Hello Aryan,

See with a percentage of 45 in class 12 it is impossible to get to IIT and NIT as a minimum of 60% is mandatory.

Thus u can apply for a few colleges where 12 th marks aren't considered.

Thanking you

Hello Aryan!


Look if you only want admission in engineering college then even this much effort is not needed. You can just pass your 12th, appear in JEE MAINS and you are done. There are plenty of engineering colleges who offer admission in less marks specially in Odisha, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. 

But getting admission in IITs/NITs/GFTIs is quite different. The approach you are trying to apply must be upgraded. You must go balanced with Boards and JEE mains and devote equal time in both of them.

If you want admission in GFTIs then 60% in 12th and just clearing the cutoff is the requirement. You don't have to score high. But ultimately you can't get that enjoyment which an IIT/NIT offers.

Please recheck your approach and study stress-free. 

Hope that helps

Hello Mr JoshiSee a minimum of 60% of marks in 12th class is required for any government college.Now you can get admission in a few private college but that chance is also slim.Thanks
