Hello student,

With 92.16 percentile in JEE Mains and 78% in CBSE board under the General category , you have a decent chance of getting into a government engineering college . However, securing a seat in top NITs or IIITs might be difficult, as the cutoffs are usually higher for the general category.

Options to Consider:

1. Lower-Tier NITs/IIITs :

   • You may get non-core branches (like Civil, Chemical, or Metallurgical) in lower-tier NITs or IIITs through JoSAA counseling .
     
     

2. State-Level Government Colleges :

   • Depending on your home state, you could have better chances in state-level government colleges through the state quota.
     
     

3. CSAB Counseling :

   • If seats remain vacant after JoSAA counseling, you can participate in CSAB Special Rounds , which might give you a chance in NITs or IIITs.

With 92.16 percentile , you can likely get a seat in lower-tier NITs/IIITs in non-core branches or in state government colleges . Participate in JoSAA counseling and keep an eye on CSAB Special Rounds .
