Will boards percentage affect admission in NITs? For example, if someone got 77% in boards but scored under 500 rank in Mains, will it be hard for him/her to get a seat in any top NIT, with CSE Category : general other state
Dear Aspirant,
No, boards exam percentage do not affect your admission into NITs.
Generally, there is a qualifying percentage and students should have gotten above 75 percentage to be eligible to get admission into NITs/ IITs.
Anyone who is meeting this eligibility criteria is treated the same and the admission is given solely based on the rank of the person.
This year the minimum percentage requirement criteria has also been scraped off to abate the effects of the pandemic on the students and hence it is enough of you just pass the clas 12 board examination.
Hope this helps.
