Top 20 percentile of guy is compared by the Year when he passed 12th or the year when he do the entrance exam of jee mains??
The top 20 percentile cut off for droppers will be for the year when they gave the class 12 exams. Meaning, that if a person has dropped for 2020 JEE, then top 20 percentile for droppers will be for 2019 class 12 exams and not 2020 class 12 exams.
Also, if you are a student of CBSE then 75+ percentage will be equivalent to top 20 percentile.
Thank you.
