Am shloka am qualified jee mains. 65percentile my catageory ST which nit get my admission, catageory rank 11115
With a 65 percentile in JEE Mains and an ST category rank of 11115 , getting admission into a top NIT would be challenging, as the closing ranks for popular branches (like CSE, ECE, etc.) are much lower. However, you may still have chances for admission in less competitive NITs or for less preferred branches .
Possible options:
-
NITs with lower closing ranks : You may have a chance in NITs like NIT Mizoram, NIT Nagaland, or NIT Puducherry .
-
Less preferred branches : Consider branches with lower demand like Mining Engineering , Metallurgical Engineering , etc.
State Quota : Some states may offer additional seats for ST candidates under state-level counselling.
Make sure to participate in all rounds of JoSAA counselling to maximize your chances.
With a 65 percentile in JEE Main and a category (ST) rank of 11115 , your chances of getting admission into a top NIT are very limited, as ST category closing ranks for core branches (like CSE, ECE, ME) in popular NITs are usually much lower — often under 3000–5000 depending on the branch and institute.
However, you may still have some chances in less competitive NITs or for less preferred branches (like Mining, Metallurgy, or lower-demand engineering streams) through the JoSAA counselling process.
Your Options:
-
Try for Lower-Ranked NITs like:
-
NIT Mizoram
-
NIT Nagaland
-
NIT Arunachal Pradesh
-
NIT Puducherry (Home state quota applies if relevant)
-
-
Also Consider :
-
IIITs or GFTIs (though seats are more limited for ST)
-
State-level counselling (if your state has ST quota seats)
-
Private colleges accepting JEE score with ST scholarships
-
-
Participate in All Rounds of JoSAA Counselling : Fill maximum choices to improve your odds.
