Hey,

Since JEE Mains would be conducted twice from this year,so the final merit list would be declared only after the second exam that is going to be held in April

Those who took the exam in January just know of their percentile and ranks would be known only after the completion of second exam.

So as of now,nothing can be said about the number of sc candidates eligible for JEE Advance 2019. It also depends on the number of candidates appearing to JEE Mains this year.

Hello Vivek,

I would like to tell you that for the selection for candidates for JEE ADVANCED , from the SC category around 33,000 students are eligible.

I woud suggest you to visit the careers360's link given below which has more detailed explanation of the reservation for JEE ADVANCED.

All the best!
