Thanks a lot for your immediate reply sir. I will think again and make a decision wisely.

Ans: Hello dear.
Your chances in NIT/IIIT/GFTI are slim through JoSAA, but you should try CSAB special rounds or state counseling for a seat.

Good luck.

Ans: Hello dear.
Yes, you are still eligible for JEE Mains 2026 because the eligibility criteria allow candidates to appear for JEE three consecutive years after passing Class 12, regardless of previous attempts. However, for admission to NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs, you need at least 75% in boards (65% for SC/ST). Since you have 68%, you won’t be eligible for these top institutes through JEE Main unless you improve your board marks via improvement exams, but private colleges or state counseling options will still be available.

Suggestion:
Better to take admission to any preferred private college with a choice of branch to save time, money, and an extra year. There is no guarantee of success after taking a drop. Taking a drop can create stress and headaches. The final decision will be yours.


Good luck.

You have a chance of getting IT, AIML, ALDS, or CS+Cyber Security @ Thakur College, but CSE might be challenging.

Good luck.

Prefer CS @ SPIT if possible. However, considering the brand name, BITS Hyderabad has more advantage because it is a dual degree. If your interest is focused on research, then go with BITS; otherwise, choose SPIT. The final decision will be yours.

Good luck.

Ans: Hello dear.
LPU, Chandigarh University, or SRM (Amaravati/Delhi-NCR) are good options for BTech CSE.

Ans: Hello Naitik
Chances with newly formed, i.e. low-tier NITs are there. But CSE is not possible.

Good luck.

Ans: Hello dear.
Prefer CSE @ IIIT Guahati, which is better than ECE at IIITDM Jabalpur or AI/Data Science at NIT Patna. The final decision will be yours.

Good luck.

Ans: Hello Prasanna
CSE at Manipal Bengaluru is the best choice among the alternatives mentioned. Based on the home state quota, you can expect VJTI, and with other states, the chances are lower with VJTI and COEP.


Good luck.
