JEE Advanced 2025 Cutoff (OUT): Category Wise Minimum Marks Needed to Qualify IIT JEE, Previous Year Cutoffs (2024 - 2016)

The JEE Advanced 2025 cutoff will be released with the result of JEE Advanced 2025. Until then, candidates can check below the JEE Advanced cutpff from the previous years:

The JEE Advanced 2024 cutoff of the common rank list is 30.34%; 27.30% for the GEN-EWS rank list and OBC-NCL rank list; 15.17% for SC, ST, and PwD rank lists across all categories; and 7.58% for Preparatory course rank lists. Last year the cutoff for inclusion in the CRL was 23.89%; 21.50% for GEN-EWS and OBC-NCL rank list; 11.95% for SC, ST and PWD rank list across categories; and 5.98% for the preparatory course rank lists.

All those candidates who have score above the cutoff marks in their respective category can register for JoSAA counselling for participating in the IIT seat allotment process. Note that qualifying the JEE Advaced cutoff will not guarantee seat in the IITs. various factos are there in play while alloting seats in the IITs. These factors include demand of a course and IIT, number of seats on offer, reservation criteria etc.

It is a very relatable thing. A good score in JEE Advanced will depend on various factors one of them being the cutoff. Further, the cutoff will depend on various factors like the difficulty level, paper pattern, number of seats in the IITs, number of candidtaes taking the exam and so on. Therefore, it is difficult to say what will be a safe score. However, 300+ is a safe score in JEE Advanced if the total marks in the paper is 360.

JEE Advanced 2024 cutoff has been the highest in the past 6 year. This year the cutoff marks has been 109 marks for the Common rank list (CRL) out of 360 marks. For the GEN-EWS and OBC-NCL rank list the cutoff marks is 98; for SC/ST/Common-PwD/GEN-EWS-PwD/OBC-NCL-PwD/SC-PwD/ST-PwD is 54 marks and for Preparatory course rank lists it is 27 marks.

The definition of a good IIT can be subjective. The candidates who wish to get admisison to the first generation of the IITs like IIT Bombay, IIT Madras, IIT Kharagpur, IIT Kanpur, IIT Delhi, IIT Guwahati, and IIT Roorkee must have a high score of 250+ marks out of 360 marks. However, this is not applicable for all courses offered by these IITs. Every course and IIT has different demand and seat ratio which effects the admission of the candidates. Hence it is very difficult to say what will be the minimum score or rank required in JEE Advanced to get into a good IIT.

Candidates must aim to score as high as possible in the exam to be able to get a seat in the first generation of the IITs as these IITs see the most demand and craze among students in academia.

There are two types of Joint Entrance Examination Advanced cutoffs - qualifying and admission cutoffs. The qualifying cutoff is relesaed with the result. Last year, the cutoff marks has been 109 marks for the Common rank list (CRL) out of 360 marks. For the GEN-EWS and OBC-NCL rank list the cutoff marks is 98; for SC/ST/Common-PwD/GEN-EWS-PwD/OBC-NCL-PwD/SC-PwD/ST-PwD is 54 marks and for Preparatory course rank lists it is 27 marks. The admission cutoff will be released by during the seat allotment process by Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA). The admisison cutoff is released round wise in the form of closing ranks for all courses and categories.

JEE Advanced 2025 result will be out on June 2, 2025. Candidates can check and download the JEE Advanced 2025 scorecard under their respective login on jeeadv. ac. in. To Download JEE Advanced 2025 scorecard, candidates have to use 7-digit roll number, date of birth in DD/MM/YYYY format, and the 10-digit phone number that they used while registering for JEE (Advanced). Also, category-wise All India Ranks (AIR) of successful candidates will be available through the JEE Advanced 2025 online portal after the results are declared. Text messages will also be sent to the candidates to their registered mobile numbers. Only those candidates who will secure minimum marks in JEE Advanced 2025, as prescribed by the IITs will be included in the AIR list for JoSAA counselling and IIT admissions. Allotment of seats will be solely based on the category-wise All India Rank in the JEE Advanced 2025.

It's difficult to predict the minimum marks required to get selected in the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) in JEE Advanced as it depends on various factors such as the difficulty level of the exam, the number of students appearing for the exam, and their performance. However, to give you an idea, the minimum marks required to get selected in the IITs vary from year to year and also differ based on the category of the candidate. In general, the cutoff marks for the general category candidates range between 80-90 marks out of 360, while for the reserved categories, it may range from 45-70 marks out of 360. It's important to note that the cutoff marks are just an indication, and the actual cutoffs may vary depending on the factors mentioned above. It's always advisable to aim for a high score in the JEE Advanced exam to increase your chances of getting selected in the IITs.

In 2024, the IITs are offering a total of 17,740 seats across various courses and categories through JEE Advanced 2024. With 48,248 candidates qualifying for IIT admissions this year, the number of aspirants exceeds the available IIT seats by almost threefold.

Compared to the previous year, the number of seats in the IITs has increased by 355 seats. Among the 23 Indian Institutes of Technology, IIT Kharagpur leads with 1,899 seats, followed by IIT BHU with 1,589 seats, IIT Bombay with 1,368 seats, IIT Roorkee with 1,353 seats, and IIT Kanpur with 1,210 seats.

IIT Bombay BTech cutoff 2024 got released across multiple specialisations. Based on the Round 1 seat allotment, the BTech cutoff scores ranged between 68 and, 6969 for the General AII India category students. Among all the BTech specialisations, BTech in CSE is the most competitive specialisation. The Computer Science and Engineering Last Round cutoff concluded at 68 for the General AI category.

Furthermore, according to IIT Bombay OBC AI category cutoff 2024, the Last Round closing ranks varied from 50 to 3256. Under which, CSE had the Last Round cutoff of 50. For more information, click here.

Firstly admissions to National Institute of Technology are given based on the performance in examination called JEE Mains. As a matter of fact there is no other examination which is required to be cleared by the student to get admission in these institutes. On the other hand JEE Advanced examination will lead students for admission in IIT's. Thus we can SEE that these two examinations are required for taking admission in two different Sets of Institutions. Also there is no other examination that can get a student admission in either of these to Sets of institutions. In view of foregoing, we can conclude that these are the only two examinations required to be given and no other examination has any score for enabling admission in these two Sets of institutions.

The minimum marks required in JEE Mains to qualify for JEE Advanced 2025 will be announced with the JEE main 2025 final result after session 2 exams. Last year's minimum marks in JEE Mains to qualify for JEE Advanced were:

2024:
