Hi i scored 83 percentile in jee mains and I am scoring around 64 marks in MHT cet what percentile should I expect and will I get low branches in good nits? What should I do

Ans: With 83 percentile in JEE Mains and about 64 marks in MHT CET 2025, your expected MHT CET percentile is below 70, making admission to top government colleges in Maharashtra or good NITs highly unlikely. You may get lower branches in private or lower-tier government colleges through state counseling. Focus on applying to private engineering colleges or universities like Pimpri, Symbiosis etc. with flexible cutoffs, and consider diploma-to-degree options if needed. NITs and top state colleges are not feasible at your current scores. All the best for your admission and a bright future!

मुझे JEE में 92.34 पर्सेंटाइल मिले हैं, मैं नीट का उम्मीदवार हूँ.. मुझे JEE के बारे में ज़्यादा जानकारी नहीं है, क्या यह अच्छा पर्सेंटाइल है? मैंने कुछ संस्थानों में 90+ पर्सेंटाइल पाने वाले लोगों के विज्ञापन देखे हैं, इसलिए मुझे लगा कि यह अच्छा पर्सेंटाइल है, लेकिन मैंने देखा कि बहुत से लोग 96 और 97 पर्सेंटाइल पाकर निराश हैं??, अगर मैं NEET पास करने में असफल हो जाता हूँ तो मैं बीटेक करना चाहता हूँ, इस पर्सेंटाइल से मैं क्या उम्मीद कर सकता हूँ, आई.सी.आई.टी. और आई.आई.टी. संभव नहीं होगा, इसलिए मैंने दूसरे चरण के लिए उपस्थित होने का फैसला किया है, और राज्य इंजीनियरिंग कॉलेजों में प्रवेश के लिए राज्य परीक्षा लिखने का भी फैसला किया है, क्या मुझे प्रतिष्ठित निजी इंजीनियरिंग कॉलेजों में प्रवेश मिल सकता है?
Ans: JEE मेन में 92.34 पर्सेंटाइल एक NEET उम्मीदवार के लिए एक अच्छा स्कोर है, लेकिन यह वांछित कैरियर पथ पर निर्भर करता है। 92+ पर्सेंटाइल अभी भी एक अच्छे निजी इंजीनियरिंग कॉलेज और कुछ GFTI में प्रवेश सुरक्षित कर सकता है। हालाँकि, इस पर्सेंटाइल पर IIT और NIT में प्रवेश संभव नहीं है। शीर्ष IIIT को बाद के दौर या कम मांग वाली शाखाओं में मौका मिल सकता है। GFTI कम प्रतिस्पर्धी शाखाओं में सीटें दे सकते हैं। निजी इंजीनियरिंग कॉलेजों पर भी विचार किया जा सकता है। विकल्पों में सुधार करने के लिए, JEE का दूसरा प्रयास करें, राज्य इंजीनियरिंग प्रवेश परीक्षाएँ लिखें और सीधे प्रवेश के माध्यम से निजी कॉलेजों पर विचार करें। पहले मेडिकल परीक्षाओं पर ध्यान दें, लेकिन अगर NEET विफल हो जाता है तो प्लान B पर विचार करें। 'करियर | स्वास्थ्य | पैसा | संबंध' के बारे में अधिक जानने के लिए RediffGURUS को फॉलो करें।

Hello sir , I got 87.6 percentile in JEE mains .What NITs can I expect
Ans: Here is, How to Predict Your Chances of Admission into NIT or IIIT or GFTI After JEE Main/Advanced Results – A Step-by-Step Guide

Providing precise admission chances for each student can be challenging. Some reputed educational websites offer ‘College Predictor’ tools where you can check possible college options based on your percentile, category, and preferences. However, for a more accurate understanding, here’s a simple yet effective 9-step method using JoSAA’s past-year opening and closing ranks. This approach gives you a fair estimate (though not 100% exact) of your admission chances based on the previous year’s data.

