How a College Predictor Works

  1. 1Enter your score, percentile or rank from the entrance exam you appeared for.
  2. 2The tool compares it against previous years' closing cutoffs for each college and branch, adjusted for your category.
  3. 3Colleges are grouped by how likely admission is — from a very high chance down to borderline.
  4. 4Use the shortlist as a starting point for counselling and choice filling, then verify against the official cutoff list.

Predictions are estimates based on previous-year data. Closing ranks move each year with candidate numbers, paper difficulty and seat matrix changes, so treat the result as a shortlist rather than a confirmed admission.

College Predictor — Frequently Asked Questions

What is a college predictor?
A college predictor estimates which colleges you can realistically get admission to, based on your entrance exam score or rank and previous years' closing cutoffs. It compares your result against past cutoff data for each college and branch, then groups the outcomes by how likely admission is.
How accurate is a college predictor?
A predictor is an estimate, not a guarantee. It is based on previous years' closing ranks, which shift every year with the number of candidates, paper difficulty, seat matrix changes and reservation rules. Treat the results as a shortlist to research further, not as a confirmed admission.
Which college predictor should I use?
Use the predictor for the exam you appeared in. JEE Main opens NITs, IIITs and GFTIs; MHT-CET covers Maharashtra CAP colleges; KCET covers Karnataka; CUET covers central universities; CAT covers IIMs and B-schools; UPSEE covers AKTU colleges in Uttar Pradesh; MET covers the Manipal group.
Is this college predictor free?
Yes. Every predictor on Padhaao is free to use and needs no payment or subscription. Enter your score or rank and you get the college list immediately.
Can I predict colleges before results are declared?
Yes. If you know your raw marks you can estimate your percentile or rank first, then run the prediction. The JEE Main and MHT-CET tools both convert marks into an estimated percentile, so you can plan while waiting for official results.
