Pabba according to last year marks bs rank criteria with 170 marks in the JEE Advanced examination under the general category tab you son can get a rank around 12,000. Although according to experts as the difficulty of paper in this exam was more in comparison to the last year so it is expected that cut-off will be lower which means that your son can get a little better rank with the same marks. you can expect the rank to be in the range of 10000-11,000.
