hello aspirant,

As of now its tough to say what could be the cutoff for colleges because the cutoff changes every year due to many factors like difficulty level of paper,total students appearing for exam etc.however based on previous year analysis,we can fix a boundary of cutoff for particular colleges. You need minimum of 96-97+percentile which is 115-120+marks according to https://www.google.com/amp/s/engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-main-marks-vs-percentile/amp .but keep a high target is very important because we don't know how the cutoff changes every year.if it rises the high scored students would be benefited because it doesn't affect them.so having a target above 98-99+is suggestible and it's around 180+for more information you can refer to https://www.google.com/amp/s/engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-main-cutoff-for-top-gftis/amp

Hello there,
According to the previous year data, you need to get marks around 150 to 170 approximately to get good government colleges in the country. Now see, we cannot exactly tell you the marks because the cut-off rank changes every year depending on the difficulty of the paper,and the number of candidates appearing for it. So it may be different this year. You need to score fairly 150 marks to get decent colleges with the top branches.
