Hi

It's quite difficult to predict jee mains 2021 cut off, as cut off percentile  for jee mains keeps changing every year  depending upon various factors like  number of students that appeared in the exam, kind of marks obtained by them , toughness level of the examination for different shifts of the exam etc.

But yes,

on analysing previous year cutoff of JEE Mains, JEE mains 2021 expected qualifying  CUT OFF percentile is given below for different categories:


.                  .  JEE      MAIN CUT   OFF    PERCENTILE


Category jeemain2020 jeemain2021 expected off


General :-     90.3765335                 90-95


GEN-EWS :-  70.2435518                  70 -75


OBC-NCL :-  72.8887969                   70 -75


SC     :-           50.1760245                  50 -55


ST :-                39.0696101                  40 - 45


PwD :-            0.0618524                      1- 2
