If you want to score 99 percentile u need to put in much more extra effort. It is not impossible actually. If u score 99 percentile in jee main u will get admission in top notching nit like nit Warangal nit trichy etc. Jee main marks 100-99.98- 310 to360 and 99.98to99.97- 299. Just like this.it also varies from year to year depending on paper difficulty , cut off , student appeared .hoping for your better future. Thank you

Calbatross Hello rajeshwari jee main 2020 whose tentative date is in September is of 300 marks. But whether it is300 or 360 u need to get that what I have given you as data. Because competition level is increasing day by day So u set your criteria that I have to get 90 percentile or 95 percentile. Don't worry about marks. focus on your preparation u will surely get good marks. Focus on concept rather than remembering all stuff. Smart study is that you look into 2018 questions paper what is asked they will ask questions on same concept again and again they do this every year. Focus on concept don't worry about marks. I hope u understood what I m trying to say.thank you .

But in general you should have minimum 187 marks to get 99 percentile. Click on the link below to know more more about that.Hope this will help you.

Since there will be many shifts, it is possible to give you a clear cut score scoring which you can get 99 percentile. But on an average, you need to score about 195-200 marks to score around 99 percentile in JEE Main. This is for a medium difficulty paper. It will vary depending on the toughness of the question paper.

Hope it helps.
