hey there ,

in order to qualify for jee advance ,one must score 5.0 percentage in each subject according to the latest scheme.

For SC category min percentage required to clear the cutoff is 17.5 aggregate and 5.0 per subject i.e PCM

Well as per the new pattern you need to score above 65 marks as aggregate and atleast 5 marks per subject ,

according to it you will be qualified for the same,

The cutoffs for iit's are quite high so we can't predict that right now,since the advance result is yet to be declared.

i will suggest please wait for the results,

All the best!

Hello!

According to your marks may be you will clear the cutoff.But clearing the cutoff is not necessary  criteria to get iit.If your category rank comes under 10000 then you will get admission in iit.You can predict rank and college in our career 360 jee advanced rank predictor.

Hi Aspirant,

Your percentile is 90.6 approximately and the rank must bearound 1,20,000. 

With this rank and SC Quota, you can get into some NIT with a little compromisation in branch. And if only IIT, then you can try for M.Sc Integrated course, etc. Also try some other NITs with a good branch in which you have interest. Only getting into an IIT should not be the priority as per my opinion.

All the best.
