Dear aspirant,

with 84% it is quite difficult to get selected in top NITs and for lower rank NITs chances to get branches like CSE, IT, ECE is quite low but for other branches such as civil, biotechnology, chemical, etc. the chances are quite high.

Its highly recommended to keep checking the cut-off list as for some NITs the closing rank for computer science branch is low. For NIT Goa the 2020 cut off for CSE department went till 56000. So keep the spirit high.

You should have mentioned your rank and home state too. Your OBC rank is approximately 40000 and with this rank it is quite difficult to get into government colleges. Go for private engineering colleges if you don't get any NIT.

Following are some of the best private engineering colleges in India.

  1. BITS Pilani
  2. VIT Vellore
  3. SRM University
  4. KIIT
  5. Thapar University
  6. Manipal Institute of Technology
  7. Lovely Professional University
  8. Chandigarh University
  9. RV College of Engineering
  10. BITS Mesra
  11. DA - IICT
  12. KJ Somaiya College of Engineering

However you have a chance to get a list of prescribed colleges against your rank. You just need to use JEE MAIN COLLEGE PREDICTOR. Click the link below, put necessary information and get result instantly.
