hello aspirant,

As of now its tough to say if you can fetch a seat because the cutoffs change every year with college due to many factors like total students appearing for exam,difficulty level of paper etc .but based on previous year analysis we can help you with if you have chances or not.now based on https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-main-marks-vs-percentileyour rank would be around 35k-40k.based on last year cutoff of round 6 the closing rank for oc category male for home state(as per your profile)  for cse is 16406.and you would have tough chances with 96 percentile to fetch seat there.the closing rank for electrical engineering for round 6 last year was 29719.now based on these records you will be having tough chances to fetch seat with 96 percentile.you need to have atleast 97-98+percentile to fetch a seat in your desired college.for more info about cutoffs refer to: https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-main-cutoff-for-nit-durgapur

Hi

Your profile suggests that you are from West Bengal so you will be eligible for home state quota in NIT Durgapur

This is a bit difficult to make prediction but yes 96 percentile is roughly around 37000 rank ,for this rank vs marks vs percentile you can refer to our page for which link is provided below:-

https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-main-marks-vs-percentile/amp#referrer=https://www.google.com&csi=1


These above  rank / percentile are just estimated rank and percentile, the actual rank/ percentile will vary a bit as above prediction is on the basis of past year trends but rank /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

Also,

You can predict your rank using rank predictor at
