hello Bhargav dont be upset as you have got a fairly good score in the jee paper 2 i.e 210 marks.The marks may not be super good to get an IIT but a lower ranked NIT is definetly possible .Apart from this your other marks in 12th , category you fall in will also contribute to wheter you may get admission in a NIT or not. 

Dear Aspirant, at this percentile your AIR might be in the range of 538966-638966. Sorry to say but at this percentile, it is impossible to be eligible for NITS. You should prepare for college-specific exams like BITSAT,  SRMJEE,  etc.

Hi Balamurugan,

As you mentioned your JEE Mains 2019 score 81.755 so you are qualified JEE Mains exam admission as per previous year cutoff for JEE Mains. The previous year cutoff for JEE Mains as follows:

Category      Min Score

General            74

OBC                 45

SC                    29

ST                     24

PWD                -35

Also you have good score in 12th board exam so you are eligible for JEE Mains exam admission. The minimum marks required for JEE Mains exam for board is 75% marks for general category and 65% for ST & SC category respectively.

Hope you get this !!

As you didn't shared your category I assume you to be a general category student without any quota. With this percentile you would have a rank around 165k - 185k and with this rank you could nit get admission into NITs or IIITs into any branch and there are also very low chances of getting into any good private colleges. You might get option of some average private colleges.
I would suggest you to rather look or any other college there are many private universities that are too good and that doesn't demand jee score card you can simply get into them by giving their entrance exam else you can also drop a year and again give exam next year if you think you can do better next time.
Thank you.
Hope it helps.

It is not about the percentile. The rank matters here. Mostly 5000-15000 ranked people in JEE mains end up with NIT's. As you have mentioned your category it may help you al little.If you qualify in JEE Advance you will have an option to get a seat in top ranked NIT. But as of now there is 60% of chance to get into for NIT. All the Best!!

Dear Garvit

Garvit as you know well that till now the category wise cuttoff has not been declared by the NTA authorities so faar which is going to be declare till 30th of April. But as faar study has been concerned by the team of experts candidate's those who are having the score range of more than 95 percentile will have the better chances for getting into the NIT premises which might get vary after the declaration of the final cuttoff. So wait till the final results will be declared.

All the best

Hello Sasianandh,

Definitely your percentage in 10th and 12th standard matters a lot in your selection to elite colleges like IITs or NITs. But you also need to clear their cutoff in JEE. You need to score a high percentile.

Apart from that, OBC candidates need to have 75% in 12th boards to be eligible for IITs. 

Hi Draksha !

As per Careers360 Rank Predictor your probable rank will be around in between 120398-140398 and category rank 36544-40544. But the actual rank may vary a little. I am providing you the link for the previous years cutoff :-
