Hello there,
According to the previous year data, you need to score atleast 95 percentile to get a seat in the top NITs and IIITs in the country. For CSE branch, your percentile should be atleast 98 in your category to ensure your seat in the college. Your category rank must be within 5000 to get CSE in the top NITs and IIITs. Also note that the cut-off rank changes every year depending on the difficulty of the paper,and the number of candidates appearing for it.
You can use our college predictor to predict the best college for you:
