Engineering Entrance Exam

Yes, you can potentially get into some newer tier 3 and its or other government-funded Technical Institute with a JEE main rank of 135272 specialty under specific circumstances like reserve categories, home state quotas or less competitive branches.

With an OBC of 11777 in JEE main 2025 you might have a chance to get into an integrated M.Sc in Chemistry at some National Institute of Technology based on previous Trends especially if the cutoff for that specific course and your category remain similar to increase slightly

CRL vs. Category Rank—what's the deal? Use your CRL (Common Rank List) for most college predictors and open seat allotments. That's your main ticket. Your category rank (OBC/SC/ST) only kicks in when you're going for reserved seats. So unless something specifically asks for category rank, always drop in your CRL. It gives a better idea of where you actually stand in the full crowd.

Using a college predictor after JEE? Always plug in your CRL (Common Rank List) or All India Rank—that's the real MVP. Only throw in your category rank if the tool specifically asks for it. Also, select your category (OBC/SC/EWS etc.) so it adjusts cutoffs properly. Bottom line: CRL is your golden ticket unless told otherwise.

Yes, you can give JEE Mains with a 65% in your 12th board exams. While a minimum of 75% aggregate marks in Class 12 (or being in the top 20 percentile) is required for admission to NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs, there is no minimum percentage required to appear for the JEE Main exam itself

With a 93.88 percentile in JEE Mains, it's possible to get a free seat (convener quota) in CBIT for the ECE branch, but it depends on your category and whether you are applying through the All India quota or the state quota (TS EAMCET). While JEE Mains scores are considered for the All India quota, CBIT primarily uses TS EAMCET scores for admissions. 

With an EWS girl rank of 26,982, getting into the A-list NITs for CSE or ECE is kinda tough. But don't lose hope—newer NITs, some IIITs, and GFTIs could still be in play for lesser-hyped branches. Keep all options open during JoSAA rounds. And yeah, if you've got home-state advantage, that's a win. Be ready to hustle through the rounds and grab what you can.
