Hello,

To get seat in a college through JEE Main you need to score minimum cut off percentile. The qualifying cut off percentile changes every year depending on total number of candidates appeared, difficulty level of exam and number of seats available etc. You have not mentioned if you come under OBC-CL or OBC-NCL. You will be considered as general category is you belong to OBC-CL. In 2020 the cut off percentile was 90.3765335 percentile for general category and for OBC-NCL it was 72.8887969. SO you need to score minimum 90-100 marks to if you belong to general category and if you belong to OBC-NCL you need to score minimum 80-90 marks to qualify. Scoring the minimum cut off percentile may not get you seat in a decent college. You need to score minimum 170 marks or above to get seat in a decent college. The cut off rank will be different for each college.
