JEE

As per your JEE Main rank of 29541 in the SC category, you might have a chance of getting admission in some of the colleges that accept JEE Main scores for the CEOP (Common Engineering Option Process). However, admission to CEOP also depends on various factors such as the number of seats available, the number of applicants, the cutoff for the specific college and branch, and other factors. It is difficult to predict your chances of getting admission in CEOP based solely on your JEE Main rank, as the admission process also considers other factors such as your academic performance, category, and state of eligibility. Therefore, I would suggest that you check the cutoff rank for CEOP for the specific college and branch you are interested in, and compare it with your rank to get an idea of your chances of getting admission. Additionally, you may also consider other colleges that accept JEE Main scores and offer the branch of your choice. It is important to keep a backup plan and apply to multiple colleges to increase your chances of getting admission in a good college with the desired branch.

Congratulations to your son on securing 96 percentile in JEE Mains! However, NITs and many other engineering colleges have eligibility criteria that require candidates to have a minimum percentage of marks in their 12th standard board exams. Typically, candidates should have scored at least 75% marks in their 12th standard board exams or should be in the top 20 percentile of their respective boards to be eligible for admission in NITs. However, there is a relaxation of 5% marks for candidates belonging to SC/ST/PwD categories. Since your son has scored 72% marks in his 12th standard board exams, he may not be eligible for admission in NITs. However, he can still consider applying to other engineering colleges that offer admission based on JEE Mains scores and have a lower eligibility criterion for 12th standard board exams. There are many private engineering colleges and state universities that may offer admission to your son based on his JEE Mains percentile and 12th standard board exam marks. You can research and apply to such colleges and universities based on your son's preferences for location, college ranking, course options, and other factors. I would also suggest you to keep a backup plan and consider alternative career options in case your son is unable to secure admission in engineering colleges.
