I got 90 in JEE Mains and 77% in Tamil Nadu board exams. I belong to SC category. Will I get any NIT or IIT?

The JEE Mains 2026 is not out till now. The data for 2025 is available for BIT Mesra.

As per the recent BIT Mesra JEE Main cutoff 2025, the round 6 results have been released. Based on the final cutoff for the General AI category, BTech in Computer Science and Engineering closed off at the rank

No, interview round for BSc admission at BIT Mesra is part of BITCHEM which is not required for candidates who are open to pusuing BSc at Birla Institute of Technology, Mesra. Candidates who apply through JEE Main will not be required to appear in BITCHEM.

Candidates wishing to take admission in BTech at IIIT Bhagalpur have to appear in JEE Main. Along with that, candidates also have to participate in JOSAA/ CSAB counselling process. Seat allocation is done when candidates clear cutoff ranks released on the official JoSAA website.

If you are OBC candidate then you can

1) Fill JoSSA — try for NIT Manipur/Nagaland/Mizoram in Civil or Mechanical

4) Apply to NSUT/YMCA — placements rival many NITs
