Understanding JEE Main Scores
- Marks vs Percentile: Your percentile score indicates how well you've performed compared to others. A higher percentile means a better rank.
- Percentile vs Rank: Here's a rough estimate of percentile vs rank:

- 99.967+ percentile: Rank 1-500 (general category)
- 97-98.9 percentile: Rank 1,000-4,000 (potential for top NITs and IIITs)
- 90-96.9 percentile: Rank 4,000-10,000 (good for popular branches in NITs and state colleges)
- Safe Scores for Admission
- Top NITs (CSE): 255+ marks
- NITs (Top Branches): 180-200+ marks (98-99+ percentile)
- IIITs & GFTIs: 120-140 marks (90-94 percentile)
Potential Colleges Based on Percentile
Assuming you're aiming for top engineering colleges, here are some potential options based on percentile ranges:
- *99+ percentile*: Top IITs, NITs (Trichy, Warangal, Surathkal)
- 97-98.9 percentile: NITs, IIITs (potential for branches like CSE, Mechanical, Electrical)
- 90-96.9 percentile: Popular branches in NITs, state colleges, and private universities
Next Steps

2. Research colleges Look into colleges that match your estimated percentile and rank range.
3. Counseling: Prepare for JEE Main counseling, which will determine seat allocation.
Some top colleges to consider are
- National Institutes of Technology (NITs) Mechanical, Civil, Electrical, Computer Science, IT
- IIITs: Computer Science, Electronics, Information Technology
- UPES Dehradun: Petroleum Engineering, Civil, Mechanical, Electrical
- Shiv Nadar University: Computer Science, Mechanical, Electrical Engineering
