Hi

I am considering that you belong to general category

With 54.17 percentile,

  • Your rank will be around 468841 - 527045   as pet our rank Predictor at

With this rank you have no chance  in any NIT

I am extremely sorry to tell you dear but with 54 .17 percentile you hold very low chance to be eligible for JEE advanced if you are from general category

For reference,

JEE mains 2021 expected qualifying  CUT OFF percentile to be eligible for JEE advanced is given below for different categories on the basis of past year trends :

.                  .  JEE      MAIN CUT   OFF    PERCENTILE

Category jeemain2020 jeemain2021 expected off

So, I would suggest you focus on your preparation for remaining sessions of jee main so that you can improve your score   ,  go through chapters , practise questions and then revise 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.To help you in your application you can use our jee main knockout for which link is provided below

hanandnaik9900 You hold chance to qualify JEE main to be eligible for JEE advanced but your chances for getting an NIT is very low.
Your sc rank will be around 38,000 with 54.17 percentile

With this rank you have very low chance  in any NIT

For example,

Your profile suggest that you are from Maharashtra so you will be eligible for home state quota in NIT Nagpur


In 6th round of josaa counselling 2020, the closing rank for SC category in NIT Nagpur was 6779 sc rank and it was for mining engineering
