JEE Mains or Advance Qualifying Intermediate Marx Only Second Year 75% Says It's right or wrong?

75% eligibility criterion for both JEE Main and JEE Advanced pertains to the aggregate marks obtained in the entire Class 12 (or equivalent) examination , not solely the second-year marks.

The assertion that only second-year marks are considered for the 75% eligibility criterion is incorrect . For both JEE Main and JEE Advanced, the aggregate marks of the entire Class 12 examination are taken into account.

Hello there,

For JEE Main and JEE Advanced eligibility:

• You need to have passed your Class 12 or equivalent exam .

• Many institutes, including IITs, require a minimum of 75% aggregate marks in Class 12 (both years combined) or be in the top 20 percentile of your board.

• It is not only the second-year marks that matter but the overall qualifying exam marks.

• For JEE Advanced eligibility, the 75% criterion or top 20 percentile applies to the overall Class 12 results, not just the second-year marks.

So, considering only second-year marks of 75% is incorrect ; the entire qualifying exam performance is considered.
