Hello there,

With a 65.82 percentile in JEE Mains under the general category , your chances of getting admission into top-tier engineering colleges might be limited, but you may still have options for certain colleges, particularly in private institutions and some state-level colleges . Here's an overview of your potential options:

1. Private Engineering Colleges :

• Many private universities have their own admission criteria and might offer seats to students with a 65.82 percentile . Colleges such as:

  • VIT Vellore (through VITEEE exam)

  • Shiv Nadar University, Noida

  • UPES Dehradun

  • Manipal University (through MU OET)

  • SRM Institute of Science and Technology (through SRMJEE)
    
    

• These colleges might have separate entrance exams or allow admission based on JEE Mains percentile.
  
  2. State Engineering Colleges :

• Some state-level engineering colleges may offer admission to students with this percentile, especially through state entrance exams or management quota . You may want to explore options based on the state you are from .
  
  3. Other Admission Paths :

• Management Quota : Many private colleges reserve a few seats for management quota admissions, which you can explore, though they usually come with higher fees.
  
  

• Other Exams : You may also explore admission through state-level entrance exams (such as MHT-CET , WBJEE , COMEDK , etc.), where your percentile might hold a better chance of securing a seat.
  
  Conclusion:

While your 65.82 percentile may not guarantee admission to top NITs or IITs, there are definitely options for private universities and certain state colleges, especially if you take part in their entrance exams or apply under management quota. You may also want to look into further improving your rank or considering other pathways like private engineering institutes .
