Hello Aspirant,

See your rank does not matter while getting qualified for JEE-Advance because it is correct that only around 22.5 Lakhs candidates get selected for JEE-Advance but those 2.5 Lakh consists of SC, ST, OBC-NCL, EWS as well as PwD candidates so combinedly it is 2.5 lakhs not for each category. So now only percentile matters, it decides whether the candidate will be qualifying for JEE-Advance or not.


See the qualifying cut-off percentiles which needs to be cleared by any candidate to sit in JEE-Advance is released along with the final result of JEE-Main and for JEE-Main 2022 the final result will be released after both the attempts will be completed and the final result will be on the basis of your best score amongst both attempts.


As the cut-offs are released along with the JEE-Main 2022 result so for now you can get an idea from JEE-Main 2021 qualifying cut-offs that are enlisted below :-


==>> Common Rank List (CRL) - 87.8992241-100.0000000 Percentile

==>> GEN-EWS - 66.2214845-87.8950071 Percentile

==>> Other Backward Classes (OBC-NCL) - 68.0234447-87.8950071 Percentile

==>> Scheduled Caste (SC) - 46.8825338-87.8950071 Percentile

==>> Scheduled Tribe (ST) - 34.6728999 87.8474721 Percentile

==>> PwD - 0.0096375-87.8273359 Percentile

So to be on the safer side of qualifying you should secure at least 90+ percentile being a General candidate.


Note that in above table it is not the actual cut-off for JEE-Main 2022 but previous year's cut-off.
