Hello,

There is no minimum percentage requirement to be eligible to apply for JEE Main. You must have passed 10+2 or its equivalent with Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry from a recognized board to appear for JEE Main. Candidates appearing in 10+2 or its examination are also eligible to apply for JEE Main.

If you are seeking admission in to a private institute accepting JEE Main you need to fulfill the eligibility criteria specified by the institute in which you are seeking admission and the eligibility criteria is different for each institute. So please check the eligibility criteria that is specified by the institute to be eligible before applying for admission.

Based on our JEE Main College predictor tool results which is based on previous year data, with 88 percentile score your overall rank is in between 122760 - 138000.  The cut off for the institutes accepting JEE Main score varies, so it is quite difficult to predict if you can get seat in Computer Science Engineering in a decent institute. A safe score would be in between 92-95 percentile or above. SO you should aim to score minimum 92-95 percentile or above in JEE Main to have decent chances of getting seat in CSE. Cut off is determined by the number of candidates applied for counselling, total number of seats available, category of the candidate etc.
