Dear Aspirant,

As the category is not mentioned for a general category you might not be able to get into IIITs as the cutoff might not meet in your case, however, you have a decent chance in some state level colleges in the state counselling and some colleges in the GFTI category in Josaa counselling too.
Some colleges you can get are:
  • IET, Gopeshwar
  • SIT Pithoragarh
  • Gurukul Kangri Vishwavidyalaya Haridwar

If you want to know more about a specific category, then mention in the comment section below to know more about the category specific colleges.

To know all about the colleges you can get along with the branches based on your scores, use our college predictor tool:-

Hello aspirant.

For scoring 74 percentile in JEE mains 2020 under the open category it Avery tough to get a seat in government NIT, IIIT. But you can actually try your luck in your home NiT so that you may have a chance to get a seat under hope cota. Also, you can apply for state counseling so that you have a good chance to get a seat in your top local colleges in your desired branch.

You can use our JEE mains College Predictor 2020 which helps you in predicting colleges and branches based on your rank and category in both JoSAA and state counseling.

Hello,

As you have not stated your category and your state I'm gonna answer this on a General perspective

As per your rank you won't be eligible for any IITs, NITs or GFTIs but I'll recommend you to try for state level counseling like Odisha, Maharastra, MP etc. You'll be eligible for admission in private universities and colleges. To know more about your admission possibilities in various colleges please refer to the link below :-
