Dear student,

You can get IIT by writing JEE Advanced exam, then by clearing it.

Please note that you can get some other colleges to on the basis of JEE Advanced score.

With this you have to pass JEE Main and 12th exam too from a recognized board.

Now let us discuss in detail. See, first you will appear for JEE Main and in this exam you have score good to qualify for sitting in JEE Advanced exam.

You can check the cutoff marks and percentile of JEE Main of previous year by going through the link below.

In case if you have given JEE Main exam and want to predict your rank, then you easily do it by going through the rank predictor tool. Below I am pasting the link for it.

Now when you appear in JEE Advanced, you need to score that much marks that can get you a rank below 10,000. Because for a General student, a rank below 10,000 is must to get any seat in any IIT.

To get a rank under 10,000 you need to score atleast 36% in JEE Advanced paper. There are two papers of JEE Advanced help in a single day and the total marks keep varying each years.

You can check the patter, syllabus and all about JEE Advanced by going through the links below.
