Well it all depends on the college cut offs which directly or indirectly depend on the complexity of paper, number of students appeared in the exam and number of seats in different college. There are college for example NIT Srinagar when students with such ranks are pursuing their degrees however if the cut offs are pretty high then it might get pretty much difficult to secure a seat in any NIT if you have qualifies JEE Main or any IIT if you have qualified JEE Adv.

It is suggested you go through the list of colleges you want to apply in and make your own preference list. for example It should be noted the cut off for EWS category is lower than the general category CSE in NIT Trichy is your priority followed by CSE in NIT Warangal, you can fill CSE at NIT Trichy at serial number 1 and CSE at NIT Warangal at serial number 2 and so on and so forth. However to get any NIT, you must have qualified JEE Mains and to get any IIT, you must have qualifies JEE Advanced. It should be noted the cut off for OBC/ EWS/ SC/ ST category is lower than the general category

Hello,

If the above mentioned rank is secured in JEE Main, it is quite difficult to get seat in NIT/IIIT/GFTI with the given rank. Your category rank must be under 8000 to have decent chances of getting seat in NIT/IIIT/GFTI. Please check the previous year cut off for admission in to NITs/IIITs/GFTIs to get an idea about the cut off using the link given below

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.

You may apply for state counselling such as MHT CET, UPCET, MP BE etc which accepts JEE Main score.

To know the colleges in which you have chances of getting seat you can use JEE Main college predictor tool using the link below
