To get atop NIT you have to score around 190 plus marks in jee mains to get your choice of branch and to get seat in lower NITs 140-150 in jee mains will be enough but in that case you won't get your choice of branch....so try to acore as more as possible..Click the below given link for more details regarding cutoff trends:
