Hi aspirant...!

Hope you're doing great...!

So, with regard of you're query. Based on the recent pattern of a few years, candidates need to achieve at least 101 to 110 marks to reach the  96-97 percentile. However, because the range of possible marks vary for different sessions, this is only a rough estimate. It will entirely depend on how difficult the question paper turns out to be, how many students show up for the exam, and how well they perform in that exam, as normalization varies. If you're willing to be on safe side. then I will prefer you to score at least 155-185 marks.

I am providing you a link below, so you can check the marks VS percentile.

Hello Aspirant,

See it is quite difficult to tell you an exact figure of your percentile because it keeps on changing every year depending upon various factors but yes we can help you with approximate figures on the basis of analysis of previous year's data. 

So If we go through the analysis of marks Vs Percentile Vs rank for JEE-Main 2021 then according to the percentile mentioned by you in the question your percentile is expected to be in the range of 140-150 out off 300 marks.

You can check out marks Vs CRL ranks Vs Percentile from the link given below :-
