Hi


You have not mentioned the category you belong to so assuming that you belong to general category

Your profile suggests that your homestate is Andhrapradesh so you will be eligible for other state quota in NIT Goa

With  78.92 percentile

I am extremely sorry to tell you but with above predicted rank you have a low chance in NIT Goa

For example,

In 6th round of josaa counselling 2020, closing rank for gender-neutral for general category was 35494  rank    under other state in NIT Goa and it was for civil engineering

You can check the same at

https://josaa.nic.in/Result/Result/currentorcr.aspx

Above prediction 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

To have a personalised report on your chances of getting a college you can go through our college predictor, it will give you complete list of colleges which you can get on the basis of the category you belong to,  your home state, your gender etc, the link for  jee main college predictor is provided below

You need to get at least around 97 percentile to get a seat in NIT GOA . To improve your score in remaining sessions of JEE main you should focus on your preparation go through previous year question papers ,mock test papers and to help you in your preparation we have jee main knockout out for you, for which  is provided below

78.92 percentile would fetch you a rank around 215648-242420.As of now its tough to say because the analysis and also cutoffs change every year due to many factors like total students appearing for exam,difficulty level of paper etc,As you did not mention your category considering you from gen category and according to your profile you from andhra pradesh for which other state quota will be considered for counselling to nit goa,based on your rank you have tough to no chances to fetch seat in nits.The last year cutoff for nit goa for

civil engineering -35494
