Hello aspirant,

Candidates must have passed the JEE mains test (Paper 1) and rank in the top 2,50,000 (across all categories) in order to be considered. You passed with ease because the SC category cutoff for JEE Advanced qualifying is approximately 62 %.

Thank you

Hello,

With an 87.5 percentile in JEE Main and belonging to the SC category, you are eligible for JEE Advanced.

  • The expected cutoff for SC candidates is around 65 percentile.
  • Your percentile exceeds this threshold, making you eligible.
  • Ensure you meet other criteria, such as age limit and number of attempts.

Wishing you the best !
