Hello aspirant,

Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) provide BTech admission to candidates who qualify JEE (Joint Entrance Examination) Advanced, on the basis of IIT cut off.

JEE Advanced Qualifying Marks.

Rank List    Minimum marks in each subject    Minimum aggregate.

Common rank list (CRL)    12-126

OBC-NCL rank list    11-114

SC rank list    6-63.

JEE Main 2020 is conducted by the NTA (National Testing Agency) twice a year: first time in January and second in April (In September this year due to COVID-19), for admissions to the NITs, IIITs & GFTIs. Till 2018, the exam was being held by CBSE. The exam is also the first stage of IIT admission process. JEE Advanced is the second stage of this process for candidates seeking admission to the 23 IITs in India. Every year around 10 lakh candidates appear for the exam aspiring for IIT admission. But, only the top 2.5 lakh JEE Main qualifiers are allowed to appear for JEE Advanced examination.

Hope this is helpful for you.

All the best.

Dear Aspirant,

See the exam pattern and total marks of JEE  Advanced changes every year, one comes to know about it only on the exam day.So it's  quite difficult to predict beforehand the  marks required to get into any IIT for any category.

From the previous year records of JEE Advanced marks and ranking , it has been observed that for a general category student  a score of 40-45% of total marks of JEE Advanced paper has good chances of getting a seat into IIT.

So considering SC category , a score of 45% of total marks of JEE advanced paper might help getting a seat in old IITs.
