Hello,

Practically speaking, NIT Jalandhar is much better than GNDU in regards to placements and MS/PhD opportunities. If I would be in your position, I would definitely choose NIT Jalandhar even if I don't get Computer Science. Because, in tier-1 universities, one can seat for IT companies even if they are from Core branches.

However, you can go through the college information and decide according to you at the end:

1. NIT Jalandhar

2. GNDU

Dear aspirant,

It is quite difficult to predict the closing rank because it varies every year depending on what the interests and preferences of the students are.

We can to some extent go by the previous year trends to get an idea.

The closing rank for homestate for general category is around 1 L.

This rank has gone up to 7.9 L in special rounds .

For more info on cutoff please check the link below

NIT Jalandhar

For getting more idea about what possibilities you have based on your rank please check the college predictor linked below.

Hey there!

Well it is hard to predict about the colleges as admission to these institutes depends on various factors like:

1- Difficulty level of examination

2- No. of students appeared in exam

3- No. of seats available in institutes

4- Rank of candidate

5- Closing rank of programs

However we can get a rough idea of seat allocation by analyzing previous years trend.

---With 81 percentile and assuming your OPEN category, your rank would be anywhere in between 194370 - 218500, as per our JEE mains rank predictor tool

https://engineering.careers360.com/jee-main-rank-predictor

Also according to previous years data, the maximum closing rank at various NITs for general category for CS and IT program is around 6000-12000 considering home state quota.

Hello Aspirant,

See it is quite difficult to tell you an exact figure of your percentile and rank because it keeps on changing every year depending upon various factors but yes we can help you with approximate figures on the basis of analysis of previous year's data.

So If we go through the analysis of marks Vs Percentile Vs rank for JEE-Main 2021 then according to the marks mentioned by you in the question your percentile and OBC rank are expected to be in the range of 70-84 and around 60000-65000 respectively.

You can check out marks Vs ranks Vs Percentile from the link given below :-

https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-main-marks-vs-percentile

Note that the percentile and rank which are predicted is only the expected percentile and rank on the basis of previous year's data so your actual percentile  and rank might vary depending upon current factors.

On such percentile range and being an OBC candidate you have good chances to qualify for JEE-Advance 2022 but still the cutoffs for this year have not released yet officially.
