Hello Aspirant!!!

Hope you are doing well. I would suggest you to use Career360 College Predictor Tool to predict your college. You need to enter your overall percentile. Then select your home state, i.e. if you are an Maharashtrian then select  Maharashtra. Enter your caste. If you won't select, then it would be general by default. Select your gender and then you are good to go. Stay safe. Thank you.

The rank (CRL) from percentile is to be calculated by following formula:

rank (CRL) = (100-percentile)* Total no of student appeared in exam/100

As per the formula, your CRL rank is coming out to be 199872 approximately, where total no. of student appeared in the exam is 869010 .

If you belong to general category, the chances to get an NIT is very low. You need to score at least 96 percentile to get admission in an NIT.

However use JEE MAIN COLLEGE PREDICTOR to predict your college:

JEE Main 2026 Rank Predictor

Use the JEE Main 2026 Rank Predictor to estimate your expected rank based on your scores or percentile and plan your college options smartly.

Hey, aspirant

The percentile that you have obtained is not above the average so getting NIT colleges will not be possible if you are in General, or OBC category. And even if you are in SC/ST categories then also your chances are very low in NIT colleges. So you could try some private institutes exams like VITEEE, BITs etc. You can also try in state colleges exams.

And last but not least you could give another try in JEE Mains again this year.

All the best.
