hi alok,

I hope you are doing well. Regarding 81 percentile, it will not fetch you a good rank. Your rank will be more than 2 lakh. Last year JEE Mains cutoff for general candidate was 89 percentile. This year also it will be around 89 percentile and will not change drastically. So as you are not even clearing the cutoff so its impossible for you to get a good college with this percentile. So now what you have to is: Prepare well for the upcoming JEE Mains because almost all tier-1 college accept candidates on the basis of JEE Mains. Also prepare for some state level exams as a backup option.


I hope this answer will help.
All the best for the future!!

Hello dear
As near about 9-10 lakhs students gave jee exam of January and when you calculate your rank it will be approximately come out to be more than 2lakhs .
And with rank is not up to the mark so that you can get a decent college like NIT OR good IIIT .
You may get admission in private colleges or some state College . I would suggest you to work hard for the next chance because you have enough time for the preparation because of lockdown. So good luck
