JEE Main 2025: Physics Wallah Scholarship Test Preparation Kit for Class 11 (11 to 12 Moving)

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:

Mechanical Engineering:

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.
All The Best!

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.

Hello Rohit,

Yes, you can apply for JEE Main in 2026 with your diploma. But keep in mind:

1. That JEE Main is for those diploma holders wanting to qualify for JEE Advanced, not direct admission into IITs.
2. That your Class 12 pass-out year (2021) does not stop your JEE Advanced attempts if you are going the diploma route. JEE Advanced allows diploma holders to attempt it. However, the Advaced route is only for admission through clearing JEE Advanced - not through JEE Main ranks.
3. If you clear the JEE Advanced then you can get admission in IITs, but it would be as a first year (1st year B.Tech) - there is no lateral entry for IITs.
4. There shouldn't be any problems with your 12th pass-out year, since diploma holders are considered separately for JEE Advanced eligibility.

• Class 12 Passed in 2022
  You are eligible for JEE Main for three consecutive years : 2022, 2023, and 2024.

• Diploma Completed in 2024
  Completing a diploma does not affect JEE Main eligibility.

• Can You Apply in 2026?
  No. You can apply for JEE Main only up to 2024 based on your Class 12 passing year.
  The diploma doesn’t extend this window.

• Admission Options for Diploma Holders:
  You can appear for JEE Advanced (diploma holders are eligible for IITs via JEE Advanced).
  You can join lateral-entry B.Tech programs (direct admission into 2nd year) in private/state colleges.

• Class 12 Passed in 2022
  You are eligible for JEE Main for three consecutive years : 2022, 2023, and 2024.

• Diploma Completed in 2024
  Completing a diploma does not affect JEE Main eligibility.

• Can You Apply in 2026?
  No. You can apply for JEE Main only up to 2024 based on your Class 12 passing year.
  The diploma doesn’t extend this window.

• Admission Options for Diploma Holders:
  You can appear for JEE Advanced (diploma holders are eligible for IITs via JEE Advanced).
  You can join lateral-entry B.Tech programs (direct admission into 2nd year) in private/state colleges.

Hello Mahitha,

At an 88.57 percentile in JEE Main, a CRL rank of 168000 and an EWS Category rank of 24000, the likelihood of receiving CSE or other top branches in NITs/IIITs through CSAB counseling are almost negligible, especially for general/open category seats. That said, as a female EWS candidate, you may have a few chances in:

• Lower ranked NITs/IIITs (NIT Mizoram, NIT Nagaland, IIIT Una, IIIT Bhagalpur, etc.)
• Non-core branches (Civil, Metallurgy, or Biotechnology)
• Home state quota, if applicable and available at CSAB

Hello Aspirant,

With an All India Rank (AIR) of 145214 and OBC-NCL rank of 48284 with Uttarakhand domicile you have chances of getting admission in College of Technology Pantnagar (COT Pantnagar) through UTU counselling. However this will depend on cut-off trends, seat availability and your branch of choice.

Note that COT Pantnagar fills B.Tech seats through UKSEE/UTU counselling and based on JEE Main scores. Being a Uttarakhand domicile and OBC-NCL category should help you with state quota reservations. If you wish to improve your chances:

1. Apply through UTU counselling.
2. Look for branches that have relatively low cut-offs.
3. Keep under similar colleges in UTU also as backups.

Hello Aspirant,

In JEE Main, questions are mostly conceptual and test your understanding, application, and problem-solving skills in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics.

1.Multiple Choice Questions

2.Numeric Based questions

• Questions are based on Class 11 & 12 syllabus

• Mix of easy, moderate, and difficult levels

• There is also negative marking so you should be aware before answer that questions.

All the best for your examination.

Hello aspirant,
The full form of JEE Mains is Joint Entrance Examination Main, and for JEE Advanced, it is Joint Entrance Examination Advanced. These are national-level engineering entrance exams conducted for admission into top institutes like NITs, IIITs (via JEE Main) and the IITs (via JEE Advanced). JEE Main is the qualifying exam to appear for JEE Advanced.
