a year agoHi, Admissions to engineering colleges in Tamil Nadu are based on marks obtained in 12th examination and not on ranking in JEE Mains. Of course IIT /NIT & GFTI located in Tamil Nadu give admissions based on JEE Mains ranking, but the counselling for these seats are not done by Anna University. These seats are clubbed with seats of other IIT / NIT etc. for counseling. Best wishes.
