Hello Aspirant,

The criteria of obtaining a minimum of 75% marks (65% for SC/ST category)  in class 12 or equivalent as an eligibility criteria for jee advanced has been removed. Similarly for admission in Nits and IITs.
This was due to cancellation of board exams.

I hope this helps

Hello Aspirant,

NTA does not have any right to make any changes in JEE-Advance cut-off or in anything other the JEE-Main qualifying cut-off which is required for JEE-Advance but it is true that 75% criteria has been waived off for this year for JEE-Advance as well and it was waived off by Indian Government in the wake of COVID-19.

So if you are able to score the percentile more than or equal to the JEE-Main 2021 qualifying cut-offs then you will be able to sit for JEE-Advance if you have passed your class 12th either in 2020 or in 2021. As of now the cut-offs are not out but on the basis of previous year's cut-off, expected cut-offs are enlisted below  :-

  • Common Rank List (CRL) - 90 .3765335
  • GEN-EWS - 70 .2435518
  • Other Backward Classes (OBC-NCL) - 72.8887969
  • Scheduled Caste (SC) - 50.1760245
  • Scheduled Tribe (ST) - 39.0696101
  • PwD - 0.0618524
