Dear Aspirant,

JEE Mains Paper 1 is of total 300 marks and not 360, paper pattern changed from last year 2020. 230 out of 300 is quite a good score for a good percentile.

There might be something missing , sometimes due to this percentile relative system there are chances of getting low percentile on even high marks.Focus on next JEE attempt.
