I scored 75%ile sc category what could be my options

Ans: Hi
Your percentile is on the lower side for top NITs, but you might get lower branches (like Biotechnology, Metallurgy, Production Engineering) in newer or lower-ranked NITs.
Some NITs where you might have a chance:
NIT Mizoram
NIT Meghalaya
NIT Nagaland
NIT Arunachal Pradesh
NIT Sikkim
NIT Agartala.

You might get admission in IIITs in newer campuses for branches like ECE, IT, or lesser preferred ones.

Many state-level engineering colleges have seats for SC candidates through state counseling.
Some state universities and private colleges accept JEE Mains scores. Check your state’s engineering counseling process.

Some reputed private colleges accept JEE Main scores and also provide SC category scholarships.
