Hello student,
Having an NTA score of 80.82 means that your percentile is 80.82, since NTA score and percentile are the same thing.
If you’ve scored 80.82 percentile, then it will be difficult to get into JoSAA Counselling colleges. I suggest that you give the second attempt and prepare well for that so that you’re able to improve your score. However, if you wish then you can also check out some state counselling and university counsellings where you could be eligible to take admission based on your category and percentile. You could also target the specific state you’re interested in. For example if you’re looking for colleges in West Bengal, then you could apply for WBJEE, which is the state level entrance exam for admissions into engineering colleges in West Bengal.
