Hi I have got 94.95%ile in January Mains and my rank is around 43,850. I belong to OBC-NCL category and from Maharashtra state. Is there a chance for me to get admission into any branch of NIT Nagpur (Home State Quota)??
Hey Chirag
Calculating the actual rank is very tough as the April mains are yet to take place, however, you can use this rank formula to calculate your expected rank:-
Now, 100- your percentile score is the percentage of people ahead of you. Also, total number of participants in January JEE Main was 869010. So, your expected rank can be given by (100 - your total score) X 869010 /100.
In your case of scoring 94.95 percentile, your expected rank would be around 44885. Just keep in mind that these are General or Common Rank which is usually referred to as All India Rank and not category rank.
If, however, the number of candidates for April exam get increased to 1200000 then your final rank shall be (100 - your total score) X 1200000/100
now, at this rank it is very tough to get any core branch at one of the top NITs ie VNIT NAGPUR even if you belong to OBC-NCL category, however you can admission to smaller branches such as MINING ENGINEERING, METALLURGICAL AND MATERIALS ENGINEERING at VNIT NAGPUR. But you still have an attempt left in April session and so work hard for it. If you are interested in previous years cutoff for VNIT NAGPUR, you can visit this link