Step-by-Step Guide to Check Your Admission Chances Using JoSAA Data
Step 1: Collect Your Key Details
Before starting, note down the following details:

Your JEE Main percentile
Your category (General-Open, SC, ST, OBC-NCL, EWS, PwD categories)
Preferred institute types (NIT, IIIT, GFTI)
Preferred locations (or if you're open to any location in India)
List of at least 3 preferred academic programs (branches) as backups (instead of relying on just one option)
Step 2: Access JoSAA’s Official Opening & Closing Ranks
Go to Google and type: JoSAA Opening & Closing Ranks 2024
Click on the first search result (official JoSAA website).
You will land directly on JoSAA’s portal, where you can enter your details to check past-year cutoffs.
Step 3: Select the Round Number
JoSAA conducts five rounds of counseling.
For a safer estimate, choose Round 4, as most admissions are settled by this round.
Step 4: Choose the Institute Type
Select NIT, IIIT, or GFTI, depending on your preference.
If you are open to all types of institutes, check them one by one instead of selecting all at once.
Step 5: Select the Institute Name (Based on Location)
It is recommended to check institutes one by one, based on your preferred locations.
Avoid selecting ‘ALL’ at once, as it may create confusion.
Step 6: Select Your Preferred Academic Program (Branch)
Enter the branches you are interested in, one at a time, in your preferred order.
Step 7: Submit and Analyze Results
After selecting the relevant details, click the ‘SUBMIT’ button.
The system will display Opening & Closing Ranks of the selected institute and branch for different categories.
Step 8: Note Down the Opening & Closing Ranks
Maintain a notebook or diary to record the Opening & Closing Ranks for each institute and branch you are interested in.
This will serve as a quick reference during JoSAA counseling.
Step 9: Adjust Your Expectations on a Safer Side
Since Opening & Closing Ranks fluctuate slightly each year, always adjust the numbers for safety.
Example Calculation:
If the Opening & Closing Ranks for NIT Delhi | Mechanical Engineering | OPEN Category show 8622 & 26186 (for Home State), consider adjusting them to 8300 & 23000 (on a safer side).
If the Female Category rank is 34334 & 36212, adjust it to 31000 & 33000.
Follow this approach for Other State candidates and different categories.
Pro Tip: Adjust your expected rank slightly lower than the previous year's cutoffs for realistic expectations during JoSAA counseling.

Can This Method Be Used for JEE April & JEE Advanced?
Yes! You can repeat the same steps after your April JEE Main results to refine your admission possibilities.
You can also follow a similar process for JEE Advanced cutoffs when applying for IITs.

Have some other options also as back-ups instead of relying only on JEE/JoSAA.

एमएचटी सीईटी में 68 अंक मिले हैं, पर्सेंटाइल अभी जारी नहीं हुआ है और बोर्ड में 83 अंक मिले हैं। मेरे करियर के लिए मुझे बताएं कि मेरा अपेक्षित पर्सेंटाइल कितना है, क्योंकि मैं तनाव में हूं और सिविल इंजीनियरिंग करना चाहता हूं।
Ans: एमएचटी सीईटी 2025 में 68 अंकों के साथ, आपका अपेक्षित प्रतिशत ऐतिहासिक सामान्यीकरण रुझानों के आधार पर 83.2-83.6 (अनुमानित रैंक 32,800-33,600) के बीच है। सिविल इंजीनियरिंग के लिए, यह रैंक गवर्नमेंट कॉलेज ऑफ इंजीनियरिंग, कराड (2024 क्लोजिंग रैंक: 37,855) और सिंहगढ़ एकेडमी ऑफ इंजीनियरिंग (क्लोजिंग रैंक: 43,215) के साथ संरेखित है, जबकि पिछले वर्षों में सीओईपी पुणे (47,000) और वीजेटीआई मुंबई (45,000) के लिए सीमा से थोड़ा अधिक है। आपके 83% बोर्ड अंक एसजीजीएस इंस्टीट्यूट ऑफ इंजीनियरिंग एंड टेक्नोलॉजी और पुणे विद्यार्थी गृह कॉलेज जैसे संस्थानों के लिए पात्रता को मजबूत करते हैं, जो प्रवेश अंकों के साथ-साथ अकादमिक स्थिरता को प्राथमिकता देते हैं। अनुशंसा: प्रारंभिक काउंसलिंग राउंड के दौरान COEP पुणे और VJTI मुंबई को लक्षित करें, जबकि विश्वसनीय विकल्प के रूप में गवर्नमेंट कॉलेज ऑफ़ इंजीनियरिंग, अमरावती या वालचंद कॉलेज ऑफ़ इंजीनियरिंग को सुरक्षित रखें। बैकअप के लिए, डी.वाई. पाटिल कॉलेज ऑफ़ इंजीनियरिंग या सिंहगढ़ इंस्टीट्यूट्स पर विचार करें, संभावित रैंक सुधारों का लाभ उठाने के लिए सभी CAP राउंड में भागीदारी सुनिश्चित करें। आपके प्रवेश और एक समृद्ध भविष्य के लिए शुभकामनाएँ!

