Dear Aspirant,

For a general category student you might find it hard  to get into NITs however, if  you have chance in your home state NIT if your home state NIT is a lower NIT like Uttarakhand, etc.

You also have a strong chance in your home NITs if you have OBC or SC/ST reservation. However, you might not get top branch in case of OBC, and if your HS NIT is top or medium NIT like Jaipur or Allahabad.

To get a complete list of colleges you must use the predictor below;-
