Dear Aspirants/Guardians

Cutoff mark cannot be predicted exactly because it depends upon various factors.

You can go through the below-provided link of Careers360 where you can find predicted cutoff score by various institutes and check previous year cutoff for various NITs. Right now keep working hard for your upcoming exams.

Link for checking mark vs. rank:- Https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-main-result-marks-vs-rank

All the very best and good luck.

Hello
First of all the paper was tough / tricky / lengthy whatever, due to which mostly students are scoring less than their expectations and secondly , this year the number of students qualifying for JEE ADVANCED will increase by 4,000.
Now, since last year cutoff was 80 .
Hence , this year it may not be above 70 .It will be in range of 60-70.
So considering that ,
For OBC category it may lie somewhere between 38-45.
( Its my estimation though, it may varies)
Thank you.

Respected Mam,
The cut off for OBC changes year to year and is basically on basis of percentile of students marks. Last year , the cut off for OBC was 49 while the year previous, it was near 60. Therefore , it is u predictable. However, if you have above 65, you need not worry as the marks usually lingers around 50-60.
Hope I was able to help you.
Thank you.
