At 97.9 percentile in JEE Mains, for a general category female, getting ICT Mumbai (Institute of Chemical Technology, Mumbai) is very difficult for the main branches like Chemical Engineering or Pharmaceuticals.
Here's why:
- ICT Mumbai mainly takes students through MHT-CET (Maharashtra state exam), not JEE Mains for most of its B.Tech seats.
- Only a very few seats (around 30-40) in Chemical Engineering are filled through JEE Mains, and the closing ranks are usually under 15,000 CRL (Common Rank List).
- At 97.9 percentile, your approximate CRL would be around 22,000–25,000 (rough estimate).
Summary:
- General category + JEE Mains admission + 97.9 percentile → chances for ICT Mumbai are very low.
- You might get ICT's newer courses or B.Chem Engg at Marathwada campus (Jalna) if open.