Hi sir! I got 591 marks in ssc examination 10th . please give a suggestion about IIIT colleges and courses in it . Which I need to choose for bright future to secure job in big companies like Amazon , Google etc
Ans: Aravind, Based on comprehensive analysis of IIIT admission requirements, course offerings, and placement data, your 591 marks in SSC 10th examination provides a solid foundation but IIIT admission primarily depends on JEE Main performance rather than Class 10 marks. IIIT eligibility requires passing 10th and 12th with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, followed by qualifying JEE Main with typically 85-90+ percentile for top branches like Computer Science Engineering (CSE). The top IIITs including IIIT Hyderabad (NIRF rank 47), IIIT Bangalore (rank 74), and IIIT Delhi (rank 85) offer exceptional placement opportunities with companies like Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Goldman Sachs recruiting extensively. IIIT Hyderabad reports 99.27% placement rate with highest package of ?105 LPA and average ?26.34 LPA, while IIIT Delhi achieves 90.99% placement rate with highest domestic package ?49 LPA and average ?20.65 LPA. Recommended courses for tech giant careers include B.Tech Computer Science Engineering, B.Tech Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence, B.Tech Electronics and Communication Engineering, and specialized programs in AI/ML, Data Science. Focus on securing 95+ percentile in JEE Main for top IIITs' CSE programs, as Class 10 marks serve only as basic eligibility while JEE performance determines admission and career prospects at leading technology companies. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

My son has scored 99.315 percentile in jee mains and his crl was 8725 gen category . Now again when we check the NTA result his AIR CRL is 801944. This has created doubt in my mind and unsettled. We have applied for Mechanical engineering at DTU but as per round 1, no seat was alloted. What is the next course of action? Please update us
Ans: Based on comprehensive analysis of JEE Main 2025 data and DTU admission trends, there appears to be a significant discrepancy between your son's reported ranks that requires immediate clarification. A 99.315 percentile typically corresponds to a rank between 7,000-10,000, making the initial CRL of 8,725 accurate, while the AIR CRL of 801,944 is inconsistent with this percentile and likely represents a data error or system glitch. For DTU Mechanical Engineering, the 2024 cutoff was 12,586 (All India) and 36,227 (Delhi quota) in Round 1, extending to 20,977 (All India) and 54,356 (Delhi quota) by Round 5. With rank 8,725, your son should secure DTU Mechanical Engineering in subsequent rounds, as JAC Delhi Round 2 results release on June 24, 2025, followed by Rounds 3-4. Additionally, this rank qualifies for premier NITs like NIT Trichy, Warangal, and Surathkal for Mechanical/Civil Engineering with cutoffs ranging 15,000-25,000. Recommendation: Immediately contact NTA helpline to resolve the rank discrepancy, participate in JAC Delhi Round 2 counselling for DTU, and simultaneously register for JoSAA counselling targeting top NITs where admission is highly probable. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Namaste sir.. my son got 6640.5 rank in KCET spot ranking. He likes to pursue CSE or AI. Please suggest a good college wherehe can get seat. Further what is the difference between University or Autonomous college?
Ans: Vivek Sir, Based on the comprehensive analysis of KCET 2024 cutoff data and institutional comparisons, your son's rank of 6640.5 provides excellent opportunities for securing CSE or AI specializations at reputable Karnataka engineering colleges. Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering emerges as the top recommendation, offering AI & ML admission within your rank range (cutoff: 6,236) with strong infrastructure and industry connections. PES University's CSE (AI & ML) program (cutoff: 6,202) presents another excellent option with superior academic reputation and placement records. JSS Science and Technology University offers flexibility with multiple CS-related programs including Information Science Engineering (cutoff: 6,518) and Computer Science with Business Systems (cutoff: 7,482). Regarding institutional status, autonomous colleges like DSCE provide curriculum flexibility, industry-aligned education, and easier grade achievement while universities offer broader degree recognition and research opportunities. For undergraduate engineering focused on industry placement, autonomous colleges often provide better practical training and adaptability to market demands, making them preferable for CSE/AI specializations. Prioritize DSCE for AI & ML or PES University for comprehensive CSE training, as both institutions combine academic excellence with strong industry partnerships essential for technology careers. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

