Engineering Entrance Exam

First of all, I want to suggest you that please make sure before preparing for JEE Mains that you really want to do engineering, ask yourself whether it really interest you or you are doing, because everyone is saying to do so.
Yes, if you really want to do engineering, then I suggest you to immediately take admission in any coaching classes.
Or, you can also do one thing, just do your class 11th and class 12th thoroughly, and give IPU CET. If you will score well, then you can get a good college to be in.
If you have done your class 11th and class 12th thoroughly, then it is easy to crack IPU CET with good rank.

Yes, in all NITs, national level institutes or central funded institutes admissions are done on the basis of JEE mains merit ranking.

You should go for counselling and based on your rank, you will get the colleges. You could then lock the college of your choice. And also, the branch in which you are looking for.

Hello Dear,
You are not supposed to report any centre if you aren't allocated a seat in any college in the first round of counseling. Do wait for the 2nd round.

Based on your JEE Mains score, you should go for counselling first. In the counselling, look for the colleges that you get. If you don't get it through counselling, you may contact the college directly for direct admission through management quota.

The closing rank for most NITs this year is around 12860. Closing rank differs from branch to branch and from one college to another. Every branch has a different opening and closing rank.
