The biggest confusion till date with each student remains the same. It is again the ‘ Improvement Criterion ’ redesigned by the JAB.
The changed rule states that -
- Candidates who appeared in Class XII (or equivalent) examination for the first time in 2017 and wish to (or have to) reappear in 2018 with the objective to qualify through top 20 percentile cut-off criteria, should reappear in all the subjects. For such candidates, top 20 percentile cut-off for 2018 will be considered.
- If a candidate has passed his/her Class XII (or equivalent) in 2017 and wishes to improve his/her aggregate marks to meet the “aggregate marks of 75% (or 65% for SC, ST and PwD) criterion”, he/she can reappear for any number of subjects he/she wishes for improvement. The percentage marks in this situation will be calculated by considering the marks obtained in 2017 or 2018, whichever is higher, in the respective subjects, in his/her two attempts in 2017 and 2018.
All the very best and good luck.

Hello,
No it is not mandatory for you to give improvement in all the five subjects if you are planning to appear in JEE Main 2018.
In case you have not been able to score the requisite marks to be eligible to get admission in IITs/NITs/IIITs, then you can give improvement in the subjects in which you have scored less and ensure that you meet the required marks.
If you want to score 75% marks so that you can become eligible for admission in NITs/IIITs/IITs, then you may just write improvement in those papers where you have scored less.
Good luck.
