Hello,

The Delhi state quota helps in JEE Main admissions for colleges in Delhi but not in JEE Mains rank. Here’s how:

  1. 85% Home State Quota – Delhi students get 85% reservation in government colleges like DTU, NSUT, and IGDTUW.
  2. Lower Cutoff – The cutoff for Delhi candidates is generally lower than for outsiders.
  3. Eligibility – Students must have passed Class 12 from a recognized school in Delhi.
  4. No Effect on Rank – It does not directly impact JEE Main rank but improves admission chances.
  5. Private Colleges – Some private colleges also have state quota benefits

Hope it helps !

Yes, having a Delhi schooling state quota can significantly help in your JEE Mains rank, as it allows you to apply for seats in Delhi colleges under the "Home State Quota," which means you can get a better college with a relatively lower All India Rank compared to students from other states applying to the same college.
