Dear aspirant,

If you have secured a score of 11500 as an ST category candidate then congratulations for your rank and efforts. With this rank you have a pretty good chance of getting into NITs, IIITs and GFTIs , especially in the less competitive branches like civil, chemical, metallurgy etc. You might even get core branches like Mechanical Or Electrical in newer NITs. But it might be a bit tough to get a seat if you're aiming for top NITs or top branches like CSE or ECE. For more information you can check this link.
