HEY THERE!!

With your JEE Main All India Rank (AIR) of 76,950 and an OBC-NCL category rank of 23,853, here’s an overview of your options for NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs:

**NITs**

Getting into the main branches such as Computer Science (CSE), Electronics (ECE), or Mechanical Engineering at most NITs will be challenging. Even newer NITs have these ranks under 20,000 for the OBC-NCL category. However, there's a possibility for branches with lower demand like Biotechnology, Metallurgy, Mining, Production, or Civil Engineering at some of the newer or North-East NITs. This is more likely if you have a home state quota in a less competitive state. For mid-tier and top NITs, the cutoffs for any branch are generally well below your rank, making it hard to secure a spot there.

**IIITs**

You have a chance in IIITs, mainly in less popular branches or at newer IIITs. High-demand areas like CSE or ECE usually have OBC-NCL ranks below 15,000–18,000. Despite this, seats might be available at newer IIITs for branches like IT, ECE, or various specializations, particularly during the later rounds of admission.

**GFTIs (Government Funded Technical Institutes)**

You stand a reasonable chance at several GFTIs, especially for non-core or less sought-after branches. GFTIs usually have higher closing ranks for the OBC-NCL category, providing opportunities in institutes such as Assam University, Gurukula Kangri, and other state-funded colleges.

**Action Plan**

1. Apply Broadly: In the JoSAA counselling, fill out as many choices as possible including all branches and institutes (NITs, IIITs, GFTIs) to improve your opportunities.

2. State Counselling:If applicable, utilize state counselling to take advantage of lower cutoffs if you possess a state quota.

3. Remain Flexible:Stay open to various branches and locations. Depending on college policies, you may have the option to change branches after your first year.

Overall Summary:

Securing core branches at leading or mid-level NITs or IIITs is not likely, but there's a reasonable chance at newer NITs, IIITs, and several GFTIs, especially in non-core branches. Ensure you fill all possible options in JoSAA counselling to increase your chances of admission.

Hello Arjun,

with a JEE main general category rank of 38,860, securing admissions to electromics and communication engineering(ECE) in top NITs in south india is challenging. however you may have a chance in newer or less competitive IIITs such as IIIT SRIRANGAM, IIIT Kottayam, or IIITDM Kancheepuram, where ECE closing rank have extended beyond 35,000 in recent years. its advisable to participate in all JOSAA counselling rounds and consider spot rounds, as cutoffs can vary annually based on seat availability and applicant preferences.

HELLO,

This is irrelevant question dear how can we schedule or postpone your exam please provide right question.

To get into IIIT, prepare for the JEE Main entrance exam. Focus on Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. The syllabus includes topics from NCERT 11th and 12th. Practice regularly, focus on problem-solving, and take mock tests for time management and accuracy.

With a JEE Mains SC category rank of 19,579 and a CRL rank of 321,697, securing a seat in top NITs or IIITs might be challenging. However, you may have a chance in some newer or lower-ranked institutes, depending on their cutoff trends. Your percentile of 79 supports this.

HEY THERE!!!,Based on your details:

  • April 2025 session score: 130 marks (2nd April, 2nd shift)

  • January 2025 percentile: 91.27

  • Category: OBC-NCL

Here’s a detailed analysis of your expected percentile, rank, and IIIT admission chances :

1. Percentile Estimate for 130 Marks (April 2025 Session)

  • In recent JEE Main sessions, 130 marks typically corresponds to a percentile between 95 and 97 , depending on the paper’s difficulty and competition.

  • Since your January percentile was 91.27 for a lower score, your April percentile should be higher-likely in the 95–96.5 range .

2. Expected All India Rank (AIR)

  • With a percentile of 95–96.5 , your expected rank would be in the range of 60,000 to 40,000 (approximate, as actual ranks depend on the number of candidates and session normalization).

  • For OBC-NCL, your category rank will be better (lower) than your general rank.

3. IIIT Admission Chances (OBC-NCL Category)

  • JEE Main 2025 OBC-NCL cutoff for IIITs: The qualifying percentile is around 79.43. (https://www.vedantu.com/jee-main/cut-off)

  • Previous year closing ranks for IIITs (OBC-NCL):

    • For core branches like CSE, closing OBC-NCL ranks at top IIITs range from 7,000 to 15,000 (https://www.shiksha.com/engineering/articles/iiits-cut-off-for-jee-main-blogId-20005) .

    • For lower-demand IIITs or branches, closing ranks can go up to 25,000–30,000 (OBC-NCL category) (https://www.shiksha.com/engineering/articles/iiits-cut-off-for-jee-main-blogId-20005) .

  • With an expected AIR of 40,000–60,000 , your OBC-NCL rank may fall between 10,000 and 20,000 .

4. College Probability

  • Highly competitive IIITs (like IIIT Hyderabad, IIIT Allahabad, IIIT Delhi, IIIT Bangalore): Unlikely for CSE, as their OBC-NCL closing ranks are much lower (within 7,000–12,000) (https://www.shiksha.com/engineering/articles/iiits-cut-off-for-jee-main-blogId-20005) .

  • Newer/less competitive IIITs and branches (like ECE, IT, or regional IIITs): You have a fair chance , especially in later JoSAA rounds, for branches other than CSE. (https://www.shiksha.com/engineering/articles/iiits-cut-off-for-jee-main-blogId-20005)

  • If your OBC-NCL rank is close to or below 15,000: You might get CSE in newer IIITs or non-core branches in established IIITs.

