I got 76.7 %ile in Gen-EWS category and my CRL rank is 2L 20thansound and EWS rank is 31000 (JEE-M). I am from Uttar Pradesh and can you please guide me through the colleges I can opt for in JoSAA and CSAB counseling? And if there is ANY rare chance for NIT, IIIT OR GFTIs please do mention them too.

Hello Aspirant,

Unfortunately on such EWS rank it is very difficult to get any of the NITs even under EWS quota because closing EWS ranks were around 7k-9k for NITs/IIITs and 10k-11k for GFTIs and you are very far from it also you can see the closing EWS ranks of last year were like :-

National Institute of Technology Durgapur - Bio Technology (7788)

Institute of Technology, Guru Ghasidas Vishwavidyalaya (A Central University), Bilaspur, (C.G.) - Industrial and Production Engineering (11269)

Sant Longowal Institute of Engineering and Technology - Food Technology (11365)

You can check out previous year's cut-offs from the official website of JOSAA as given below :-

So on such rank and category you have no chance to get any of the NITs/IIITs/CFTIs/GFTIs , so I would recommend you to either go for state counselling for autonomous government colleges or for private colleges or you can prepare for further attempts of JEE-Main and to help you in your preparation we have some resources which you can access from the link given below :-

Note that the above prediction is made on the basis of latest cut-offs available on official website of JOSAA or CSAB and the cut-offs are bound to change every year depending upon various factors such as the number of candidates appearing in an examination, the number of candidates qualifying an examination, difficulty level of the paper, and so on.

To have a list of all those colleges which you can get based upon your marks, category, and state you can use JEE-Main College Predictor:-