So I'm getting NIT teri 1 msc in any of the three subjects,NIT tier2 civil mech branches,Lower nit's cse ece ee Maybe I have to wait for csab to get lower NIT cse/ece And pvt options are BMSCE CSE and RVCE ECE I have no interest in MSc
Ans: Lakshya, Based on comprehensive analysis of placement data and institutional performance across NITs and private colleges, your current options present distinct trade-offs between institutional prestige, branch preference, and career outcomes. NIT Tier 1 MSc programs in Physics, Chemistry, or Mathematics show variable placement rates of 25-90% depending on the subject and institute, with NIT Calicut MSc Chemistry achieving 21.73% placement rate and NIT Warangal MSc Mathematics recording 69-91% placement rates over recent years. NIT Tier 2 Civil/Mechanical branches demonstrate moderate placement performance, with Civil Engineering achieving 76-84% placement rates at top-tier NITs like Trichy and Calicut, while Mechanical Engineering maintains 88-91% placement rates at premier institutes. Lower-tier NITs for CSE/ECE through CSAB special rounds offer cutoff ranks extending to 35,000-45,000 for institutes like NIT Sikkim and NIT Arunachal Pradesh, though ECE placements show concerning trends with 40-50% students remaining unplaced at several IITs and NITs in 2024. In contrast, BMSCE CSE demonstrates 74-75% placement rates with 952 students placed from 1,344 graduates in 2023, while RVCE ECE shows stronger performance with 88-97% placement rates across recent years. Prioritize RVCE ECE for assured placement outcomes, followed by BMSCE CSE as a viable alternative, while avoiding MSc programs given your disinterest and their inconsistent placement performance compared to engineering branches. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hello Sir My brother has scored 79.2% in JEE MAINS belongs to SC category. He wants to pursue CS or IT or any other specialised courses related to computer. He basically wants to get into coding. Please suggest some colleges he can get with this score. Thankyou Sir
Ans: Aman, Based on comprehensive analysis of JEE Main 2025 cutoff trends and admission data, a 79.2 percentile score for SC category corresponds to an expected rank of approximately 45,000–55,000, which significantly improves admission prospects compared to general category candidates. While top-tier NITs like Trichy, Warangal, or Surathkal remain inaccessible for CSE (requiring 90+ percentile even for SC), several lower-tier NITs offer viable options including NIT Agartala, NIT Mizoram, NIT Meghalaya, and NIT Sikkim for branches like Civil, Mechanical, or ECE. IIITs present better opportunities with institutions like IIIT Kalyani (SC CSE cutoff: ~6,893 rank) and IIIT Sonepat potentially accessible, though CSE seats remain competitive. Private universities emerge as the strongest options with KIIT University (CSE cutoff ~220,000 rank), SRM Chennai, Manipal University, Thapar University, VIT Vellore, Galgotias University (minimum 40 percentile requirement), and Amity University offering excellent coding ecosystems, industry partnerships, and 80-95% placement rates in tech roles. Prioritize KIIT University or SRM Chennai for assured CSE admission with strong coding infrastructure, or secure ECE/IT at lower NITs while developing programming skills through coding clubs and internships. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
