Scoring above 360 marks (~700+ weighted marks) is considered excellent and can secure you a rank within the top 100 and study at NIT Trichy or NIT Warangal.

Are there multiple rounds of NIMCET cutoff releases?

Rashmi Karan

Yes. The cutoff (opening and closing ranks) is released after each round of centralised counselling. Typically, there are three primary rounds followed by a special/spot round if seats remain vacant at participating NITs.

Can I qualify for a rank in NIMCET if I score zero in Mathematics?

Rashmi Karan

No. You must secure a positive score in Mathematics; there is no other way around. If you score 0 or minus (because of negative marking) you automatically get disqualified from ranking, irrespective of your score in other sections.

Can I convert my CGPA to a percentage to meet the 60% rule of NIMCET?

Rashmi Karan

No. You cannot manually convert CGPA to percentage or vice-versa to qualify. If your university uses a 10-point scale, a 6.5 CGPA is the minimum requirement for General/OBC candidates.

What is considered a good score in NIMCET?

Rashmi Karan

Here is how you can determine if your NIMCET score is good -

Score	Possible Rank	What This Means
360+	Top 100	Excellent: You can likely pick any top NIT you want, like the popular ones in Trichy or Warangal.
300 - 359	101 - 500	Very Good: You have a high chance of getting into a strong NIT.
240 - 299	501 - 1500	Good Goal: You can likely secure a spot in a mid-tier NIT.
Below 120	Low Chances	Difficult: Getting a seat at any NIT is very unlikely with this score.
