Hello Aspirant,

It is quite difficult to predict the exact rank/percentile as the trends changes every year because it depends on many factors like number of students appeared, shift, toughness, etc.

But we can predict your result based on the previous trends. With 44 marks your percentile will be around 71.98 - 75.5 . Considering the worst case. With 71.98 percentile your CRL-AIR will be around 286645 - 322230 and SC rank will be around 19k. You can verify your rank by using our rank predictor tool which is given below:

In order to get a seat in NITs, you need to score at least 9k - 10k SC rank, or 85 percentile as per past year trends.

Thus, with 71.98 percentile, chances are low for NITs.
