Hi

This is a bit difficult to predict the rank / percentile required in JEE mains to get a seat in NIT as cut off rank 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 jee main examination , number of seats available for the branch you want etc.

But yes,
When we go through previous year trend then in JEE main 2019 for candidates of other states , the cutoff rank for general category for computer engineering to get a seat in NIT Patna was 13638.

You can check it at

Now,
All india rank of 13638 is around 135 marks i. e around 98.5 percentile

You can check the same at

So, to be on the safe side in JEE mains 2021 you should target at least around 150 marks to get computer science engineering NITs. For computer science Engineering in top NIT you should target 200 + marks

Now,
limited time is left for jee mains 2021 , so focus on your preparation, to prepare well your jee examination, go through chapters first and your focus should be on grasping concepts , practising questions and then revising them, go through mock test paper sample papers and previous year question papers as it will let you know your preparation level and and weak areas so that you can work on them and perform well in your examination.

If you have any other doubt then you can always reach us to clear them :) we are always available to help you out and guide you
