Hello aspirant!
Yes, with a 70% score in boards, you are eligible for NIT admission because the minimum requirement is 75% for General and EWS, and only 65% for SC/ST/OBC. So you're good on that front.
Now, with a JEE Mains score of 200+, your percentile is likely above 99, and your OBC-NCL rank could be under 10,000, which is excellent. With this kind of rank, you have very good chances of getting into top NITs.
Depending on your exact rank and home state, you might get:
Core branches like CSE, ECE, Mechanical in mid-level NITs (like NIT Durgapur, NIT Patna, NIT Raipur)
B.Tech/B.Arch Admissions OPEN
Even CSE or top branches in some NITs but only if your rank is in the top 5,000 in OBC
In top NITs like Trichy, Surathkal, or Warangal, you might still get branches like Civil, Chemical, or Metallurgy
Make sure to fill your JoSAA choices smartly from top to bottom, and don't skip the CSAB special rounds.
You’re in a strong position, so aim high and stay confident. Best of luck! I wish you all the best!
