Can I get any branch in NIT Goa, Jaipur, or Delhi if my JEE Mains rank is 180k (I am in the general category)?
It's nearly impossible to get any branch in any of the colleges mentioned above. The colleges mentioned above are all NITs in particular NIT Goa, NIT Jaipur, and NIT Delhi.
None of the NITs open admission for the rank of around 180k so it would be better if you should prepare well and appear for the exam in the next year or take admission in any private college. There's no chance that any NIT would offer admission for 180k rank.
Can I get admission in the second year of B.Tech. in computer science?
No, lateral entry, or direct second-year admission, is not available at NIT Agartala for B.Tech computer science or any other subject. Like all other NITs, NIT Agartala only admits students for the first year of B.Tech through JEE Main and then JoSAA counselling.
NITs do not offer lateral entry (after diploma). The facility is typically available at private and state-level colleges, but not at NITs or other central government institutions.
Colleges like Tripura Institute of Technology (TIT), Agartala, which offers lateral entry B.Tech after diploma, or any state technical university that accepts lateral entry through LEET or state-level entrance exams are options for diploma holders.
