Hello, I am a dropper going to give the upcoming january jee mains so in the qualifications sections of class 12 should I fill my marks out of 600 or 500 given the fact that I had an additional subject.

Hello,

So, if you had an additional subject in Class 12 and you are going to appear for the JEE Mains exam, report your Class 12 marks out of 600 in the qualifications section. The total marks are considered out of 600 while including that additional subject for JEE Mains.

Accordingly, if you have taken an additional subject as a part of your Class 12 exams, you must ensure that you mention it clearly in the application form. So all marks you obtained including the extra one will be counted out of 600 and accordingly, your percentile will be calculated.

But if you are not familiar with how to do it then it is better to look at the official brochure of JEE Mains for the present guidelines, or contact the helpline for the same.

For more information on eligibility criteria of JEE Mains and its application form, visit the page of JEE Mains on the website of Career 360 and official website of JEE Mains.
