Hello,

Based on our JEE Main rank predictor tool the overall percentile is expected to be in between 97.1 - 98.5 and the overall expected rank is in between 20460 - 23000. Based on the previous year cut off you have chances of getting seat in NITs like

  • Dr. B R Ambedkar National Institute of Technology, Jalandhar: Bio Technology
  • National Institute of Technology Durgapur: Civil Engineering
  • National Institute of Technology Patna: Electrical Engineering

The cut off changes every year depending on the total number of candidates appeared, difficulty level of examination and total number of seats available etc.
