Nizam College is a very reputed college and the marks required to get a seat in this college is generally very high. But if you have scored 97% then you have a very good chance of getting admission even if you are a non-local candidate. 

But for the local candidates, there are only 15% of the seats available and even foreign students are applying to this college. The competition from foreign students would be more as they are likely to pay 10-20 times higher fees if they get a seat. 

Apart from academics, you will get the chance to grow in extracurricular aspects including sports, NCC, NGO, and many more.
