Zakir Hussain College of Engg & Technology Cut Off Details

Zakir Husain College of Engineering and Technology (ZHCET), Aligarh Muslim University, determines admissions through competitive entrance exams with cutoffs varying by branch, category, and exam mode, primarily AMUEEE for BTech/BArch and GATE for MTech. Cutoffs reflect candidate performance, seat availability (around 1,000 BTech seats across branches), and reservation policies (Muslim minority 50%, internal 20%, others), with trends showing slight yearly fluctuations based on exam difficulty.

Admission Criteria

  • BTech/BArch admissions require 10+2 with 50% in PCM (45% for reserved) and qualifying AMUEEE (150 marks, 2 hours) or JEE Main for select quotas.
  • MTech needs BTech with 60% and valid GATE score or AMU test; counseling follows merit lists on amucontrollerexams.com.
  • Internal AMU candidates (Class 12 from AMU schools) get 20% seats at relaxed cutoffs, while 50% internal quota prioritizes higher secondary toppers.

Previous Year Cutoffs (AMUEEE Marks out of 150)

2025 cutoffs remain unreleased as of January 2026, but expected ranges align closely with 2024 actuals, where Computer Engineering topped demand. Closing marks for Round 1 (General category) dipped 2-5 marks in later rounds due to vacancies.

MTech GATE Cutoffs (2025 Expected)

  • GATE scores (out of 1000) for General: CSE/IT 450-500, others 350-450.
  • AMU test cutoffs at 60-70% for non-GATE candidates.

Factors Influencing Cutoffs

  • Higher applicant numbers (20,000+ for AMUEEE) and topper performance elevate circuit branch cutoffs by 5-10 marks yearly.
  • COVID-era dips reversed post-2023; 2026 predictions suggest 2-3% rise if exam normalizes.
  • Monitor official PDFs post-results for exacts, as spot rounds fill leftovers at 10-20% lower marks.
