JEE Main 2024 Result: How are cut-offs determined?

JEE Main sets two types of cut-offs:

Qualifying Cut-off: This is the minimum percentile or mark needed to qualify for JEE Advanced or to participate in counseling for NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs.

Admission Cut-off: These are the opening and closing ranks of various institutes and branches based on the candidate's category. These ranks reflect the competition level for specific seats.

Cut-offs for JEE Main are determined by the National Testing Agency (NTA) considering these factors:

• Number of Applicants vs. Seats: There's a limited number of seats available in NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs compared to the number of JEE Main candidates. Therefore, with more applicants, the cut-off percentile or marks tend to be higher.

• Difficulty Level of the Exam: If the JEE Main exam is challenging, the cut-off percentile might be slightly lower to accommodate overall performance. Conversely, an easier exam might result in a higher cut-off as more students achieve better scores.

• Performance of Test Takers: NTA evaluates the overall scores of all candidates to set the cut-off. It's typically established at a specific percentile (e.g., top 90% for the General category) or based on achieving a certain minimum mark.

JEE Mains 2024: Students who achieved 100 NTA score

Compared to 2023, the count of 100 percentilers has risen by 13, with a total of 56 students attaining flawless NTA scores in Paper 1 (BE/B.Tech). Among them, two are girls: Sanvi Jain from Karnataka and Shayna Sinha from Delhi. The remaining 54 are male candidates.

JEE Main Result 2024: JEE Advanced Qualification

To qualify for JEE Advanced, students must rank among the top 250,000 scorers (inclusive of all categories) in the B.E./B.Tech. paper of JEE (Main) 2024. Here's the seat reservation breakdown:

• 10% for General - Economically Weaker Section (GEN-EWS)
• 27% for Other Backward Classes - Non-Creamy Layer (OBC-NCL)
• 15% for Scheduled Caste (SC)
• 7.5% for Scheduled Tribe (ST)
• 40.5% Open for All (OPEN)

Additionally, within each category, there's an extra 5% horizontal reservation available for Persons with Disabilities (PwD) candidates.

Note: The total number of candidates may be slightly greater than 2,50,000 in the presence of “tied” ranks / scores in any category

JEE Main 2024: Counselling

JEE Main 2024 counseling marks the final step for securing admission into engineering colleges post the JEE Main 2024 exam. JoSAA oversees this process, allocating seats in institutions such as IITs, NITs, and GFTIs.
