IIT

Admission to premier institutions like IITs, IIITs, NITs, and DU for engineering or science-related courses typically requires a background in Science stream with subjects like Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. However, there are some alternative pathways you can explore if you have completed your schooling in the arts stream from CBSE and NIOS board:1.Bachelor's Degree in Science: You can consider pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Science from a college or university to fulfill the eligibility criteria for engineering or Science courses in these institutions.2.Diploma Courses: Some institutions offer Diploma courses in Science or engineering-related fields that you can complete to meet the eligibility criteria for higher education in these institutions.4.Entrance Exams: Some institutions may have their own entrance exams that you can appear for to demonstrate your knowledge and skills in Science subjects, even if you have a background in arts.

With your JEE Main 2024 rankings, it is quite improbable that you will be accepted into any of the NITs or IITs. According , the usual range of JEE Main cutoff ranks for admission to NITs is: Generally speaking: 78,000–80,000 EWS division: 73,000–76,000. Your EWS rating of 57,997 and common rank of 377,652 are much below the NIT cutoff values. It is "very tough or nearly impossible" to acquire admission to NITs with a percentile as low as yours, according to the search results.
