Hello,

Firstly congratulations for your result dear. Your rank is probably between 34k to 28k. After getting 75 percentile  in JEE Mains examination students can appear for NIT Colleges.

Your score is good so if you want to give the another attempt of JEE Mains examination 2021 you will do it definitely. May be you will score more good than this. If you go for JEE advanced you will be appearing for IIT.

In this marks you can get NIT college but which college it will be difficult for us. I'll suggest you some name below-

  1. NIT Jamsedhpur
  2. NIT Calicut
  3. NIT Surathkal

This aee top NITs colleges. I'll provide you a link below you can check it for more details about the NITs colleges.

Hello there,
You haven't mentioned your home state, and your category. Analysing the previous year data, for 96 percentile, your All India Rank will be 27000 to 34000 approximately. With this rank you have low chances of getting into the top NITs. Don't worry, you can try some medium to lower NITs, and also get many good private colleges with this percentile.

You can check the cut-off ranks of all the NITs from the link given below:

Also note that the cut-off rank changes every year depending on the difficulty of the paper, and the number of candidates appearing for it.

You can use our college predictor to predict the best college for you:
