Hi

I am assuming that you belong to general category

With 68 percentile/ nta score


Your profile suggest that your home state is West Bengal so you will be eligible for home state quota in NIT Durgapur

I am extremely sorry to tell you but with above predicted rank you have a very low chance in NIT Durgapur for any branch even under home state quota

For example,

In 6th round of josaa counselling 2020, closing rank for gender-neutral  for general category was 49673   rank    under home state in NIT Durgapur and it was for Bio Technology

You can check the same at

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

Even to get into lower NITs you should have got at least around 45000 - 50,000 rank i. e 95.5 - 96 percentile

Some of the engineering colleges in which you hold a good chance are listed below along with the link for their previous year cutoff :-

Talking about drop year, it is a good score. I will suggest you to go for JoSSA counselling and JEE Advanced. If results are not satisfactory in the counselling and JEE Advanced then you can think about drop year. But for now you have other chances left for this session.
