Hello Aspirant,

Hope you are doing well

To get seat in IITs you need to clear the Entrance e4xam for admission. You have to clear the JEE Advanced Exam with good Score. JEE Advanced exam is one of the toughest exam. For JEE Advanced you need to clear the JEE Mains Exam. Students who want to get admission in courses other than B.Tech have so many options to enter IITs. These options are :-  you need to clear the other exam like :- GATE, GATE Exam for taking admission in M.tech. JAM, CAT, CSIR NET.

Hello,

You haven't mentioned the course. Based on the information available in your profile we consider that you are an Engineering aspirant in class 12th. To get admission to B.E/B.Tech in Indian Institute is Technology (IITs) you need to appear for JEE Advanced. A candidate can appear for JEE Advanced for 2 consecutive years from the year of passing in the qualifying exam that is class 12th. For instance if you have passed class 12th in the year 2020 you can appear for JEE Advanced 2020 and JEE Advanced 2021 only. To appear for JEE Advanced you need to appear in JEE Main and qualify in it. Every year the qualifying cut off percentile for JEE Main changes depending on the total number of candidates appeared, difficulty level of exam and number of seats available etc. In 2020 the qualifying cut off percentile for JEE Main was as follows

  • General:90.3765335
  • OBC-NCL:72.8887969
  • EWS:70.2435518
  • SC:50.1760245
  • ST:39.0696101
  • PWD:0.0618524

You also need to score the cut off rank that is specified by a particular IIT. Each year the cut of frank also changes depending on the above mentioned factors. To check the JEE Advanced cut off click on the link below
