Hello,


In order to get into NITs, IIITs and CFTIs, it's compulsory for candidates to have obtained a minimum of 75% aggregate marks or be in the top 20 percentile of their respective boards. For SC/ST category, a minimum of 65% marks required.


They should have been taken at least five subjects for the 12th class or qualifying exam (Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics compulsory


It is important that they must have passed their class 12 examination in 2018 or 2019. Only three consecutive attempts are allowed for JEE Main.
