On going through the list of candidates offered prep seats in ismu, it is surprising to see that while there are quite a no. of seats in old iits for sc category, top 50 ranked sc canidates are given seats in ismu!! Does it mean these candidates prefer ismu than old iits. It appears that there are some discrepancy in the allotment of seats this year. On the other hand bottom most st candidates are given seats at ismu. Preparatory course counselling doesn't matter much. Your views please.

the iits are not transparent enough to show list of preparatory course students as is  done in the case of ismu and iit patna. can they also not display list of students in their respective websites to know the exact situation. as of now as one friend rightly pointed out, the sc students prefer ismu due to availability of more seats for sc category, but in the case of st only ranks of 200+ are offered.
