With a JEE Mains percentile of 78 and an SC category rank of 19800, you might have a chance to get admission into several NITs and IIITs. Here are some options based on previous years’ data:NIT Meghalaya: The opening rank for Mechanical Engineering was around 88,563.NIT Goa: The rank range for Mechanical Engineering was approximately 75,025 to 114,874.NIT Sikkim: The rank range for Mechanical Engineering was approximately 78,672 to 162,246.NIT Arunachal Pradesh: The opening rank for Mechanical Engineering was around 74,097.NIT Puducherry.NIT Mizoram.Please note that these are just estimates based on previous years’ data, and the actual cutoffs may vary each year depending on various factors such as the difficulty level of the exam, number of applicants, etc. It’s always a good idea to check the official JEE Mains website or the respective college websites for the most accurate and up-to-date information. Good luck with your admissions.

The least rank to get a seat through JoSAA or CSAB counselling can vary greatly depending on the course and the institute. However, here are some general observations:For JoSAA counselling, candidates can get admission in NITs, IIITs, IITs, and GFTIs1. While admission is possible up to a 3 Lacs rank in JEE Main, securing admission in popular NITs and B.Tech specializations is limited for a low rank in JEE Main (above 1,00,000).After the conclusion of six rounds of JoSAA counselling, two special rounds are conducted by CSAB (Central Seat Allocation Board) for the vacant seats1. The list of vacant seats shall be displayed in advance so that the candidates can plan college options and participate in the counselling process.Please note that these are approximate figures and the actual cutoff may vary each year based on several factors such as the difficulty level of the JEE Main exam, number of applicants, number of seats available, and the category of the candidate.For the most accurate information, I recommend checking the official JoSAA or CSAB websites during the admission season as they release the category-wise opening and closing ranks after each round of counselling.Check out this article for more details: Best Colleges for Low JEE Main Rank/Scores
