Dear Student, 

With 51 percentile marks in JEE Main 2025, it is unlikely that you will get any government college for engineering. If you belong to a reserve category, then you can wait for the supernumerary seats. However, we suggest you not wait for the supernumerary seats and go for private colleges or take the second attempt to score a better percentile. Stay tuned to CollegeDekho for the latest updates related to the JEE Mains and JEE Advanced exams. All the best for your future!
