Hi

Your profile suggest that you are from Andhra Pradesh

You have not mentioned your category so I am assuming that you are from general category

With 84.05 percentile  ,

And  with above predicted  rank , you have very low chances in NITs on the basis of past year closing ranks/cutoff trends . To get NITs, you should have got at least around 15,000 obc rank

For Example ,

You are from Andhra Pradesh but even under home state quota you dont have chance ieven in nit Andhrapradesh Pradesh. For instance, 14668 was closing OBC rank in 6th round of josaa counselling and it was for metallurgical engineering.

You don't have chances even under other state quota in other nits. For example, Closing cutoff rank for some of the lower nits  is given below in the 6th round of josaa counselling 2020 for other state with closing OBC rank

  • NIT Agartala, production engineering:- 15723

  • Nit Sikkim civil engineering:- 13352

You can check it at :-

With your predicted rank, you may have chances for government funded Engineering College in your state counselling and you have chances for private Engineering College like

  • Nirma University, Ahmedabad

  • Symbiosis Institute of Technology, Pune

  • Lovely Professional University, Phagwara

  • Amrita School of Engineering, Coimbatore

Hello aspirant,
According to your JEE Mains Paper-1 percentile your rank is expected to be in between 163168 - 183425. With this rank it is difficult to get seat in NITs. You can try in Private Engineering colleges which gives admissions through JEE Mains rank. In next attempt prepare well and work hard.
Tips to get good percentile:
1) You can concentrate on the topics which you missed in last attempt.
2) Give more importance to topics which has more weightage.
3) Avoid negative marking by answering only the questions you know answers properly.
4) Practice previous years question papers.
5) Give mock tests so that your score can increase.