Summary Table

Aspect Estimate/Status
April 2025 Percentile 95–96.5 (expected)
Expected AIR 40,000–60,000
Expected OBC-NCL Rank 10,000–20,000
IIIT CSE (top IIITs) Unlikely
IIIT (other branches/newer IIITs) Possible in later rounds

What to Do Next?

  • Participate in JoSAA counseling and fill in as many IIIT choices as possible, including all branches and newer IIITs.

  • Consider state counseling if you have a state quota for other government colleges.

  • Keep backup options like NITs (lower branches), GFTIs, or state engineering colleges.

In summary:
With 130 marks and OBC-NCL category, you are above the cutoff and have a fair chance at IIITs, especially in non-CSE branches and newer IIITs. Top IIITs for CSE may not be possible, but keep all options open in JoSAA counseling for the best chance of securing a government seat.

Hello Aspirant,

Selecting the top institute between IIIT Bhagalpur, IIIT Agartala, IIIT Dharwad, IIIT Kalyani, IIITV-ICD, IIIT Senapati, BIT Patna, and NIT Arunachal Pradesh for CSE is based on a variety of factors

  1. Among the options provided here, IIIT Dharwad and IIIT Kalyani generally have the strongest placement records, although some students got decent placements through product-based and service companies.
  2. BIT Patna and NIT Arunachal Pradesh do well in terms of placements through "service" sector companies, leaking out a small amount of placements.

  3. IIITV-ICD (the newer campus of IIIT Vadodara) is evolving, but growing.

  4. IIIT Agartala, IIIT Bhagalpur, and IIIT Senapati - being younger still, might have some sparse placement history at this point.

Alumni Network :

  1. Older institutions like BIT Patna and NIT Arunachal Pradesh have a more robust alumni network and culture.
  2. IIIT Dharwad and IIIT Kalyani are rapidly developing an alumni culture.
  3. Younger IIITs have some distance to travel in terms of having a strong alumni presence when it comes to alumni presence.

Exposure & Opportunities :

  1. IIITs focus more on coding culture and tech events, which is a blessing for CSE students.
  2. IIIT Dharwad and Kalyani have been participating in coding competitions, hackathons, and tech partnerships.
  3. Location also makes a difference — being close to tech hotspots such as Bangalore (Dharwad) or Kolkata (Kalyani) can provide more visibility.

Faculty:

  1. The quality of the faculty is inconsistent for all except IIIT Kalyani and Dharwad have improved ratios of older PhDs as well as research-productive faculty.
  2. IIIT Dharwad and IIIT Kalyani have relatively better hostels also. Unlike other IIITs they have even better food quality.

Food and Hostel Facilities:

  1. It has been suggested in the feedback that IIIT Dharwad and IIIT Kalyani have relatively better hostels as well as quality of food.

  2. If degree brand and alumni network matter the most to you, BIT Patna or NIT Arunachal could be better.
  3. For those willing to bet on improving campuses, IIIT Bhagalpur or IIITV-ICD could offer fast-growing opportunities with time.

With 78.53 percentile (OBC-NCL, Female, Home State: West Bengal), chances for NIT, IIIT, or GFTI in core branches like ECE, EE, or ME are very low. You may get lower NITs or GFTIs with Civil or lesser-preferred branches in spot rounds.

With an OBC-NCL rank of 20242 and a CRL rank of 66k in JEE Main 2025, you have a good chance of getting into a NIT for Biotechnology or Chemical Engineering. The specific NIT and branch you'll get will depend on the cutoff for those programs in your category. IIITs are also likely options, especially for branches like Information Technology.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

NITs:

Biotechnology:

Many NITs offer B.Tech programs in Biotechnology. With your rank, you could potentially get into NITs like NIT Agartala, NIT Arunachal Pradesh, NIT Durgapur, or NIT Jamshedpur, but the specific branch and seat availability would depend on the cutoff that year.

Chemical Engineering:

NITs with Chemical Engineering programs, like NIT Karnataka, Surathkal, and NIT Trichy, could be possibilities. You'll likely need to consider the cutoff and branch availability in those NITs.

Other Branches:

If your first-choice branches (Biotechnology, Chemical Engineering) are unavailable at the NIT you're aiming for, you might consider alternative branches like Civil, Electrical, or Mechanical Engineering.

IIITs:

General IIITs:

With your rank, you're likely to be considered for most IIITs offering B.Tech programs in Computer Science, Information Technology, and other relevant fields.

Specific IIITs:

IIIT Allahabad, IIIT Gwalior, and IIIT Bhagalpur are examples of IIITs that could be within reach with your rank.

Branch Options:

IIITs often have a wider range of B.Tech programs than NITs, so you might find a good fit in branches like Electronics and Communication, or Information Technology.

Factors Affecting Admission:

Cutoff Ranks:

The actual cutoff ranks for NITs and IIITs vary from year to year, depending on the difficulty of the exam, the number of candidates, and the number of seats available.

Branch Preference:

Your branch preferences during the JoSAA counseling will significantly impact which NIT or IIIT you get.

State Quota:

If you're a state resident, you might have a better chance of getting into a state-affiliated NIT.

JoSAA Counseling:

The JoSAA counseling process is crucial for seat allotment. You'll need to carefully choose your preferences and participate in the rounds to get the best possible outcome.
