I got 88.2032167 Percentile in JEE main January attempt and my category is ST. Do I get a top NIT with Top Branch like CSE or ECE??? Do I qualify for JEE Advanced with this percentile? My Shift was 9 jan 1-shift.
Hi Malavath.
With 88.2032167 percentile in JEE Mains, you will definitely qualify for JEE Advanced because your category is ST. It isn't easy to tell for sure if you will be able to get CSE in NIT Trichy or Warangal or Suratkal. According to 2019 rank vs percentile, you can get an ST rank between 1000 to 1400.
With this rank, you can be sure about getting Biotechnology, Metallurgy and Chemical Engineering in these top NITs. If you are of Home State in any of the NIT, you have chances of getting a better branch too.

Hi Prashanth,
Yes you will surely get admission in top NITs but not in CSE you may get ECE for the Branch like CSE or IT you must have percentile approx 95.If you will score 95 percentile in the april session then you will surely get into top NITs or IIITs with top branches like CSE or IT.
