Dear Rajeev,

Apart from the various Merit Lists [i.e., the Common Merit List (CML), the category (SC, ST, OBC) and sub-category (PD) merit Lists, and Preparatory (for SC, ST, and PD) Merit Lists], JEE also prepares Extended Merit Lists (EML) under different categories, by making some relaxation in the aggregate cut-off. For JEE-2009, the lengths of the Extended Merit Lists are six times the lengths of the corresponding JEE Merit Lists.

The Candidates appearing in the EML are not eligible for admission into IITs, IT-BHU, and ISMU, and will not be called for counselling of JEE-2009.

The EML is provided to other institutions (see the Table below) for the purpose of admission in these institutions.These Institutions have about two thousand seats in total for various courses offered by them.

Candidates declared qualified in the EML, who are desirous of admission to these institutions, must apply to these institutions directly for admission. For all other details regarding the courses, application procedure, fees, etc., the candidates are advised to contact /visit the respective institutions/websites.

The list of institutions that will be using the EML of JEE-2009 is given below. The list may be updated time to time.

All the best !!
