Candidates should consider filling a balanced preference list during CAP counselling. Students should also include realistic and safe options to maximize their chances of seat allotment, along with dream colleges. Branch flexibility can also improve admission prospects, especially in autonomous institutions where placement opportunities remain strong across multiple branches.
Moreover, students should actively participate in all CAP rounds and institute-level admissions, as cutoffs often relax in later rounds due to seat withdrawals and upgrades.
