Hello

As you are aware, today's competition is stiff. Only those students who scored higher than 98 percentile receive admission to NITs, and even those who scored higher than 90 % struggle to get into IIITs. However, you can attempt to get one of the seats allotted for reservation categories.

Don't lose heart; you still have one chance to get it right, and the best of the two scores will be used to determine the outcome.

Thanks

Hi aspirant...!

Hope you're doing great...!

So, with regard of you're query. For the percentile of 82. you'll be qualify for JEE advance examination. Because, in the pervious year's the cut off in OBC region was 68 in 2021 and 72 percentile in 2020. you'll be secure a rank around 1.1lakh-1.25 lakh in general category and In OBC category around 59k- 64K.

You can predict the NIT'S and IIIT's colleges from the link that I am providing you below:
