Hello,


If we talk about eligibility for appearing in JEE mains then there is no percentage requirement because the minimum requirement is that a candidate should have passed class 12 or qualifying the exam in 2018 or 2019 or appearing in class 12 or equivalent qualifying exam in 2020 can also apply for JEE Main.
But when it comes to admission in NITs, IIITs and CFTIs admissions, then the candidates should have obtained a minimum of 75% aggregate marks or be in the top 20 percentile of their respective boards. For SC/ST category, a minimum of 65% marks required.

I hope this helps.

Hey Swasti,

The minimum percentage required to appear in JEEMain examination is 75% or be in the top 20 percentile in class 12th exam conducted by the respective boards. It is only for the students who belong to general category. For SC/ ST students the qualifying marks are 65 % . You can appear for JEE mains exam for three consecutive years. The exam is conducted twice in a year,so you can appear in both the attempts.

Hope it helps !
