Dear aspirant,

Yes giving an improvement exam makes you eligible if you match the the following criteria.

According to HRD ministry, 40% weightage is given to BOARD marks and 60% toJEE marks hence if you score 75% and above or your name is in the top 20 percentile you are eligible to appear for JEE and if you perform well you can get in NIITs also .

all the best.

Hello aspirant,

Yes you can give improvement exam, but if you are already more than 75% you don't need to. It all depends, like if you do not have 75% marks 12th,then in order for being eligible for admission through IIT JEE , you have to take the improvement exam. ... So, if you have score more than 75%, then there is no need for giving improvement in all the 5 subjects ,as you are already eligible for JEE exam. If you get lower marks in a subject in improvement than you previous marks will be added. Because its the examination for improvement , and if there is “no improvement ”, then obviously the previous marks are the final.

Admissions in IITs/ NITs / IIITs and other CFTIs – at least 75% marks in class 12 th , or be in the top 20 percentile in class 12 th class exam conducted by the respective board, to qualify for admissions. For SC/ST candidates, the qualifying marks are 65% marks .

Hope your query is cleared. All the best. Good luck.
