Hello aspirant,

Hope you are doing fine.

Now, take a look at the analysis below: The general category cut-off for JEE Main 2020 has dipped to 70.24 from 89 which is a significant 18.76-marks decrease. As for the OBC/SC/ST categories, the decrease in cut-off marks for the same year has been 1.12, 3.83, and 4.94 marks respectively.

NCERT books explain all the topics in a more detailed way so that the students understand and perform well in the exam. JEE Main toppers and experts also recommend NCERT for JEE Main preparation. According to experts, studying NCERT is enough to qualify JEE Main.

B.Tech/B.Arch Admissions OPEN

Apply to VIT - VITEEE 2026

The tentative qualifying marks for GEN category students is 89.75 for GEN (EWS category) is 78.21, for OBC-NCL is 74.31, for SC is 54, 44 for ST & 0.11371730 for PWD candidates.

In some states like Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Bihar, the B.Tech admission process is on the basis of JEE Main score, and chances of getting admission are high for a percentile range of 60 to 70. Candidates will need to participate in the state-level counselling process to secure admission.

Hope this is useful for you.

Thank you

hi,

see at the time of counselling your jee main and 12th score both will be evaluated.

however your jee main score is not very promising, based on careers360 rank predictor tool your overall probable rank would be 265980 - 299000 .

at  this score it is difficult to secure a tier 1 private college, so you must prepare well and secure better score in next sessions exam .

now see cutoff score varies every year and depends on the determining factors like number of applicant , questions difficulty level, seat matrix, students category.


To know about complete list of probable college name, based on your score, category please use Careers360 college predictor tool,
