JEE Main 2026 exam aspirants must strategise their preparation effectively to score good marks. Below are some helpful preparation tips for JEE Main 2026.
NTA will issue the JEE Main admit card 2026 to the registered candidates on the official website. JEE Mains admit card is an important document, without which, the candidates won't be allowed to enter the examination hall. The JEE Main 2026 admit card will consist of all the important information such as exam date and time, centre address, guidelines, and more. Follow the steps mentioned below for quickly download the NTA JEE Mains admit card.
NTA will declare the JEE Main result for the upcoming session on the official website, for each session separately. A candidate's JEE Main scorecard will comprise the percentile score obtained in each subject. For candidates appearing in both sessions, the best score of the two will be considered for the final result and All India Rank. Candidates can follow the steps mentioned below for JEE Main result download.
Aspirants preparing for JEE Main 2026 must attempt the previous year question paper for the preparation of the test. Attempting the JEE Main question paper will help to get familiar with the exam difficulty level, distributions of marks, and weightage of topics. Moreover, candidates can self-assess their performance. NTA will release the official JEE Main 2026 question paper online.

Hello Gautam,
No, diploma holders cannot apply for NDA (National Defence Academy) admissions as the NDA only allows candidates who have completed 10+2 with Physics and Mathematics. For JEE Mains and Advanced diploma holders can attempt JEE Advanced (for IITs), but not JEE Mains. They are eligible to get admission into NITs by JEE Advanced.
Also, Diploma holders would not qualify for admission to NITs from JEE Mains also as NITs admission is based on 10+2 qualifications, not diploma. If you are a diploma holder, your best way should be lateral entry schemes like LEET (Lateral Entry Entrance Test) to secure admission into B.Tech in 2nd year at other engineering colleges, not IITs or NITs.
With an 85.4824 percentile in JEE Main and eligibility under the North East quota (EWS category), you have a decent chance of getting into SOE Tezpur's Mechanical or Civil Engineering branches, though it may depend on the specific round and seat availability.
Here’s what the recent cutoff trends suggest:

2024 Closing Rank (General category, All India quota): Around 185140 for North East quota, the cutoff tends to be more relaxed, especially for reserved categories like EWS
Civil Engineering :
2024 Closing Rank (General category, All India quota): Around 209876 again, NE quota + EWS reservation could work in your favor
Since your percentile roughly translates to a rank near 140,000–160,000, you're within striking range, especially for Civil Engineering. Mechanical might be slightly tighter, but still possible depending on the round.

With a JEE Main percentile of 51 and an OBC-NCL rank around 2.8 lakh admission to NITs, IIITs, or GFTIs is not possible, as these institutes usually require an OBC rank below 50,000. However, you can still explore state-level counseling where some government colleges accept higher ranks. Private universities like SRM, VIT, or Amity also offer good programs and may admit students with moderate scores. Alternatively, you can consider B.Sc. courses such as Cardiology or Computer Science through CUET, where cutoffs are generally more accessible. If you've determined to get into top colleges, taking a drop year to prepare and reattempt JEE is also a valid option.
