With a JEE Main rank of 58000, while it becomes challenging to secure a seat in the top-tier NITs for the most sought-after branches like Computer Science or Electrical Engineering, you still have possibilities in some of the newer NITs or in specific branches at other NITs.

At this rank range, your options might lean towards branches like Civil Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Metallurgical and Materials Engineering, or even some of the newer interdisciplinary courses offered by certain NITs. The specific NITs and the courses you might be eligible for will depend on factors like your category (General, OBC-NCL, SC, ST, EWS) and your state of domicile (for the home state quota).

For the General category , with a rank of 58000, you might find opportunities in some of the newer NITs located in states like the North-Eastern states, or in branches that are generally less preferred at some of the established NITs.

If you belong to a reserved category (OBC-NCL, SC, ST, EWS), you will have a better chance of securing a seat in a wider range of NITs and possibly even in slightly more popular branches compared to the general category. The cutoff ranks for reserved categories are typically lower.

Keep in mind that the cutoff ranks can vary slightly each year based on the number of applicants and the difficulty level of the exam. However, with a rank of 58000, focusing on the newer NITs and less competitive branches is a practical approach. Good luck with the counseling process!
