Hello learner,

Board exam marks will never be an entry pass for getting admissions at NITs or IITs. In order to get into those prestigious  institutions, you need to equip yourself for cracking JEE Mains and JEE Advanced.

JEE Mains is the preliminary test conducted by NTA(National Testing Agency). JEE Mains is for acquiring admissions at National Institute of Technology(NITs) and Indian Institute of Information Technology(IIITs).

JEE Advanced is followed by JEE Mains which is an entry pass to get into Indian Institute of Technology(IITs). Only those candidates who are screened from JEE Mains are eligible for appearing in JEE Advanced.

So prepare yourself to face JEE Mains and JEE Advanced. Invest your sincere efforts, schedule your time, start early, be thorough with the syllabus, choose appropriate reference materials.

Begin today!Good Luck!

Hello,
For admission into IITs the eligibility criteria is that ths student must have secured minimum 75% in aggregate in their class 12 boards. It is 65% in case of St/SC/OBC. They can also be in the top 20 percentile of their respective boards. Also, students must qualify in JEE mains first and then qualify in jee Advanced to be eligible for admission into IITs.
The same above criteria apply for admissions into NITs IIITs and GFTIs after qualifying in JEE mains.
