Dear understudy,


Above all else you should realize that you can't get into a NIT by getting any rate into Board test.

Indeed, you should need to finish the board test to get confirmation however scoring an excellent rate in board can't get in NIT, on the off chance that you don't get great position in JEE Main.

For getting confirmation in a NIT, you need to sit for JEE Main test, and in the event that you perform well in JEE Main test, you will get one out of 31 NITs of India with your preffered branch.

Presently for your class which is SC, you need to get the percentile of 90+ in JEE Main test.

Dear student,

First of all you should know that you cannot get into an NIT by getting any percentage into Board exam.

Yes, you must have to pass the board exam to get admission but scoring an exceptional percentage in board cannot get in NIT, if you do not get good rank in JEE Main.

For getting admission in an NIT, you need to sit for JEE Main exam, and if you perform well in JEE Main exam, then you will get one out of 31 NITs of India with your preffered branch.

Now for your category which is SC, you need to get the percentile of 90+ in JEE Main exam.
