Hello Aspirant,

As per your percentile your rank in CRL would be near about 1.21 Lakhs. On the basis of this rank it is quite difficult to get admission in top NITs even with your reservation category. From this percentile and category you can get low tier NITs like NIT Silchar, NIT Agartala and likewise.

I would suggest you to prepare yourself for second attempt of JEE-Main or go for JEE-Advance because if we see previous years' data than you have very strong chances of qualifying for JEE-Advance 2020 and qualifying JEE-Advance would take you to IITs which are the premier institutions of India for Engineering. As of now JEE=Advance is scheduled on September 27th. You can check the previous years' cut-off from the link given below :-

If you want to go for JEE-Main which is scheduled from September 1st to 6th, then try to hit the target of 95 percentile at least, to get into good NITs and to help you in this we have some resources prepared by our experts for JEE preparation, link from which you can access it is given below :-

You can also use JEE-Main College Predictor tool to predict the college based on your percentile and category, link for the same is given below :-

I hope this information helps you.

Fell free to ask in comment section if you have any doubt.

Good Luck!!

Hello,

Your overall expected rank will be around 121611. And you can calculate it by the formula (100-your total percentile)*869010/100

where 869010= Total number of candidates appeared in JEE Main January Session.

Your category rank is expected to be in between 4900-6500. Considering previous year cut off you may have chances of getting seat in the following Institutes

  • NIT, Andhra Pradesh
  • VNIT, Nagpur
  • NIT, Warangal
  • NIT, Uttarakhand
  • NIT, Srinagar
  • NIT, Silchar
  • NIT, Rourkela
  • NIT, Mizoram
  • NIT, Manipur
  • NIT, Kurukshetra
  • NIT, Jamshedpur
  • NIT, Arunachal Pradesh
  • NIT, Nagaland
  • NIT, Meghalaya
  • NIT, Hamirpur
  • NIT, Durgapur
  • NIT, Calicut

However, cut off is subjected to change. It may increase or decrease slightly depending on number of candidates appeared, difficulty of exam, number of seats available etc.
