With 79 percentile in JEE Main (SC female category), you have a chance to get admission in lower-ranked NITs with branches like Civil, Metallurgical, or Biotechnology Engineering. Admission to top branches like CSE may be difficult. Your chances improve if applying under Home State Quota in certain NITs

Hello aspirant,

Students with this percentile are unlikely to get admitted to top IIITs or NITs. However, certain other prominent government colleges, such as SAGE University, Symbiosis University, GITAM University, and others, accept JEE Main scores in the 70–80 percentile, thus candidates don't need to lose hope.

Thank you
