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.

NIT Puducherry BTech admissions are highly unlikely with 75 percentile in JEE Main, especially for the General category. The institute sees a high cutoff for BTech's All India Quota. With 75 percentile, admission may be possible for reserved categories. Students can check the last year cutoff to know more.

JECRC Foundation offers seats to candidates via REAP Counselling based on JEE Main scores of the aspirants. The preference is given to candidates with JEE Main scores. Once the seat is allotted, aspirants need to report at the college campus for document verification and fee payment.

There is no decided cutoff for JEE Main for admission in HKBK College of Engineering. The BTech admission in HKBK is based on JEE merit and available seats. However, for candidates who get a decent percentile, there is a benefit in their favor.
