Kaniskar, You have not specified whether you want to inquire about your chances based on percentile secured in JEE MAIN PAPER-1 or JEE MAIN PAPER-2. So, I am going to answer your query taking into consideration that the query is about Paper2 and if your query was different, then you can let me know in the comments.

Now, to calculate your expected rank for B.Arch based on the percentile score that you have secured, you can use this formula:


So, (100 - your total percentile score) is the percentage of people ahead of you. Also, 112679 were the number of candidates who appeared for January exam.

Also,note that the ranks will change according to increase or decrease in the number of participants in the next session.


So rank formula is (100 - your total score) X 112679 /100.


Now, according to this formula, your expected rank is around 21341. Note that it is the expected All India Rank and not your category rank which is very difficult to predict at this point of time. As you may be knowing, the admission to any college also depends on your home state and category status. In your case, your chances of getting NIT TRICHY are very very small irrespective of your home state and gender as previous year closing rank for All India Quota for general category was 1075 and the closing rank for general category based on home state quota was 2468. So, going by previous years trends, your chances of making it to NIT THIRUCHIRAPALLI are very small.

However, you have a decent enough percentile and it could give you admission to some other private institiutes accepting JEE Scores and hence you should try for the same. Not only that, you have another attempt to go where you can redeem yourself and increase your chances of getting desired colleges.

Also, if you want to predict your colleges using your scores, you can use this college predictor

Hi dear,

You have scored 81.06 percentile in JEE main that means your rank should be around 164590. You can also calculate your rank as

Rank=(100-your percentile)×869010÷100

Your category rank should be around 40k. With this rank you have low chance to get NIT Trichy. You should reappear in april month exam and perform better.

Hope it helps.
