Sometimes we may overlook the biggest signs that a certain career path is not meant for us. An inability to score well despite giving it your all, or a lack of interest in the subjects, being some.
From an early age, we start setting our goals and start dreaming about life after our achievement. Little do we realize back then, what will we do if we fail to achieve the same. We never tend to make a backup plan for ourselves and land up feeling demoralized or dejected at the end.
Around 13 lakh students appear in JEE Main for around 10 thousand seats in various IITs, which means that 130 students fight for a single seat. This means that around 12 lakh candidates couldn’t make it. If you are one of the 12 lakh candidates who failed to qualify JEE Main this year, there is absolutely nothing to be dejected about! With the increase in the percentage of the reservation quota, it has become even more difficult for the students to clear their Mains with a good percentage. Today, there is a wide variety of options available for you even if you fail to crack your JEE-Mains. So chill and just don’t loose hope. Here are some suggestions
If not IIT you can get into many other NIT , Centrally funded colleges to various engineering branches. Mentioned below are some universities offering admission through JEE Main scores:
Jamia Millia Islamia, New Delhi Thapar Institute of Engineering Bangalore and Technology, Patiala Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU), New Delhi and many more.

There are many state engineering exams such as
You can get admission into a good private college. College like BITS PILANI are great and have their own entrance exams. Even AMITY and many more. Well you shouldn’t be underestimating these colleges.
Fun fact- Satya nadella CEO of Microsoft got his bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from Manipal institute.
IIT doesn’t matter.
What matters is your innovative mind and devotion to engineering.
If you still feel that engineering is your blood and soul, and there is no other career you would rather pursue, then consider taking a drop year.
However, your reasons have to be logical and strong. Many students take a year drop without vision, only to end up wasting an additional year of their lives.
Realistically evaluate your chances of clearing of the JEE exam if you do take the drop:
Was the margin by which you missed the cut-off minor or significant?
Did you give the exam your best shot this time?
Can you sustain your motivation for the duration of the entire year of preparation?
Carefully think over these questions and decide if you have the right ability and patience for a second attempt at the JEE. If you have both, then there is no reason to not give it a try again.
There are multiple courses that you could look out for, that are related to science and mathematics.
Courses such as BCA (Computer Applications), B.Arch (Architecure), B.Sc. Aviation (with Commercial Pilot training), B.Sc. Nautical Science (Merchant Navy training), B.Des. in Industrial/Product Design, B.FTech (Fashion Technology) etc. are all options that branch out from Science. Moreover, they provide some professional expertise for you to give your career a boost.
You won’t be needing any extra preparations for these entrance exams as they mostly have the concepts already included in your JEE preparation.

Explore more career options which interest you. Research and research about your different interests and also the careers.
Beyond your research, take out the time to talk to people who know more about the fields you wish to explore – college students pursuing the course, professionals in that field, even career counsellors.
If you really think science is your cup of tea and most importantly if you are interested in both biology and maths then why not take up both. This will give you more opportunities. You can appear for NEET and also JEE.
Engineering and IIT are two dreams many Indian students nurture. There is no harm in harbouring this dream, I say, if you have the right vision of your longer-term goal. Don’t be a part of the “Everyone is doing it, so why not me?” herd, and take the time to evaluate if Engineering is the right fit for you . You never know what happens.
The best way to predict your future is to CREATE it.
