Hi
I am assuming that you belong to general category
With 88 percentile
-
Your crl rank will be around 122760 - 138000 as per our rank predictor at
With this rank, your chances of getting a seat in NIT, IIITs is extremely low. Even to get into lower NITs you should have got at least around 45000 - 50,000 rank i. e 95.5 - 96 percentile
And when it comes to computer science then,
Even to get into lower NITs, for cse your rank should have been at least around 28k - 29k i. e at least 97.5 percentile
For example,
In 6th round of josaa counselling 2020, under other state quota 29040 rank was closing rank for gender neutral for general category for computer science in NIT Mizoram which is one of the lower NITs

In 2020, qualifying cutoff for general category was 90.3765335 percentile

Thank you
Dear candidate, sorry to say but at 88 percentile you can’t get NIT if you are from General category. You should check for some State Engineering Colleges or private colleges. You can predict your college using this link:
