If it NIT Trichy or any top 12 NITs you can go for it even if it is metallurgy as you will have a chance of getting a better branch like chemical through sliding. otherwise better go for local colleges CSE.

It depends on the board you are from ; anyways I feel you have a fair chance of getting into NIT'Ss if you don't bother about the branch. I mean you have a chance if you are okay with metallurgy and instrumentation kind of branches

Keerthi, it's on the basis of both. But then there are a particular no.of seats for a particular category.
These days, your JEE score can get you a seat in some of the best private universities. Some of these also offer scholarships on basis of your JEE scores as well as 12th marks.
Good luck.

You need to score above 300.

I am of the opinion that for doing undergraduate degree courses in Engineering NITs are a better choice in comparison to GGSIPU.

Yes, you can get admission inb an NIT. You can also get admission in IIIT and Gurukul too.

You cannot get admission due to the low marks in your HSC.
