No, there is no chance to get into IIT without JEE. You have to qualify JEE Mains and advance with a very good rank for taking admission in IIT. So, if you want to get into IIT, then you can take a drop, and then qualify the exam. Or, you can GET into any private college. Good luck.

Sorry, you will not be able to get IITs or NITs, as you have not cleared JEE Mains. But, you can get private Colleges. Or, if you have appeared the state level Engineering entrance Exam, then maybe you can get engineering. Or, you can go for other courses than Engineering.

It is not possible. Only class 12% will not help you to get Government College. Write competitive exams.
