Hi


What is your total percentage in 5 subjects?

5 Subjects to be considered for calculating aggregate percentage for jee main are :-


*Physics

*Chemistry

*Mathematics

*A language

*Any subject other than listed above


Anyway,

You are eligible for jee main irrespective of the percentage obtained by you in class 12th provided you should have at least passed 12th. With your 12th passing year in 2021 , you are eligible for jee main 2021 , jee main 2022 and jee main 2023


This is because,

B.Tech/B.Arch Admissions OPEN

Apply to Amity University-Noida B.Tech Admissions 2026

There is no percentage barrier to be eligible for JEE main.

For reference,

JEE main eligibility criteria is provided below:-

Eligibility criteria says that:-

-) Qualification required :- to be eligible  for JEE mains  for BE or Btech you need 10+2/equivalent qualification with Physics,  mathematics as compulsory subject along with anyone of Chemistry or Biology or Biotechnology or Technical Vocational Subject.

-) Passing year :- one is eligible for JEE main examination for consecutive three years starting from the year of appearing for 12th /equivalent examination i. e to be eligible  for JEE mains 2022 you should be either appearing for 12th board exam or equivalent  in 2022 or should have passed it in 2021 or 2020

-) There is no age limit to be eligible

-) there is no minimum percentage requirement to be eligible for JEE Mains, you just need to have passed your 12th

But yes,

To be eligible for NITs, IIITs, CFTIs one needs at least 75% marks in class 12th if belongs to General or OBC category  or at least 65% marks in class 12th if belongs to Sc or St category. For this year i. e 2021 this minimum percentage requirement of 75% - 65 % has been lifted off, but this percentage barrier of 75% - 65 % will be there in 2022 for NITs, IIITs, CFTIs. If your percentage is low than this then you can go for improvement examination
