JEE stands for Joint Entrance Examination. It has two stages JEE Main and JEE Advanced. JEE Main is the first stage of this exam. Its rank is the basis for admission in government engineering colleges like NITs, IIITs and other central and state government engineering colleges.

Your aim should be to get a rank below 5000 for admission in NIT in Odisha or any other colleges which is run by government. Better is rank, more better is chance of getting admission in top engineering colleges.
