Hi

With 98.27  percentile

Your obc rank will be around 4000.

You have very good chances to qualify JEE main in order to be eligible for JEE advanced

For example,

In 2020, qualifying cutoff for general category was 72.8887969 and jee main 2021 expected qualifying cut off percentile is 70-75 percentile.

  • NIT Durgapur- electrical engineering

  • NIT Srinagar :- Computer Science and Engineering

  • NIT Jamshedpur :- electrical engineering

  • NIT Patna :- computer science engineering
