Dear aspirant,

As you have mentioned that you have secured 72 percentile in JEE mains and taking into consideration that you belong to general category so let me tell you that predicted rank according to my knowledge will be around 2.5-3L.

In this percentile you do not have any chances for good nits like Jamshedpur durgapur Silchar allahabad rourkela Calicut but if you belong to one of these home states like mizoram, Arunachal Pradesh, Meghalaya, Agartala, sringar then you may stand some chances to get a seat in any of the nit as the home state cut off for these nits are very low.
