Hi


With 88 percentile

Your ews rank will be around 16000.

I am extremely sorry to tell you but with above predicted rank you have a very low chance in any NIT for cse

Your homestate is Tamilnadu so you will be eligible for home state quota in NIT trichy,

B.Tech/B.Arch Admissions OPEN

Apply to Amrita University B.Tech 2026

But even under home state quota chances for cse is low

For example

In 6th round of josaa counselling 2020, closing rank for gender-neutral for ews category was  7770 ews rank under home state in NIT Trichy for cse

You can check it at

https://josaa.nic.in/Result/Result/currentorcr.aspx

But yes, you have chances in following branches which are listed below along with closing rank in 6th round counselling 2020 under home state quota in NIT trichy

  • Instrumentation and Control Engineering (4 Years, Bachelor of Technology:- 35039 ews rank

  • Mechanical Engineering (4 Years, Bachelor of Technology):-18752 ews rank

  • Production Engineering (4 Years, Bachelor of Technology):- 50657 ews rank

  • Civil Engineering (4 Years, Bachelor of Technology) :- 72019 ews rank


UNDER other state

Your chances are low for CSE even in lower NITs under other state.

For example,

In 6th round of josaa counselling 2020, 1828 ews rank for ews category for gender neutral  for other  state was the closing rank in NIT silchar which is one of the lower NITs for cse .

You can check the same at

https://josaa.nic.in/Result/Result/currentorcr.aspx

Above prediction is on the basis of past year data but  cut off/closing rank for colleges keeps changing every year depending upon many factors like number of students that appeared in the examination, difficulty level of the JEE main question paper for different shifts etc so
