Hello Aspirant,

Congratulations for your result.17000 is a good SC category score. It is quite difficult to predict the exact college as the trends changes every year. But we can predict your result based on the previous trends.

For your category, in order to get a seat in NITs, you need to score at least 9k - 10k SC rank, or 85 percentile as per past year trends.

Thus, with this much rank, chances are low for NITs. But yes you can get many home state government colleges under JOSSA Counselling.

If you want to check the chances of getting a college, you can go through our college predictor link which is given below:
