I’m not a topper or standout student, just fairly average overall. Is it still realistic to get placed in good companies, or do they mostly prefer only top performers?

Yes, average students absolutely can get placed in good companies. This happens more often than people think.
Most companies don’t hire based on toppers or rankers alone. They look for students who have clear basics, can solve problems logically, and can communicate well. Being consistent and prepared matters much more than being exceptional on paper.
I’ve seen many average students do well by following a structured approach. Practicing DSA regularly, revising interview patterns, and preparing company-style questions makes a big difference. Platforms like PlacementPreparation.io help here because they focus on realistic placement-level questions instead of random practice.
You don’t need to be extraordinary. You need to be steady, well-prepared, and confident. That’s enough to get into good companies.
