Question by AMIT on Feb 18, 2025Hindi

My daughter scored 99.26 percentile in 2025 mains first session. What are the chances for her in top NITs

Ans: Amit Sir, Congratulations to your daughter on achieving a remarkable 99.26 percentile in her JEE Main examination! This accomplishment opens up numerous opportunities for her in esteemed institutions. To determine which National Institutes of Technology (NITs) and branches she might be eligible for, consider the following steps:
Identify Preferred Branches: Discuss with your daughter to understand her interests and preferred engineering disciplines. Check JoSAA Opening and Closing Ranks of 2024: The Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) provides detailed information on the opening and closing ranks for various institutes and branches. To access this information: Visit the official JoSAA website. Navigate to the "eServices" section and select "Opening and Closing Ranks 2024". Input the desired parameters such as counseling round (preferably the last round for comprehensive data), institute type (e.g., NIT), specific institute names, academic programs (branches), and your daughter's category. Review the displayed data to identify institutes and branches that align with her percentile and preferences. For a broader perspective, consider exploring opening and closing ranks from previous years, which can provide insights into trends and help set realistic expectations. While her current score is commendable, it's prudent to have alternative options. Encourage her to appear for additional entrance examinations to keep multiple pathways open. All the Best for your Daughter's Prosperous Future.
