Hello Aspirant,

It would be difficult to tell you the qualifying cutoff & admission cutoff. But a score of more than 85 percentile, You should have decent chance to qualify the exam for JEE Advanced eligibility.

As a General category this score seems less to qualify the exam. You may calculate your expected rank by this formula

100 - your total percentile score is the percentage of people ahead of you. 874469 are the number of candidates appeared for Jan exam. So rank formula is (100 - your total score) X 869010 /100. If the number of candidates for April exam increased to 1200000 then your final rank shall be (100 - your total score) X 1200000/100

Using the formula
(100 - your total score) X 869010 /100

B.Tech/B.Arch Admissions OPEN

Apply to Amity University-Noida B.Tech Admissions 2026

Your probable rank will be 1,65,111.

I would suggest you to appear for JEE Main 2020 April Session again. You can also use JEE Main College Predictor tool to know your admission possibilities.

Good Luck!


Good Luck!

Hi aspirant,

It will vary base on your category. If you belong to general category, you should have nearly 90 marks to get a seat in IITs, NITs and CFTIs. 81 percentile is enough if you belong to SC, ST, OBC-NCL and EWS categories.

To predict the college use,

Hope it helps.
