Hi

It's quite difficult to make prediction as marks vs percentile keeps changing every year depending upon various factors like

• number of students that appeared in the exam,

• kind of marks obtained by them ,

• toughness level of the examination for different shifts of the exam etc.

but yes , for 97 percentile you must target around at least around 145 marks

For example,

With 145 marks,

• your percentile will be around 97.13 - 98.53   percentile as per our predictor at

With this percentile you have chances in NITs like NIT Durgapur, NIT Patna etc
