What 78.1 Percentile Means

  • Approximate rank: ~2.2–2.5 Lacs out of ~12 Lacs candidates.

  • NITs/IIITs via JoSAA: Not possible for CSE at this percentile. Even newer NITs close above 92–95 percentile.

  • State Government Colleges: Admission possible in government/aided colleges through state counseling (like REAP in Rajasthan, Andhra Pradesh EAPCET, UPSEE, Maharashtra CAP).

  • Private Universities: Strong chance for CSE/IT admission, since many accept 70–80 percentile or even Class 12 marks.

With a 70 percentile in JEE Main (General category) and being from Andhra Pradesh (AP), here's a clear picture of your admission chances:


What 70 Percentile Means

  • Approximate rank: 3,00,000 – 4,50,000.
  • NITs/IIITs via JoSAA: Not possible, since even the lowest cutoffs for Civil/Mechanical in newer NITs close around 2–2.5 lakh.
  • Government colleges in AP: You can still get admission through AP EAPCET (state counseling), where JEE Main rank is also considered for some seats.

 Options in Andhra Pradesh

1. Government Colleges (via Andhra Pradesh EAPCET Counseling)

  • JNTU Kakinada, JNTU Anantapur, AU College of Engineering (Visakhapatnam).
  • At

  • JoSAA (NIT/IIIT/GFTI): ❌ Not possible.

  • State Govt Colleges (REAP Rajasthan): ✅ Possible, but mostly in Civil/Mechanical/Electrical.

  • Private Universities: ✅ Strong chance for CSE/IT/ECE.

 

👉 My advice:

  • Fill REAP AND OTHER STATES counseling for Rajasthan government colleges (you may get Civil/Mechanical/Electrical).

  • Apply to private universities in Jaipur (VGU, JECRC, Amity, Poornima) if you want CSE/IT.

  • Keep both routes open so you don't miss out.

If you don't meet the minimum academic criteria for MBA, you will not be selected for the WAT-PI round of any B-School. Meeting the minimum criteria of at least 50% marks in graduation (45% for reserved category candidates), is mandatory for admission.

No, candidates cannot get admission to a full-time MBA programme at a Tier 1 B-School with only the CAT score. They need to appear for and clear the WAT-PI round for admission too.
