You got 79.75 percentile in JEE Main and you belong to the OBC-NCL category. Whether you can get a seat in NIT Silchar depends on your home state and the branch you are aiming for.

If you are from Assam, you may have a chance in some branches like ECE, Electrical, Mechanical, or Civil. Getting Computer Science is difficult unless your rank is much lower.

If you are from another state, getting a seat in NIT Silchar will be more difficult, especially in top branches like CSE and ECE, because the closing ranks are much lower for other state candidates.

For example, in recent years:

For other state OBC candidates, CSE closed around 3900 rank, and ECE closed around 5800 rank.

For home state OBC candidates, CSE closed around 13,500 and ECE around 22,000.

So if you belong to Assam (home state), you have better chances in branches other than CSE. If not, then chances are low unless your actual JEE Main rank is below 8000.

Please check your category rank in the official JEE Main scorecard. That will help better during JoSAA counselling.

It is considered to be a good score to secure admission to NIT Silchar , especially for General category students, but it not guaranteed. The 96 percentile is considered strong for mid-tier NITs.

Hello there,

With 79.75 percentile (OBC-NCL) in JEE Mains, getting NIT Silchar is difficult for most branches under the Other State quota. However, if you are from Assam (Home State) , you may have a chance in lower-demand branches like Mechanical or Civil Engineering , especially in CSAB special rounds . Admission to top branches like CSE is unlikely.

Hello aspirant,

Both NITs have excellent placement rates; about 90% of students were placed in both institutions. However, NIT Silchar has superior facilities compared to NIT Patna. Overall in my opinion, NIT Silchar is beeter than NIT Patna and it is also established earlier than NIT Patna.

Thank you
