See both the institutes you have mentioned above are the elite institutes of India. So they both have some strategy to select students to keep up their elite status.

So both the exams have some level of difficulties.

In case of JAM to secure a rank under 50 , you have to study a lot and have to solve questions as fast as you can. Also you have to be intelligent enough in identifying the lengthy question given in the question paper to save time. So in JAM the problem solving skills as well as time management are checked in the examination.

Now in case of ISI exams problem solving skills along with theoretical knowledge are tested. In the question papers they include both subjective and objective question so you have not to worry about time management but about the accuracy. After their written examination they conduct interviews to recheck the explanatory ability in a student.

So both the exams have challenges in their own. But as ISI have interview then you will have to work hard regarding that too.

I hope my answer helps you. All the very best for your future endeavors!

Firstly congratulations for getting such good result.You have really scored very well. It shows your hard work and determination.

Now coming to your question which one should you prefer IIT or NIT? Well it depends solely on your personal interest ,if you are interested in computer science branch and you're getting a top NIT ,which you will definitely get on your rank,then I would suggest rather than going into an IIT with branch in which you are not interested will not be a good decision. considering your rank you can easily get NIT Trichy ,NIT surathkal N,Warangal even NIT Calicut which are among the top IITs.

If you are getting the branch of your  interest in a very good IIT, then definitely should choose it but if you have to compromise your choice then go with an NIT( southern NITs) .It depends finally on your interest and the college which you are getting.

I hope you will do great in your life.

All the best.
