hello aspirant,

Qualifying Cut off or minimum percentile to write jee advanced changes every year due to many factors like:total students appearing for exam,difficulty level of exam,reservations,total seats available for admission,previous year cutoff trends etc

but based on previous year data and trends the minimum qualifying percentiles are as follows:

gen:90-95

gen ews-70-75

obc ncl-70-75

sc-50-55

st-40-45

pwd-1-2

get the cutoffs at:

based on previous year cutoffs you will qualify jeemains to write jee advanced.

hope this helps,

thankyou.
