hi,

see cutoff score changes every year and it depends on certain factors like number of applicants, questions difficulty level, seat matrix, students category , choice of engineering stream etc. however jee main april session exam is yet to held and if this time the number of applicants increased there would be an effect on the current score and percentile. now see every nit has 85 percentage seats reserve for the domicile candidates, remaining 15% seats are fills by all india counselling. however you have to decide which stream you want to go for and have to give choices in the counselling process.
