Hello student ,

Hope you are in your best health so the answer to your question is as follows:-

According to your percentile i.e 68% , I checked you rank by using this link

and your rank comes out to be  between 327360 - 368000.  So, given below i mentioned you the last years cutoff for NIT Durgapur , you can go through this and check whether you are getting NIT Durgapur as per last year's cutoff . And also i want to you to know that admission basically depends upon many things like number of students participating in counselling, rank , reservations etc. So , be patient enough and filled the form for counselling and also had many options too .

Hi

It is very difficult to predict the actual jee mains rank from your percentile as it changes every year based on different factors like how many candidates appeared on your session,how tough the paper was along with how many seats are available in different universities and performance of candidates appearing for the exam. Based on previous few years trends and cutoff and assuming you are from general category a predicted rank can be given which should be around 327360 to 368000.

It is not possible to get NITs with this rank. Candidates need to score 95+ percentile to get top NITs and 80+percentile for reserved category candidates. Even for Biotechnology in NIT durgapur 6th round counseling the closing rank was around 50,000. If you want NIT i suggest give it another try, and try to get 95+ percentile,  it is hard but not impossible.  Best of luck

Hi

I am assuming that you belong to general category

With 68 percentile/ nta score


Your profile suggest that your home state is West Bengal so you will be eligible for home state quota in NIT Durgapur

I am extremely sorry to tell you but with above predicted rank you have a very low chance in NIT Durgapur for any branch even under home state quota

For example,

In 6th round of josaa counselling 2020, closing rank for gender-neutral  for general category was 49673   rank    under home state in NIT Durgapur and it was for Bio Technology

You can check the same at

https://josaa.nic.in/Result/Result/currentorcr.aspx

Even to get into lower NITs you should have got at least around 45000 - 50,000 rank i. e 95.5 - 96 percentile

Some of the engineering colleges in which you hold a good chance are listed below along with the link for their previous year cutoff :-

*Budge Budge Institute of Technology, Kolkata :- https://www.careers360.com/colleges/budge-budge-institute-of-technology-kolkata/cut-off?college_id=4747&exam_sub_exam_id=2&ici=college_view_cutoffs

*MH Saboo Siddik College of Engineering, Mumbai :- https://www.careers360.com/colleges/mh-saboo-siddik-college-of-engineering-mumbai/cut-off?college_id=4990&exam_sub_exam_id=2&ici=college_view_cutoffs

*College of Engineering and Management, Kolaghat  :- https://www.careers360.com/colleges/college-of-engineering-and-management-kolaghat/cut-off?college_id=2514&exam_sub_exam_id=2&ici=college_view_cutoffs

Above prediction of colleges is on the basis of past year data but  cut off/closing rank for colleges keeps changing every year depending upon many factors like number of students that appeared in the examination, difficulty level of the JEE main question paper for different shifts etc so

To have a personalised report on your chances of getting a college you can go through our college predictor, it will give you complete list of colleges which you can get on the basis of the category you belong to,  your home state, your gender etc, the link for  jee main college predictor is provided below
