Hi Harshvardhan,

No, JEE Exam would not be useful if you are aspiring to get admission at Cambridge University. They have their own entrance exams. JEE Exam is useful for those who want to get admission in IIT's, NIT's and other Indian institutions.

I hope this information helps you.

Good Luck!

Hello,


Here is the full detail of how you can get into the prestigious Cambridge University :

Entry requirements

Class XII

Applications from students taking Class XII examinations will only be considered as competitive for applying to the University of Cambridge if additional qualifications are also being taken.

Applicants studying towards Class XII will be expected to be on course to attain at a very high level in relevant subjects. Grades expected depend on the Board with which you are studying.

  • CISCE and NIOS - applicants will require scores of 90% or higher in five or more relevant subjects

  • CBSE - applicants will require five or more A1 grades in relevant subjects

  • State Boards - applicants will be considered on a case by case basis. Applicants will typically require scores of 95% or equivalent in five or more relevant subjects.

Offers for Class XII applicants will be made conditional on achievement inClass XII and an additional qualification, with different routes available depending on the Cambridge course for which you are applying. Details are given below about the offer levels for the levels to be achieved in addition to the above performance in Class XII.

  • College Board Advanced Placement Tests - offers for all Cambridge courses (though please see the note on Mathematics under STEP below) may be made conditional on achieving grades of 5 in five or more AP Tests

  • IIT-JEE (Advanced) - offers for Chemical Engineering, Engineering, Natural Sciences (Physical) may be made conditional on a rank of <2000 in the IIT JEE (Advanced)

  • STEP - offers for Computer Science, Economics and Mathematics may be conditional on achievement in STEP.
Please note that all Mathematics offers will have a STEP condition attached (including for applicants taking AP Tests or the IIT JEE)
I hope this helps.
