I am sure that I can score 250 in my next attempt.

  • Hello Harshit,
    162 is considerably good score in JEE Mains and LPU provides a very good scholarship amount also on this score as well. Otherwise, for this year admissions are closed. For the next year, I would suggest you to prepare hard to get 250 or more than that and if you will get this score, you can get admission in IITs and even in LPU, you will be able to fetch maximum amount of scholarship as for this year on this score it was 1.5 lac per annum, also the placements are really good.
    Good luck.

    That is a nice score. You can go for NIT, don't drop your precious year. Most of NIT's are better than LPU.

    Hi,
    162 is a good score to get admission into the lower NITs. I would suggest you take admission into a college without dropping a year because a gap year can be more harmful later on than a low JEE main score.
