Hello Dear,

As per the score mentioned by you it is not a good score in terms for general candidate. Because on this score you will not able to get any college. But if you belong to PH category then this score is considered to be fair enough. For more information you can visit the link and compare the cutoff of previous year:

But as per my opinion you should wait for the counselling. It also depends on home state and other state as you have not mentioned your home state. You can predict the list college which you can get through the link below:.

Hello Aspirant,

Since you have not mentioned your category so considering it as general.

No 2.83 percentile is not at all good score in JEE-Main 2021.

According to the percentile mentioned by you in the question  and category, your rank is expected to be in the range of 994049 - 1117455, you can check out marks Vs ranks Vs Percentile from the link given below :-

Or

You can also use JEE-Main Rank Predictor to predict your rank :-

So on such rank and category you have no chance to get any of the NITs/IIITs/CFTIs, so I would recommend you to prepare for further attempts of JEE-Main and to help you in your preparation we have some resources which you can access from the link given below :-

You can check out previous year's cut-offs from the official website of JOSAA as given below :-

https://josaa.nic.in/Result/Result/currentorcr.aspx

Note that the above prediction is made on the basis of latest cut-offs available on official website of JOSAA or CSAB and the cut-offs are bound to change every year depending upon various factors such as the number of candidates appearing in an examination, the number of candidates qualifying an examination, difficulty level of the paper, and so on.

To have a list of all those colleges which you can get based upon your marks, category, and state you can use JEE-Main College Predictor:-
