Will 98 Percentile in JEE Main 2024 guarantee admission to top NITs under HS quota?
Know here if 98 is a good percentile in JEE Mains 2024 for NIT Home State quota admission or not. An analysis of the NITs and branches that can be expected through the HS quota at the 98 percentile is provided here.
Top NIT admission chances for 98 Percentile in JEE Main 2024: The cutoff ranks through the HS quota are usually lower compared to that of the Open State quota. However, the HS quota only applies to candidates selected for the NIT in their state. The ranks from 98 to 99 percentile are expected to vary from AIR 24,000 to AIR 12,000, hence it can easily be said to be a good percentile for NIT admission. Accordingly creating an analysis from last year’s cutoff data, listed below are the NITs and their respective branches where candidates between 98 to 99 percentile scores are likely to get admission. The expected closing ranks are also provided.
98 Percentile in JEE Main 2024: Expected NITs with Courses under HS Quota
The following NITs and their respective branches are likely to be available from the 98 to 99 percentile are given in the table below. Do note that these values apply only to unreserved, gender-neutral admission category through the HS quota.
