At around the ninety-second percentile (rank ~ seventy to eighty thousand), NITs/IIITs for CSE are hard, but lower demand branches (Civil, Metallurgy, Production) at select GFTIs or newer NITs may open in later rounds, especially with home state/category leverage. Strong private options: IIIT Hyderabad excluded, but Thapar (via its own process), VIT (VITEEE), Manipal (MET), Amrita (AEEE), SRM (SRMJEEE); state colleges via COMEDK, MHT CET, WBJEE, REAP, etc. If flexible on branch/campus, lock a good institute brand first, then branch change/minor/specialisation later.

With this percentile/rank, top NITs/IIITs and most government Maharashtra colleges are unrealistic, but you still have meaningful options through SC category + institute level/management seats. Shortlist: Mumbai University–affiliated private colleges (e.g., Atharva, Vidyalankar, Shah & Anchor), Pune belt colleges (DY Patil Talegaon/AMB, PCCOER, JSPM group), Nagpur (KDK, Priyadarshini), Nashik/Aurangabad region institutes, and autonomous private universities that consider Class 12 + their own tests/counselling. Keep MHT CET counselling (CAP) Round 2/3, spot rounds, TFWS (if eligible), and diploma/B.Voc lateral ladders as safety nets.

With a rank of five Lacs seventy-eight thousand three hundred and six, admission to top-tier government engineering colleges in Karnataka through JEE Mains might be challenging. However, you can consider private institutes and deemed universities offering quality education. Options include New Horizon College of Engineering, REVA University, Presidency University, and Acharya Institute of Technology. Some colleges also offer direct admissions based on Class 12 marks or through management quotas. Additionally, state entrance exams like KCET or COMEDK may give better chances. It's advisable to apply early and keep multiple colleges as ba

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

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 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.

Okay, with a 48,597 EWS rank, the OG NITs might be out of reach for hotshot branches like CSE. But hey, you've got decent chances in newer NITs like Mizoram, Sikkim, Meghalaya, etc., especially in Civil, Chemical, or Metallurgy. Keep an eye on later rounds—cutoffs slide. Also, if you've got a home state quota, that could be your lucky ticket. Not glamorous, but it's a solid start!

With a 97.119 percentile in JEE Mains for the General category, you can expect to get admission into NITs like NIT Agartala, NIT Manipur, NIT Jalandhar, NIT Goa, NIT Nagaland, and NIT Warangal. You might also be able to get into some IIITs and other government-funded technical institutes (GFTIs). Specifically, at NIT Agartala, you could potentially get into Civil Engineering. The specific branch and college will depend on the specific cutoff trends for each institution and branch.

JEE Mains percentiles aren't based on a fixed marks-to-percentile conversion. Instead, they are normalized scores that depend on the relative performance of all candidates who appeared in your particular session and shift. The National Testing Agency (NTA) uses a formula that considers the number of students who scored equal to or less than you in that specific session. This ensures fairness across different shifts, as difficulty levels can vary.
