of my TS EAMCET seat if I get a good rank in the JEE Advanced”
If candidates go ahead with the admission without waiting for the IIT and NIT ones, nearly 100 seats in top colleges like OU College of Engineering and JNTU-H College of Engineering may go vacant.
Last year, 40 seats went vacant in JNTU-H while OUCE saw 30 seats going waste as they could not be filled by the colleges themselves. Instead of going for a third phase, the administration preferred to leave the seats vacant fearing the laborious process that would have disturbed the entire schedule. This year, in the first phase of seat allotment, all the 3,060 engineering seats in 14 university colleges have been filled.
The Telangana State Council of Higher Education (TSCHE) Chairman, T. Papi Reddy, said keeping this trend in view, the second phase schedule was prepared. He said students leave if they get a seat in IIT or NIT in the seven-phase admission process. “However, we will wait for the Supreme Court’s decision on Monday and take a final view of our schedule,” he said.
Generally, the top private colleges whose students also leave midway for IITs and NITs adjust their seats through spot admission or through the applicants of the management quota. Such facility cannot be extended in the government colleges as the convenor is responsible for admission in them while there is no management quota either for filling the seats.
