Hello aspirant,

You might not get admission into prestigious NITs like Trichy if your JEE Mains score is around 79 percentile, but other NITs, including NIT Agartala, NIT Meghalaya, NIT Raipur, NIT Jalandhar, NIT Durgapur, NIT Goa, NIT Puducherry, etc., do admit applicants with this score.

Thank you

Hello there,

With 91.5 percentile in EWS category from Rajasthan, you have a low chance for top NITs or IIITs in core branches. However, you may get:

• Newer NITs (like NIT Mizoram, NIT Nagaland) in branches like Civil, Metallurgy, etc.
  
  
• Some IIITs in lower-demand branches.
• IIIT Delhi is tough as its cut-off is high.

Your chances improve if you have a home state quota in any NIT. Check JoSAA cut-offs for a better idea.

Hello Sachin,

Your TC mentioning "General" may cause issues during NEET counselling if the authorities strictly verify documents. Since you belong to OBC in Uttar Pradesh, you can still claim the OBC quota if you provide a valid OBC certificate issued by UP authorities. Ensure your caste certificate is in the central OBC list and matches the details in your NEET application. If needed, get the TC corrected or provide additional supporting documents during counselling.

Hello Kajal,

With 81 percentile in JEE Mains under the SC category, you have a good chance of getting a government seat (free seat) in NITs, IIITs, or GFTIs through JoSAA counselling. You may get branches like Civil, Mechanical, Metallurgy, or Chemical Engineering in lower-ranked NITs or better branches in newer NITs and IIITs.

For state quota seats, check your home state NIT cutoff as the chances improve with the home state reservation.

Hello there,

No, you cannot change your category from General to OBC for the second JEE Mains attempt. NTA allows category changes only during the correction window of the first attempt. Since you already submitted the first form as General, your category will remain the same for both attempts. However, you can use your OBC certificate during JoSAA counseling for reservation benefits.

Hello Raghav,

Yes, you can change your category from General to General-EWS in JEE Mains Session 2 while filling out the form, provided you have a valid EWS certificate issued before the deadline specified by NTA. Make sure to upload the correct document during registration.

Hello Riya,

With 85 percentile in JEE Mains and EWS category, your expected rank would be around 1.5–1.8 lakh. Admission to SVNIT Surat (NIT Surat) is difficult for core branches like CSE, ECE, EE, and ME, even under the home state quota. However, you may have a slight chance for lower branches like Civil or Chemical Engineering in later rounds.

Check JoSAA counseling cutoffs for exact details and keep backup options in other GFTIs or state engineering colleges.

Hello

Your JEE Main 2025 percentile is 87.88% in the ST category  and you are aiming for a CS branch in an NIT .

Based on previous year trends , your chances of getting CSE in top NITs are slim but you might get a lower-ranked NIT or a different branch in a better NIT.

Hope this gives you the clarity you need.
