It depends upon the JEE Main and JEE Advance cut offs, If You manage to qualify the exam by achieving the cut off, You can apply for JOSAA Counselling. It should be noted the cut off for EWS/SC/ST/FEMALES/OBC category is lower than the general category

If you manage to qualify JEE Main Cutoff, You would be eligible for JEE Advance which is the intake exam for IITs as mentioned above.


However It is usually advised to fill the choices as per the preference of colleges and departments, for example CSE in NIT Trichy is your priority followed by CSE in NIT Warangal, you can fill CSE at NIT Trichy at serial number 1 and CSE at NIT Warangal at serial number 2 and so on and so forth. However to get any NIT, you must have qualified JEE Mains and to get any IIT, you must have qualifies JEE Advanced

But the previous cut offs of colleges should be taken in consideration, it is better to research over the cut off of colleges then make a preference list of colleges and fill accordingly

Hello Deepali,
No, you would not be able to get admission in any of the above mentioned colleges. Even it would be very difficult for you to qualify JEE Mains. The expected cutoff for JEE mains would be around 85 percentile.

Hi aspirant

You will not qualify most probably and there is no chances of getting a college .If you are from SC/ST then you can expect but otherwise not.

Its better to prepare for april session and appear again in the exam.Score more than 90%ile can help you to qualify JEE mains and score more than 95%ile can give you college.So accordingly you need to prepare.
