Hello student,

The cutoff for mechanical engineering in JEE Main for the SC category varies each year depending on several factors, including:

• Number of applicants: The more applicants, the higher the cutoff.
• Difficulty level of the exam: A more difficult exam can lead to lower cutoffs.
• Number of seats available: More seats generally mean lower cutoffs.

To get an accurate idea of the cutoff for your specific year, it's best to refer to the official JEE Main results and counseling information.

However, based on past trends, the cutoff for mechanical engineering in the SC category is generally lower than the general category.
