My son got 99.3 percent in JEE mains. His primary interest include computers electrical and electronics Kindly guide preference selection for JOUSSA councelling

Ans: With a 99.3 percentile in JEE Main (expected rank 7,201–8,400), your son can target ECE at NIT Calicut (2024 closing rank: 7,433), NIT Rourkela (5,721), or NIT Surathkal (7,434), alongside Electrical Engineering at NIT Trichy (7,193) and NIT Warangal (11,415). While CSE in top NITs like Trichy (1,245) or Warangal (2,186) is unlikely, newer NITs like NIT Andhra Pradesh (CSE cutoff: ~25,707) or NIT Delhi (AI & DS: 9,377) may offer CSE seats. Prioritize ECE/Electrical in higher-ranked NITs during JoSAA counseling, balancing branch preference with institutional reputation, and include CSE options in emerging NITs as lower preferences. All the BEST for your Son's Admission & a Prosperous Future!

He has a similar rank 100XX in advanced and is getting branches like chemical , biotechnology and possible electrical in lower ranked IIT like Tirupati , Goa , Mandi and Jammu . How should we go about in priority between NITS and IITS . He is male general category

Ans: With a JEE Main percentile of 99.3 (~8,000–10,000 rank) and JEE Advanced rank ~10,000, prioritize ECE/Electrical Engineering at lower-tier IITs (e.g., IIT Goa Electrical, 2024 cutoff: ~7,944–9,603) over Chemical/Biotechnology for alignment with interests, leveraging IITs’ research infrastructure and global opportunities despite moderate placements (IIT Mandi ECE: 72%, IIT Goa Electrical: 78%). Alternatively, opt for CSE/ECE at top NITs like NIT Trichy (ECE cutoff: ~7,219, 95.47% placements) or NIT Surathkal (ECE cutoff: ~7,132, 90% placements), which offer stronger branch-specific placement consistency (Amazon, Intel) and curriculum relevance. If CSE is non-negotiable, NIT Warangal (CSE cutoff: ~1,615) or NIT Calicut (CSE cutoff: ~2,000) are preferable despite higher cutoffs. Weigh IIT Jammu ECE (cutoff ~8,000–10,000) for institutional prestige against NIT Trichy ECE for core roles. Monitor JoSAA counselling for branch upgradation in later rounds, balancing career goals and institutional advantages.
