plz tell us how many seats are vaccant in b-tech (lateral entry)

The Lateral Entry Scheme is to get admission in the second year of B.Tech course. It is only offered to candidates who have either compelted diploma in Engineering or the B.Sc course.

The aim of lateral entry scheme is to provide more options to the diploma and B.Sc students because the job scope in these fields are shrinking by each passing day of the year.

As per your question, unfortunately there is no fix number of how may seats are vaccant for the lateral entry scheme. This is because different universities have different quota for the lateral entry scheme.

One thing that you can be certain about is that almost every single Engineering college with the exception of IITs offer lateral entry to the diploma in Engineering or the B.Sc candidates. The colleges reserve some number of seats for the lateral entry. This number is different for each college, but it is generally between 10 to 20 percent of total seats available in the college.


How To Apply

The procedure of getting admission in Engineering college via lateral entry is different for each university. While some would give you admission directly on the basis on marks obtained in the diploma in Engineering or the B.Sc course, other colleges would ask you to appear in their own entrance exam.

Please note that for direct admission you would require at least 60 percent marks in the diploma or B.Sc. However some colleges would even give admission on 50 percent marks however such colleges are very few.

Another popular way to get admission in Engineering via lateral entry is LEET exam which is conducted separately in each state. LEET stands for Lateral Entry Engineering Test. The requirement to appear in LEET exam is:

1. You must have passed diploma in Engineering or B.Sc course.

2. Candidate must have scored at least 60 percent marks.

LEET stands for Lateral Entry Entrance Test and it is conducted by various state and private universities for admission in B.Tech/ B.E course through lateral entry.

So, it is not possible to give you the details of available number of seats for each stream and in each universities/colleges.
