JEE

A percentile of 68 in JEE Mains 2024 is really a bad chance for getting into any NIT or IIT because the cutoff ranks for the best colleges are always far lower than 68. Nevertheless, you will have a decent chance for getting admission to some of the lowest-ranked NITs or one of the new IITs, based on branch preference and competition. One would be advised to look for some other engineering college with less admission criteria or again appear for the JEE Mains in the next session in case of improved rank. Opening and closing ranks keep an eye in counseling.

In order to change your surname to an initial after you complete your CBSE 12th, you would have to get your name rectified in the official documents before you participate in counseling in JoSAA. First, contact your respective CBSE regional office to request a name change for your Class 12 mark sheet.

If your category is OBC NCL (Other Backward Classes - Non-Creamy Layer) but the JEE Session 2 application shows "NA" for the category, it may be due to some problem with the details you have provided in your application or the categorization done at the time of registration. You should ensure that you have selected the correct category and provided the necessary documents supporting your OBC NCL status, such as an NCL certificate. If the problem is not rectified, one should contact the JEE authorities or the respective examination center for clarification and rectification so that the status of OBC NCL is correctly reflected.

If you do not have scores in JEE Main, still, you are eligible for counseling in MP for BE (Bachelor of Engineering) through MP Online portal for admission in engineering college in MP. Some colleges in MP accept admissions based on MHT-CET scores. If you have given MHT-CET, then you can also appear for counseling. In addition, the private institutions can give direct admissions or on some other grounds and, therefore, check the specific requirements of participating institutions and verify your eligibility on the official MP BE counseling portal.
