Hello,

Sorry, but it's unlikely you will get into NIT Rourkela Computer Science with a 99 percentile and OBC-NCL status under the Home State quota, as the closing rank of this category is very competitive and often falls within the top 8,000 ranks.

I hope it will clear your query!!

Hello,

Your impressive performance on the JEE Main, scoring in the 99th percentile, combined with your background from Odisha and OBC-NCL status, certainly boosts your prospects for NIT Rourkela. However, getting into the Computer Science (CSE) program is known to be quite competitive. Typically, the cutoff for OBC-NCL candidates using the home-state quota falls somewhere between the 99.3rd and 99.5th percentiles. So, while nothing is guaranteed, there's still a chance you could get into CSE, maybe through later rounds of admission or internal adjustments. This all depends on how many seats are open and how the cutoff scores change each year.

I hope you find this helpful!!!

Thank you

Hi,

You have a good chance of getting admission into NIT Rourkela with a score of 99 percentile in JEE Mains, though there is high competition in CS. Generally, the cutoff for OBC-NCL goes to 98.8-99.5%. But you can get into ECE, Electrical or Mechanical at NIT Rourkela with 99%.

Hope it helps!!!

Hello,

With 99 percentiles in JEE Main and OBC-NCL category under Odisha home state quota, your chances for CS at NIT Rourkela are quite low CS cutoff usually stays around 99.6–99.8 percentile for OBC candidates.

However, you may get other good branches like EEE, Mechanical, or Civil in NIT Rourkela, or CS in lower-ranked NITs. Try to aim for 99.7+ percentile for CS there.

Hope you understand.
