Satya, Firstly, let us predict your expected rank for this secured percentile. Now, It is difficult to predict the exact ranks currently as the April Jee session has yet to take place. However, you can predict your expected rank by this formula:-


(100 - your total score) X 869010 /100.

If, however, the number of candidates for April exam get increased to another number, say, 1200000 then your final rank shall be (100 - your total score) X 1200000/100


In your case the expected ALL INDIA RANK rank comes out to be around 112971. Honestly, getting any good branch at any of the NITs would be extremely difficult for a general category student irrespective of the home state considerations. However, if you still wish for an NIT, then you have a slight chance in Northeastern NITs like NIT SIKKIM, NIT MIZORAM, NIT MANIPUR etc and maybe also in NIT PUDUCHERRY.

Also, you have a good percentile and you may get some good state level colleges, so you should opt for the State- level counselling process as well and can also try for various other private institutes. In addition to this, there is a decent chance that you would qualify for JEE ADVANCED based on these scores, so you would likely have a chance to aim for the IITs too.

Also, you do have another attempt to go in the APRIL JEE MAINS Session, so concentrate on that too boost your chances of getting the desired college and your desired branches.


Also, you can use this college predictor to know what colleges you would get based on these January scores
