Hello Dear,
You have not mentioned the competitive exam which you have appeared and get 15898 rank also please mention the name of your state. Although the rank is not very good to fetch you any government college. But still I say wait for the counselling the cutoff depends on many factors the number of seats available, the difficulty level of paper and number of candidates writing the examination. And, hence varies every year depending on these factors.
Good Luck
