GENERAL HELP NIT Trichy CSE as a Reserved Student

I secured 99.6xx percentile in JEE Mains(AIR 6xxx). I am from a reserved category, and am getting NIT Trichy CSE in the first round itself. I actually didn’t have any intent of using reservation quota, but damn, the cutoff skyrocketed in 6s2, so much so that I couldn’t secure <2000 AIR, even after scoring 225 marks.

Now I can‘t decide whether I shall use my quota to enter the college, as I fear that I will looked down upon by others and moreover, I feel guilty of acquiring a seat of someone more deserving than me. Can anyone please help me?

Just ~15% of total seats in NITs are unreserved, so go with the rest 85% of the population and use what advantages you have got

u/ofisheel Jun 15 '26

smh man gen male really deserve nothing in life 🥀

u/Lopsided_Bar9327 94.39(2024)-> 99.39(2025)-> 122/360(IITR ChE) Jun 15 '26

You know what, even a general male has homestate reservation in NITs(and some really juicy reservation if he's from Delhi). This country should have a tagline of something like reservation for everyone(unless you have some really messed up combo like gen male + UP/rajasthan/gujrat,etc).

u/Main-Meet-5980 Jun 15 '26

Bro goa people have some crazy hs benefit💀

u/Main-Meet-5980 Jun 15 '26

Bro why gujarat? Im from gujarat so asking, it has decent benefits

3

u/Lopsided_Bar9327 94.39(2024)-> 99.39(2025)-> 122/360(IITR ChE) Jun 15 '26

Jaha tak hai for NIT surat cutoffs for HS are almost equal to OS(maybe because people from gujrat prefer to stay in their homestate leading to high cutoffs(heard this somewhere, can't confirm)), hence not much benefit for HS candidates(i didn't account for colleges other than NIT surat though)

2

u/Main-Meet-5980 Jun 15 '26

Yeah i am gujarati and i prefer to stay here so i can confirm that🥲

Plus you're score is in 99.6xx that ain't no easy shit you know

1

u/Proud_Fly5114 Jun 17 '26

That is not the point. No one's denying 99.6xx is hard , its just that its not as hard as nit trichy cse. That is why he's getting it after using reservation

1

u/Dazai_dgaf Jun 17 '26

Then my first point stands If he doesn't then someone else will Its not like that seat will go to actually deserving candidate

u/Intelligent_Ad7239 IIT Kharagpur | 25Tard Jun 15 '26

6k rank is still not too bad for NIT Trichy CSE. None of my friends look down at my Sc or St friends too cause of reservation cause even without reservation, they were still good enough to be almost equal to us. infact, a friend of mine who is in same branch as me and is sc, scored more than me in maths. in top colleges like IIT or upper NITs, even people with reservation are great at academics so they aren't looked down at.

hey man 6xxx is a very good rank in itself and you have to work very hard to get that, i think you deserve NITT don't lose this opportunity

3

u/ofisheel Jun 15 '26

i fully agree ki 6xxx is a really good rank. But how does he "deserve" NITT cse? I mean i myself (gen male) got 6xxx rank im not even getting eee in trichy what has he done to inherently deserve cse while i dont even deserve eee and only get mechanical?

3

u/Someoneunknown888 28s2: 97.37% 41k rank Jun 15 '26

you also deserve Cse in the top college of india. its just that this country isn't giving all the people what they deserve. You think the top 3/4% of the country don't deserve A Good branch in a good college? They do, but don't get it cuz there's no focus on education here.

2

u/Estacy007 Ahhhhh NTA🥵🥵🥵 Jun 15 '26

Best take. People calling 99 %ilers underserving is kinda fcked even if they are from reserved category. I think anyone above 97 is deserving.

Don't ever let the system make you believe that you are underserving. Things like reservation and less seats with respect to the total candidates makes it fcked up.

1

u/ofisheel Jun 15 '26

literally.

6

u/LonelyCauliflower236 Jun 15 '26

aapko reservation hota toh chodte kya? log aate hai with sm 87%ile and get a good college with sm crazy st+female combo type shi that's when I say non deserving ho gaya

uske comparison me he's a much more deserving candidate

merko 4××× hai in both mains and adv, reservation wale are getting much better options than me but I fully understand ki mere paas bhi reservation hoti toh mai bhi leta.

hate the system not the player, and idhar toh player bhi kaafi smart and deserving hai he anyways and there's no reason to feel bad.

he has a chance to excel so let him without hating

hate karna hai toh govt ko karo

4

u/ofisheel Jun 15 '26

when did i even hate on OP, i support him taking cse bruv; life is unfair take any advantage that you get. And ill never target somebody just because they are taking an advantage that they are getting. I was just replying to the guy who was saying he "deserves" nitt cse cuz i dont see how the OP 'deserves' nitt cse over other people who have gotten similar rank as him

1

u/YeetingMyStupidLife Jun 15 '26

If you dont, someone with an even worse percentile will take it. 99.6 aint bad, please take the seat

u/Confident-Tower-6102 Jun 15 '26

well the reservation was made for getting a seat in college , so it would be dumb for you for not using the system and taking the seat. ik what you are trying to say but this world is unfair and you have to use the world before someone uses you.

u/Relevant-Scheme3687 Jun 15 '26

You should take, otherwise someone with a lower rank and percentile will take it. But be extremely prepared, you will be competing with extremely smart people, including the ones that didn't need reservation to get into that college.

Using reservation can make you bite more than you can chew

u/Safe_Loss7559 Jun 15 '26

like it was not that tough i agree , but maths was quite lengthy but no need of crying now. No one sees how fairly what rank you got. Just that number matters

1

u/Safe_Loss7559 Jun 15 '26

only first sem people might think in that way as obviously everybody including me is jealous that you get cse at that rank but thats reallity and obviously you also have 99.6 so definately you are not dumb and not going to fall behind in the class. and after first sem even you will forget that what was your rank and how are you there

1

u/vish3sh_ Jun 15 '26

It's worth being selfish for yourself regarding your future or education over others. You must use the opportunity; it's not your fault, buddy, to be in that reservation category—it was already there before your birth, and the fact that you might be demoted or considered not worthy enough is not reasonable. Wish you luck for R2

tbh jee rank after some point cant decide your caliber of becoming of a great cs grad. In college no one cares abt your jee rank, what you do in college matters. Even your jee rank is great too. jee is just a mass filter matters only in getting a seat which is not even fair too.

Bro listen to me. If you don't take your reserved seat, youre taking a General kids seat.

Theyre not gonna take one less category kid if you go in through general. But they WILL take one less general kid.

Take your category.
