Hello,

try to score as high as possible. there is no particular number to it. for home state it will be near to 1K and for open state it will be below 500. Demand of CSE and ECE is high so rank bar for both is very low which makes it more difficult to crack.

try to score 80% of total marks which is a safe place. as there are many campus of NIT. you will get into one for sure.

Try to solve as many questions possible and if there is any negative marking then don't do guess work in that section.

Hope it helps!
