If your daughter is expecting around 85 percentile in JEE Main Paper 2 (B.Arch), she has a decent but moderate chance for architecture admissions. With 85 percentile, getting top NITs like NIT Trichy, NIT Calicut, or SPA Delhi may be difficult in the General category, as their cutoffs are usually much higher. However, she may have chances in some newer NITs, state government architecture colleges, or reputed private institutions that accept JEE Paper 2 scores.
Dear Namrata,
With an 85 percentile in JEE Paper 2, there may be chances of getting B.Arch in some NITs and State Government colleges, but also consider the category. You should also consider state counselling options and reputed private colleges.
Here is the list of Top B.Arch Colleges in India
