Hi

It's difficult to predict the marks you require in JEE mains to get into NITs because closing rank keeps changing every year  depending upon various factors like

  • number of students that appeared in the exam, kind of marks obtained by them ,

  • toughness level of the jee main examination ,

  • number of seats available for the branch you want etc.

But yes,

When we go through previous year trend then ,

Under other state quota , closing rank for some of the nits for which closing rank goes low are listed below along with their closing rank in the 6th round of josaa counselling 2020 for sc category  :

B.Tech/B.Arch Admissions OPEN
