Hi

Which category do you belong to?

I am considering you from general category

It's quite difficult to predict jee mains 2021 cut off to be eligible for JEE advanced, 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

You can check the same at our page the link is provided below

https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-main-cutoff

From above we can see that, in 2020,  a general category student required a minimum of  90.3765335 percentile to qualifying JEE mains 2020 to be eligible for JEE advanced examination

So ,  to be on the safer side to clear JEE mains 2021 cut off being from general category  you should try to get at least 90-95  percentile, in terms of marks it is around 90-100 marks. For this marks vs percentile, you can use our rank predictor for which link is provided below

But yes, to get a seat in good colleges like NITs ,you should target at least around 150 marks.

If you have any other doubt then you can always reach us to clear them :) we are always available to help you out and guide you

Thankyou
