I'm sorry to inform you that the chances are bleak of your getting an nit and being in general makes it much more difficult.
But don't lose hope, you can try for various state colleges which accept jee mains marks.
Hope it helps.
Being a general candidate and having such a low marks in jee mains which is 78.29 percentile.
I don't think there is a chance of getting any government colleges. You will definitely not get any NIT , and nither IIIT or GFTI's . You should probably go for some private college , if theyaccept your marks. Or you should drop and prepare well and get above 97 98 percentile to get into NIT.
Thank you.
Hi there!!!! Based on your score you can't get seat in any NIT since the cutoff for general category for jee mains is above 89 percentile. So you are not eligible for counselling for NITs. You should opt for other colleges through different entrance exams or go for private colleges. Or as an alternative you could also go for another attempt at jee. Best of luck
