Hi student,

As per the previous year cutoffs for NITs, at 7842 SC Category rank it is quite impossible even to get admission in any of the NITs. Some NITs lower NITs might admit you but in lower branch.

You may get admission in state level colleges in good branch or you can opt for these branches if you want a good college:-

  • Chemical Engineering
  • Metallurgical and Materials Engineering
  • Food Processing Engineering
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Biotechnology Engineering
  • Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering

Some good colleges for you:-

  • Lovely Professional University
  • JIET Jodhpur
  • Amity University, Jaipur
  • SRM University
  • Private colleges..................
