JEE Main Question Papers & Answer keys (2014-2016)

With a 79.57 percentile in JEE Mains 2025 under the SC category, your chances of getting into a top NIT or IIIT are relatively low. Typically, you'd need a percentile score of at least 90-92 to have decent chances of getting into an NIT or IIIT.

However, there are some NITs and IIITs that may consider your score. Here are a few examples:

- NIT Mizoram: Civil Engineering (closing rank around 8376 in the SC category)

- NIT Nagaland: Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering (closing rank around 8641 in the SC category)

- NIT Agartala*l: Production Engineering (closing rank around 9207 in the SC category)

Keep in mind that these cutoffs are based on previous years' data and may vary for the 2025 session.To get a better idea of your chances, I recommend using a JEE Main college predictor tool.

Additionally, you may also consider private engineering colleges that accept JEE Main scores. Some examples include:

- Bengal College of Engineering and Technology, Durgapur

- Aditya College of Technology and Science, Satna

- Oriental College of Technology, Bhopal

Yes, as a JEE aspirant, you can fill up the HSC Form No. 17 to appear for the 12th exam in 2026 as a private candidate, provided your state board allows it. Key points to remember:

• Form 17 is for private candidates:

This form is specifically designed for students who want to appear for the HSC exam privately, not attending a regular college.

• Eligibility check:

Ensure you meet the eligibility criteria set by your state board regarding age and previous academic qualifications to appear as a private candidate.

• Impact on JEE:

Filling the Form 17 will not affect your eligibility for the JEE exam as long as you are appearing for the 12th standard examination recognized by the JEE authorities in 2026.

• Check deadlines:

Be aware of the deadlines for submitting the Form 17 as they vary depending on your state board.

Hello,

Here is an overview :-

• UGEE SUPR Section: The SUPR (Subject Proficiency) section tests conceptual understanding. While BITSAT-style questions (speed and accuracy-based) help, you must also focus on JEE Advanced-level conceptual problems, as UGEE questions are deeper.

• UGEE Hope: An 85 percentile in JEE Main is not ideal, but UGEE focuses on understanding rather than just speed. If you improve problem-solving, logic, and reasoning , you have a good chance.

• Preparation Strategy: Revise JEE concepts thoroughly, solve Olympiad, JEE Advanced, and past UGEE questions for best results.

• Interview Round: UGEE includes an interview. Strengthen your fundamentals and communication for success.
