With a JEE Main score of 70 marks, your expected percentile would be in the range of 87 to 92. For the EWS category under the home state quota for Uttar Pradesh, securing a Computer Science (CS) branch at Kamla Nehru Institute of Technology (KNIT) Sultanpur might be possible but is subject to the cutoff trends of 2025.

Looking at the previous year's data can provide some insight. In 2024, for the EWS category (Home State) at KNIT Sultanpur, the closing ranks for Computer Science Engineering in different rounds were: Round 1 at 58140, Round 2 at 62629, Round 3 at 64891, and Round 4 at 65704. These ranks are generally based on the Common Rank List (CRL) and not category-specific ranks. Your percentile range of 87-92 could translate to a rank that falls within or around these closing ranks, especially with the benefit of the EWS reservation and the home state quota.

However, it's important to understand that cutoff ranks can vary each year depending on the number of applicants, the difficulty level of the exam, and the specific preferences of the candidates. A score of 70 marks typically corresponds to a rank in the range of 1,00,000 to 1,50,000. Given the 2024 closing ranks for EWS (Home State) in CS at KNIT Sultanpur, which were within this approximate rank range, there is a reasonable chance for you to get a seat.

To maximize your chances, you should actively participate in the Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) counselling. During the choice filling process, prioritize KNIT Sultanpur with the CS branch, along with other preferred colleges and branches. Since you have the home state quota for Uttar Pradesh, this will be advantageous for admissions in state government colleges like KNIT Sultanpur. Keep an eye on the official JoSAA and UPTAC (Uttar Pradesh Technical Admission Counselling) websites for the most up-to-date information on counselling schedules and cutoff ranks as they are released.
