Hi


It's quite difficult to predict JEE mains qualifying cutoff to be eligible for JEE advanced examination as it keeps changing every year depending upon various factors like :-

*number of students that appeared in the  jee main exam,

*kind of marks obtained by them ,

*toughness level of the jee main examination for different shift etc.


But yes,

When we go through previous year trend then

JEE mains 2021 expected qualifying  CUT OFF percentile to be eligible for JEE advanced  is given below for different categories on the basis of past year trends :

.                  .  JEE      MAIN CUT   OFF    PERCENTILE

Category jeemain2020 jeemain2021 expected off

General :-     90.3765335                 90-95

GEN-EWS :-  70.2435518                  70 -75

hello aspirant,

To write jee advanced you need to qualify jeemains first.There are cutoffs for different categories for qualifying jeemains.you did not mention your category considering you from GEN category below are cutoffs for qualify jeemains:

gen category:90-95

gen ews:70-75

obc ncl:70-75

sc:50-55

st:40-45

pwd:1-2

note that each year cutoffs change due to may factors like total students appearing for exam,difficulty level of paper etc factors so as of now its tough to say what are exact cutoffs.the above mentioned are based on previous year cutoff.if you get minimum of these cutoff in jeemains based on category then you have high chances to qualify jeemains to write jee advanced.

hope this helps,

thankyou.
