Hello Balaji,

Thanks for contacting Careers360.

A general candidate needs to score 75% marks or be in top 20 percentile of a particular board. Top 20 percentile means you have to score more than 80% students of your board.

However ,board exam results no more decide merit list for addmission to IITs and NITs. Above criteria needs to be satisfied for admission but they won't be affecting anyones’s rank.

For OBC-NCL same criteria is there ,for SC/ST one needs to score 65% marks for qualifying.

Hope it helps.

Good luck!!

After considering the JEE Main percentile, your probable rank will be194,443 - 224,443and your probable category rank range will be10491 - 12091.
With this much rank or percentile there are decent chances that you will qualify for JEE Advanced.
