Can I get admission in NIT with 77 percentile in jee mains? I belong to General category.

Dear aspirant,

As you have mentioned that you have got 77 percentile and you want to know whether or not you are eligible to take admission in any of the nits or not.

So let me tell you that your percentile is a bit low as compared to the cut offs at nits. To get into a decent nit you need to score atleast 96 percentile to get a better branch too.

So, I would like you to mention your home state so that I can also guide you in a detailed manner for your home state nit.

Hello Aspirant,

Unfortunately not because according to the mentioned percentile your rank is expected to be in the range of 235290 - 264500 and with such rank and category it is very difficult to get any of the NITs/IIIT until you deserves Home state quota for any of the north-eastern states like Assam, Sikkim, Nagaland and likewise, because they generally have closing cut-off around 2-3 Lakhs for Home state candidates.
