Hi

Your profile suggests that your home state is Telangana

With 86 percentile

Your sc rank will be around 8,000.

With above rank, you have  chances in NITs but for lower branches etc and in IIITs yes you have chances in Computer Science and ECE . For example,  you have chances in following NITs ,IIITs which are listed below along with their closing rank in 2020 in 6th round of josaa counselling

  • NIT Mizoram ,civil engineering :- 8376 sc rank

  • Nit nagaland :- Electronics and Instrumentation EEngineering :- 8641 sc rank

  • Indian Institute of Information Technology (IIIT) Ranchi:- 9565 sc rank

  • Indian Institute of Information Technology (IIIT) Pune :-9117 sc rank

And a few more

For previous year cut offs of top colleges like NITs, IIITs, GFTIs , you can refer our page at :-

NITs :- https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/nits-cutoff-for-top-btech-branches

IIITs:- https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-main-cutoff-for-top-iiits

GFTIs :- https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-main-cutoff-for-top-gftis

Or alternately you can visit official website of josaa at

Above prediction of colleges is on the basis of past year data but  cut off/closing rank for colleges keeps changing every year depending upon many factors like number of students that appeared in the examination, difficulty level of the JEE main question paper for different shifts etc so
