my son got 95.85 percentile in jee mains 2025 general category from telangana. Is there any chance to get cse or any other branch in NIT s and IIIT s

Based on your son's 95.85 percentile in JEE Mains 2025 from Telangana in the General category , here is a clear analysis of his chances for admission into NITs, IIITs, or other good colleges:

Estimated All India Rank (AIR)

Using the formula:[

\text{AIR} = (100 - \text{Percentile}) \times \frac{\text{Total Candidates}}{100}
]

Assuming approx 12 lakh candidates appeared in 2025:

AIR≈(100−95.85)×1,20,000= 49,800\text{AIR} \approx (100 - 95.85) \times 1,20,000 = \textbf{~49,800}AIR≈(100−95.85)×1,20,000= 49,800

So, your son’s estimated AIR is ~50,000 .

Chances in NITs and IIITs (via JoSAA Counselling)

NITs

• NIT Warangal (Home State): Unlikely for CSE, ECE, or core branches due to high cutoffs (within ~10,000 for General).

• Lower/Northeast NITs (e.g., NIT Mizoram, Meghalaya, Sikkim, etc.):

  • Possible for less competitive branches (Civil, Production, Metallurgy).

  • Difficult for CSE or ECE.

IIITs

You can get admission into newer IIITs such as:

• IIIT Bhagalpur

• IIIT Agartala

• IIIT Manipur

• IIIT Nagpur (less likely for CSE)

• Likely branches: IT, ECE, or newer specializations

95.85 percentile in JEE Mains 2025 under the General Category from Telangana , here’s an analysis of his chances and options:

Estimated Rank

To estimate the All India Rank (AIR) :

• Formula:

  AIR≈(100−Percentile)×Total Candidates100\text{AIR} \approx (100 - Percentile) \times \frac{\text{Total Candidates}}{100}AIR≈(100−Percentile)×100Total Candidates

• Assuming around 12 lakh candidates appeared in 2025:

  AIR≈(100−95.85)×1,20,000= 49,800\text{AIR} \approx (100 - 95.85) \times 1,20,000 = \textbf{~49,800}AIR≈(100−95.85)×1,20,000= 49,800

So, his approximate AIR is around 50,000 .

Chances for NITs/IIITs

With a General category rank around 50,000 , here’s what to expect:

Possible (Low Cutoff) NITs/IIITs :

• Lower branches in newer NITs :

  • NIT Mizoram, NIT Sikkim, NIT Meghalaya, NIT Nagaland

• Branches like :

  • Biotechnology

  • Civil

  • Metallurgy

  • Production Engineering

• Home State Quota (Telangana) helps only in NIT Warangal , but cutoff is very high there (usually <10,000 AIR for general).

Good Chance in IIITs (Newer Ones) :

• IIIT Manipur, IIIT Kurnool, IIIT Nagpur, IIIT Agartala, etc., especially for less popular branches.

Difficult to Get in :

• Top NITs like Trichy, Surathkal, Warangal, Calicut — even for lower branches.

• Core branches (CSE, ECE, etc.) at most NITs/IIITs.

Other Options to Consider

1. State Counselling (TS EAMCET)

• Apply through Telangana EAMCET if he appeared for it — chances of top state colleges like OU, JNTU, CBIT improve significantly with lower competition.

2. CSAB Special Rounds

• Participate after JoSAA rounds.

• Often seats remain vacant in lower NITs/IIITs — cutoffs drop, so you may get lucky.

3. Private Colleges through JEE Main

• Many private colleges accept JEE Main score and may offer scholarships for 95+ percentilers.

• Examples: Shiv Nadar University, UPES, LNMIIT Jaipur, Amrita University, SRM (through JEE)

Hello,

Your son would have placed between 45,000 and 50,000 in the general category of JEE Mains 2025 with a Telangana score of 95.85 percentile. It's unlikely that he will get CSE in a top NIT or IIIT, but he might have a chance in a lower-ranked NIT, IIIT, or North-Eastern NIT for non-core fields like data science, mechanical, civil, or ECE. Particularly in NIT Warangal's less-demanded branches (though still difficult for CSE), state quota and home state preferences may be beneficial. Think about choices such as IIIT Una, IIIT Bhagalpur, IIIT Nagpur, etc. For more opportunities, he should also remember CSAB counselling.

All the best.
