NIT

This year the opening rank was 4500 and closing rank was around 10000 for B.Tech Civil Engineering in NIT Surathkal.
In 2016, opening rank was 4605 and closing rank around was 11151. Score should be more than 220.

If you are unable to crack JEE and do not get selected for IITs or NITs, it is not the end of your engineering career dream. In order to have good engineering degree, you may try for BITS, BIT, VIT University, Manipal University, Shiv Nadar University, Tapar University, DTU, NSIT, NIIT University, JIT University etc. by participating in their admission process. Few engineering colleges under UPTU such as JSS, AKG etc. are equally good. If you dream of doing B.Tech from IITs or NITs only, you may evaluate taking one year drop for engineering entrance examination preparations.

Hello Pratap!
The admission into NITs is based on your ranks in JEE main examination. As you belong To SC category, your category rank should be below 500, so that you can get a seat at the top NITs in CSE.
You have to score 150+, so that you can easily get a seat at the top NITs.
All the best.

Hello Akshay,
The admission into any of NITs is based on your AIR or category rank in JEE Mains exam.
So if you mention your rank then I may tell your possibilities.
The official website for the closing and opening ranks for NITs, IITs, IIITs and GFTIs is:

Yes, they do. Nowadays, chemical engineering is a modern trend and almost all the IITs and NITs offer it as a full-time course.

Hi,
Sorry to inform you, but admissions are not possible in IITs without securing a rank in JEE Advanced and JEE Mains for NITs respectively. JEE Mains and Advanced are excepted only in case for foreign nationals/NRIs which need to submit their SAT/GRE score for UG/PG course respectively. Hope this answers your questions.
Thank you.

You need to score more than 170 for getting into good NITs and must you have more than 75% marks in your class 12th for getting admission in NITs or IITs.
All the best.

Hello Ajay,
The cut-off marks vary from category to category every year. This time it was just 32 for SC but the last time it was higher. So, you need to aim of scoring more than 150+ to get a good NIT as per your caste.
All the best.
